Hi All,

I have a integration point in process and it is returning HTTP Response.

I would like to know how to convert HTTP Response to CDT .

in HTTP Response there is body attribute which i want to convert directly to CDT if possible.

I have already created a CDT with the same structure.

Example :

body={coord={lon=-83.1801, lat=42.3349}, weather={id=501, main=Rain, description=moderate rain, icon=10d}, base=stations, main={temp=20.35, feels_like=20.84, temp_min=18.83, temp_max=21.73, pressure=1017, humidity=92}, visibility=10000, wind={speed=3.09, deg=80}, rain={1h=1.5}, clouds={all=90}, dt=1626440173, sys={type=2, id=2009516, country=US, sunrise=1626430214, sunset=1626484018}, timezone=-14400, id=0, name=Dearborn, cod=200}

Thanks,

Gaurav

    You can try casting the body to the CDT or create a new CDT object and assign the values from the body.

    thanks for your response , so should i use a script task and then do this transformation?

    Yeah, you can call your integration via Script Task or Call Integration Service in the process model and do the conversion.

    It's usually easiest to do this directly in the Call Integration Smart Service Itself. If you use "AC!Result.body", you can save the results directly to a process variable that uses a CDT list and Appian will cast automatically.

    Dear [mention:6b9f80ff18f9420082d13ef2d5121d56:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05], thank you so much for your guidance.

    My bad , not sure why I did not click on + sign and see if I can map individual parameters of Result object. 

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent Appian's Tutorials videos , in last 1 month i have gone through all tutorial videos posted @Appian online course site.

    The way you have explained the concepts are amazing. Great Work [emoticon:1435ff2429184e17bc948e4f19178e1e]!
