  1. Running the sample workflow for processing orders retrieved from REST web services
    The RestfulWebServiceWF workflow shows how to process orders retrieved from REST web services that simulate a web site for ordering books. A REST web service input device, a CallRESTService step, and a REST web service notification exchange data using the web services. The workflow also gives examples of these steps: ConvertJSONToXML, ApplyXSLTransform, CreateJobsFromXML, and DownloadFile.
