Data services

Use the services resource to run industry data services using Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services REST API.

Industry data services refer to a collection of pre-built data services designed to parse, validate, and serialize industry-specific data standards. These data services are available on the data service repository and you can use REST APIs to run them.

When you use the services resource, use the following request header format:

<METHOD><base URL>
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID: <SessionId>

To run a data service, use the following URI:

/DSRepo/rest/api/v1/services/run/<service name>

Include the following fields in the request:

Field	Type	Required	Description
agentGroupId	String	Yes	ID of the Secure agent group to process the request.
input			Default input port for the data service.
type	string	Yes	Whether the input is a file or data. Use one of the following values: FILE: Input is a file. BUFFER: Input is data.

POST request example

To run an HL7 data service, you might send a request similar to the following example:


POST <serverUrl>/DSRepo/rest/api/v1/services/run/HL7_2_6_ADT_A01_Parser
Content-Type: application/json
Accept:application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID:2l0oeVx22Rujiej7yTokmT
{    
	"agentGroupId": "010BM02500000000000K",    
	"input": {        
		"type": "FILE",        
		"value": "/root/TEST/v25_s2.txt"    
	},    
	"output": {        
		"type": "FILE",        
		"value":"/root/TEST/"    
	},    
	"additionalInputs": [],    
	"serviceParameters": [],    
	"additionalOutputs": [        
		{            
			"name": "Errors",            
			"type": "FILE",
			"value":"/root/TEST/"                   
		},        
		{            
			"name": "ErrorsFound",            
			"type": "FILE",
			"value":"/root/TEST/"                    
		}    
	]    
}

POST response

When you use a POST request to run a data service, it returns a success response if successful or an error object if an error occurs. If the request is unsuccessful, the response includes a reason for the failure.

POST response example

If the request is successful, you might receive a response similar to the following example:


{    
	"output": "/root/TEST/HL7_2_6_ADT_A01_Parser_output.xml",
	"additionalOutputs": [
  {            
			"type": "file",            
			"value": "/root/TEST/HL7_2_6_ADT_A01_Parser_Errors.xml",            
			"name": "Errors"        
		},        
		{            
			"type": "file",            
			"value": "/root/TEST/HL7_2_6_ADT_A01_Parser_ErrorsFound.xml",            
			"name": "ErrorsFound"        
		}
