Endpoint Policies - Transform and Base64 encode payload

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi

I'm setting up an endpoint to receive payloads from a webhook, since I have no control on how this is sent, I have set up an ApiGateway to receive the payload and the target endpoint would be the IMS v2/message.

All good, accept in a transformation endpoint policy I need to base64 encode the payload to send it to IMS.

Is this possible?

Thanks

@Richard France ,

Look at the script below

I think can help you?

Hi Fabiano

Thank you for your reply, however, this assumes the document is in ION. My issue was to subscribe to a webhook from a store outside the Infor eco system and then pass it to the ION middleware.

From what I can tell, the only way to pass a document into ION is via the ION messaging system, which requires the document to be base64 encoded. I was hoping to achieve this without adding another layer, by using the API gateway transformation endpoint policy. It would be great if we could add a script to do the transformation, in the endpoint policy, and your solution would be the way to go.

It looks like I'll need a small application outside of Infor (which I was trying to avoid) to send the webhook payload to, then transform it and then send to the IMS messaging service.

EDIT:

Actually, I'm re-reading this, are you saying send the payload to IDM and then convert it and send to IMS?

The IDM script is just a example, but this is a idea

you send to IMS, transform to base64 and send to your endpoint, (you can do this in data flow)
