API to add items to work queue?

sarcher — Thu, 19 Oct 2017 17:46:00 GMT

Hi there, Is there a way to add work items to a queue programmatically? Basically, we are trying to find an effective front-end solution where a user can fill out a web form which then, on submission, a work item is created and added to a specified work queue to be worked on a scheduled process? Is this possible to develop out, without having to have a blue prism process run to and call the API and add the item that way? Thanks

The method of doing that

The method of doing that would be to expose an object as a SOAP Web Service. That Web Service will be an extreamly simple, simply taking a request and adding it to a Blue Prism Work Queue, returning an output parameter to confirm that the request was successfully added. Your front end solution would simply call the Blue Prism web service to add requests to the Work Queue. For more details there is a guide or fact sheet on Web Services in the product area of the portal.

Great, thanks Denis, will
