Hi @sridhar_akella,

please check out this repository for examples

I assume you will have to provide valid certificates to establish HTTPS connection. Or add it to your jvm truststore.

Can you provide an example of end to end on it

@sridhar_akella,

could you explain a bit more what kind of example would you like to see? In https://github.com/camunda/camunda-bpm-examples/tree/master/servicetask/rest-service there is a full client implementation including unit test and spring configuration. You can run it using IDE of your choice.

Cheers,
Askar.

Hi,

Do we have an example for HTTPS-Connector for SSL Certificate.

Regards.
Sri

aakhmerov · August 29, 2016, 2:52pm

we do not have such example right now.

but if you will replace in the example above following code
<camunda:inputParameter name="url"> http://feiertage.jarmedia.de/api/?jahr=2014&nur_land=BE </camunda:inputParameter>
to any https link, it will be an example which is using HTTPS.

Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Askar.

Hi Askar,

Other Question, I wanted to use https connector with localhost to hit a system local to server.

In the Https connector , I used https://localhost:9084/services/ but the it is not working…I am forced to use https://servername:9084/services.

How can I use generic http connector for the all the servers to work… So that I need not change the process for every deployment

Please let me

Hi @sridhar_akella,

I do not understand what is not working exactly, could you give me a bit more details? It sounds to me like your localhost loopback is not resolved properly. Could you give me output of ping localhost and ping servername?

Cheers,
Askar

I am using the following for the http connector url which resides in same server

I am using https://servername:portnumber/service it is working…

when I tried to use https://localhost:portnumber/service it is not working.

Please let me if I can use localhost, So that I need not change my connector url frequently

Thanks,
Sri
