Web Collector
Scenario
Data is not always stored in a database or on file. Sometimes, it is only available via a call to a webservice, or a query to some web or application server. PhixFlow needs to be able to get at this data.
Choose a simple online datasource, and set PhixFlow up to retrieve data from that source.
Solution:
- Setup and configure an HTTP datasource
- Setup and configure an HTTP collector - Note : setting the correct response type and configuring the connector on the HTTP collector is the mechanism for getting the data into separate fields in the Stream.
- Read data into a stream from the HTTP datasource
