Json Tool

The JSON Tool enables one to issue a JSON webservice call and to save the returned data into Joget's form data or/and into the process's workflow variable.

Figure 3: JSON Tool Properties - Store to Workflow Variable

In figure 2 and 3, one will need to specify on how to treat the returned data. The returned data may be saved as form data or/add to be saved into process's workflow variable. The example used in this article shows on how one can store multi-row data into a form data table.

Sample JSON API: http://localhost:8080/jw/web/json/workflow/package/list

        },
        {
            "packageName": "Dashboard",
            "packageId": "dashboard"
