JEAN PIERRE
We need to integrate with a system that exposes business entities by an OData connection point.
Is this done by service-backed records?
We need to do all CRUD Operations.
Has someone experiences to share in this matter?
Has someone some code examples?...

    I think that the Appian documentation is a good point to start with. See

    forum.appian.com/.../Records_Tutorial

    There is an example on who to access external data. I would prefer to use the JSON format as the XML parser in Appian does have trouble with some quite common things like namespaces and external XSDs.

    That allows you to show data. Add some processes as related actions to modify it.

    There are plugins to do HTTP requests as well as JSON processing. These two help you to parse the data when reading and to build the data structures when writing back.
