HTTP Delete Method

The Data Integration Service uses the HTTP Delete method to remove data through a REST web service. Use the Delete method to remove a resource or a collection of resources.

When you configure the REST Web Service Consumer transformation to use the Delete method, you configure the input ports, the method input, the method output, and the output ports.

Example

You want to delete part number 502 from the HypoStores products database. The web service uses the following URL to identify a part:

http://www.HypoStores.com/products/ProductDetails?Part_No=<Part_No>

Enter the following base URL:

http://www.HypoStores.com/products/ProductDetails

The following table shows the input port that you might define:

Port Type	Argument Name	Input Value
Argument	Part_No	502

The following table shows output ports that you might define:

Port Type	Port Name	Return Value
Output	Response	<Response returned by the web service>
