Querying the Web Service

You can query the web service by including a resource ID in the URL or by including a filter expression in the URL.

In the Administrator tool, click the REST URL on the web service application

General Properties

panel.

The Data Integration Service lists the resources in the web service.

The following image shows the resource in the Orders_Web_Service:

Click the

Orders_Resource

link.

The web service returns all the output data from the resource mapping.

To search for a specific customer, add the resource name and the resource ID to the end of the URL in the browser. The link is

http://psrl817.informatica.com:8195/DataIntegrationService/RestService/Orders_Web_Service/Orders_Resource/10

The following image shows the results of a query that searches for customer number 10 in the Orders_Resource:

To search by customer name instead of by the key, include a filter condition in the URL instead of the resource ID:
