REST (Content Encoded) Sender

The REST (Content Encoded) Sender is used to call a REST based web service endpoint with encoded content.

Content Type

This field is used to specify the content type associated with the encoded content sent with the REST web service call. The most common content types are listed in the drop-down list, but other content types can be manually specified.

Text, XML or JSON

This field contains the content that is sent with the REST web service call. Data can be added to the content using Node Tags (see Node Paths and Node Tags for more information). For example, a JSON body submitting patient demographics could be:

{
  "mrn": "{PID-3}",
  "lastName": "{PID-5.1}",
  "firstName": "{PID-5.2}",
  "dob": "{PID-7}"
}

Timeout

The timeout specifies how long QIE waits to get a response from the REST web service before issuing a timeout error and aborting the web service call.
