Using Scripting Languages

In the Orchestrator Studio, programmers can use the Apache Groovy, JRuby, and Jython scripting languages to extend the functionality of orchestrations. In the Orchestrator Studio, you can use these scripting languages to:

  • Create a custom service request that uses complex logic to perform transactions that cannot be configured in a standard service request.

  • Create a custom rule with complex conditions that cannot be configured in a standard rule.

  • Manipulate output from a REST connector response. For example, if an orchestration with a REST connector service request returns information in XML format, you can convert it to JSON for output mapping.

  • Manipulate the output from an orchestration response.

  • Read and write data in a database using a database connector.
