HTTP Put Method

The Data Integration Service uses the HTTP Put method to update data through a REST web service. Use the Post method to update a resource or a collection of resources. If the data does not exist, the Data Integration Service creates the resource or collection of resources.

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

Example

You want to update the unit price for part 501 in the HypoStores products database. The web service uses the following URL for part 501:

http://www.HypoStores.com/products/ProductDetails/501

Enter the following base URL:

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

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

Port Type	Port Name	Input Value
URL	URL_Part_No	501
Input	Price_USD	9.99

The following table shows the output ports that you might define:

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