About Sending and Receiving Messages Through HTTP

To send and receive messages through HTTP, you need to set up a workflow with the SendReceive method.

The Receive part of that method receives the response in an output argument of that method. You can then use the response to perform an upsert using an integration object and EAI Siebel Adapter, or display the response to your user. In this scenario, none of your quote integration design uses the eai.cfg or the SWE. You are performing an outbound HTTP call and waiting for a response synchronously.

You can then communicate the response to the user by displaying the returned error message in a browser alert or use the new User Interact step of the workflow to refresh the view and show any new updates to fields to the user. The User Interact step can run synchronously or asynchronously, in the local Object Manager or on the server.
