Invoker Step
The Invoker step allows you to choose an Invoker for a process. Invoker components provide the ability to use a service provided by an external system or application. The service is invoked by passing a source message object to the Execute action. The component uses the data provided in the message object to pass the information necessary to use the service to the system or application. An Invoker places any output from the service into the target message object. Typical applications for an invoker component include using a web or SOAP service.
