Call REST API Step

Description

The Call REST API step allows you to seamlessly integrate a third party software with Axonator via a REST API. Once connected, you can send and receive data to and from the third party software, without having to update either of the two platforms manually. Through this step in your workflow, data migration and retrieval with another software such as IBM Maximo, Salesforce, etc. can be done with ease.
