Configuring the REST Reply

When creating an app from a REST Swagger API specification, the ReceiveHTTPMessage reply data type is set to any by default. To explicitly configure the reply type add a ConfigureHTTPResponse activity in the flow. This activity must immediately precede the Return activity in the flow.

1. In the Reply Settings tab of the ReceiveHTTPMessage REST trigger, configure the custom codes that you want to use. Refer to the section, "REST Trigger" in the Activities and Triggers Guide.
2. Add a ConfigureHTTPResponse activity immediately preceding the Return activity in the flow.
3. Configure the ConfigureHTTPResponse activity as follows:
   1. In the Settings tab:
      1. If your flow is attached to multiple REST triggers, select the trigger in which you have configured the code you want to use from the Trigger Name drop-down menu. The Trigger Name field does not display if your flow is attached to only one REST trigger.
      2. Select a response code from the Code field menu. Only the codes configured in the selected trigger are displayed in the menu.
   2. The Input tab displays the schema for the response code. Map the elements or manually enter a value for the elements.
4. Configure the Return activity by mapping the code and responseBody (which is currently of data type any).

   

5. In the Map from Flow Outputs tab in the ReceiveHTTPMessage trigger, map the code and responseBody to the corresponding elements from the flow output.
