Hi,

We are getting data from External services in a file format. So is it possible to start the process model once I get a file from external source ?

    I am talking about Web APIs, yes. And whether you send the file, or the records just depends on your specific use case.

    We can, but there needs to be Something that needs to constantly check for the external source response like  for example human interaction (Clicking on refresh button .... and small if statement on button which runs process if you receive a file). Can you tell us more about your scenario??

    Oh ok.. So our system basically does the transaction pricing for the transactions received via a document file from the external system  . Now the new requirement is , the client wants to do some validations using Appian process model before sending into our system for pricing.
