Azure Integration: Passing off queries from Appian to Azure

Question

Hello. 
 
 In my particular use case. I need to integrate Appian to Azure. Mainly because I want Azure to conduct a query for me. The reason for this is that I am dealing with a database type that is not supported by Appian so I need to find a workaround. The workaround is to pass the query from appian to azure, make Azure execute the query and retrieve the required data from the database, and pass the results back to Appian. 
 
 I am fairly new to both Appian and Azure. 
 Can anyone here give me a rough guideline as to where to start?

I recommend starting with the HTTP connected system object https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.3/http-connected-system.html which is where you can put in authentication information. You can then create an Integration object which will leverage your connected system. Play around with the integration using rule inputs and once you finalize the object you can add the integration to your interfaces or process model.
