This recipe uses a REST adapter to fetch or receive data in batches from an external application. The recipe enables you to increment the sequence or counter variable within a data mapper, using the position( ) function, for each batch of data that's processed.

To use the recipe, you must install the recipe and configure the connections within it. Subsequently, you can activate the integration flow of the recipe and send a REST request with the data to the integration’s endpoint URL from an external application. When triggered, the recipe’s integration flow returns a response to the external application and also logs the request payload in Oracle Integration, which you can view in the activity stream.
