Working with a Preconfigured Data Provider Service
 
Configuring a Server Connection for a Preconfigured Data Provider Service
When creating a decision table with the Rules Development feature of Software AG Designer, the rules developer can restrict the input options for a condition column or a result column by assigning a preconfigured REST service that provides a predefined list of values. For instance, the service can provide a list of valid zip codes for a zipCode condition or result column.
For more information about the required structure of this REST service, see webMethods Business Rules Reference. For more information about how to assign the REST service to a condition column or a result column of a decision table, see webMethods BPM Rules Development Help.
When you modify the corresponding decision table cells in the Rules Management Console, you are only allowed to select an item from a drop-down list that offers the predefined values and their descriptions. Before you can use the data provider service, you must configure the connection to the server the REST service is running on.
