Can you host a web service in Camunda

Can we host a web service in Camunda ? So that clients from other JVMs can invoke this WS.

Thanks,

Hi Sudhanshu,

There is a complete REST API that you can use to invoke Camunda.

REST API details.

So clients will invoke Camunda through REST Apis ?
Does camunda support Webservice ?

Hi sonyantony,

So clients will invoke Camunda through REST Apis ?
Yes, clients can do that.

Does camunda support Webservice ?
Not sure what you mean but this seems like a separate topic - I think you should create a new post for this.

Cheers,

Was asking if Camunda gives a web service interface so that clients can invoke Camunda through web service ( just like they can - you said - through REST )

Oh, you mean a SOAP Endpoint?

Yes sir
( SOAP/wsdl )

There is nothing out of the box for this. Probably the easiest thing to do, is to create your own. You can do this by hand or generate wsld from annotations.

Spring has good support for this, check out Spring Web Service and should fit pretty well with Camunda.

It might even be able to run concurrently with the REST endpoints.

Cheers, Conor
