Starting Activities Via Rest API

Since ProcMan 5.0.4 there is a possibility to start Universal Object activities via REST API. For more information about ProcMan’s REST API start in your Browser https://<procman_dns>:<procman_port>/hwm_rest_api.php (replace <procman_dns> and <procman_port> so they match your ProcMan installation) and see the description of the partial REST API instructions.

Activities can be started using the submit_activity REST API instruction. The Universal Object submissions expect a specific structure of the data passed in the member activity_input_data of the parameter data in the REST API submit_activity request. The structure of a response on such a request contains a member activity_output_data, which is also Universal Object Module specific.
