 I have a requirement to process requests from system A to system B, here Appian acts as a mediator between system A &amp;amp; system B, like validating and grouping the data, etc. 
 There will be a huge data flow between system A and Appian(~40,000</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: How to provide a Database lookup table to third party system</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/50952?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 18 Dec 2017 18:11:19 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:6a85a3c7-5bfb-4244-b66d-42164cbf91ec</guid><dc:creator>aswinb608</dc:creator><description>create a query entity of the table and pass that data as a json response to a web api&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to provide a Database lookup table to third party system</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/50504?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 30 Nov 2017 07:18:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:aec740f6-85ef-4f13-ae3c-975416f706f2</guid><dc:creator>aloks0189</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi &lt;a href="/members/someshwarp"&gt;someshwarp&lt;/a&gt;  I believe, you system A is going to communicate Appian using Web API, in such case,  sending that huge amount of data to this service is never a good idea. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However if that is your requirement you can send those data to Appian Web API in form of JSON through body, now Appian Web API will trigger a process and will pass entire body to the process through parameter, just to avoid huge data processing in Web API.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You need to place parsing logic along with lookup operation and return the final response as outbound to the system B, in such case system B must have an API exposed which will be invoked by Appian once your request got processed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope this will give an overview to proceed further in order to achieve your requirement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
