Converting Oracle CRM On Demand Leads

You can use the Oracle CRM On Demand REST API to create Account, Contact, and Opportunity resources, or copy lead information to existing resources by converting the Lead resource to an Opportunity resource.

The following details are for a request to convert a Lead resource to an Opportunity resource and create new Account and Contact records for the Lead resource on the Oracle CRM On Demand Server:

• URL: https://<host>/OnDemand/user/Rest/latest/Leads/1QA2-22WT7L
• HTTP Method: POST
• Content-Type: application/vnd.oracle.adf.resource+json
• Request body:

     {"NextStep": "ddddd"},

   ]
 }
}
