Is there a way that I can use to make an API call to trigger a workflow?
We want to start a workflow to Load Data into MDM after the data is refreshed in all source systems, each time it is refreshed.
Please suggest if there is a way do define a service for this.
Thanks in Advance :)

Hi
Yes, as long as your ewf file is already deployed on the server, then the execute by running HTTP call will work. You just need to make sure the URL pattern matches the deployed server URL, and the ewf file name, and supply all variables defined, even if you want to pass null variable.
There can also be security involved with invoking workflow, in which case you will need to pass Authorization header, details are on the same doc page.

Looks like what I am looking for. I’ll check this.
I have one question though - Is Workflow HTTP Remote API available out of the box or we need to enable it in some way?
Thanks in Advance :)
