Standard application for making REST API calls to external applications like SAP

Currently making API Calls to Maximo is very simple. You set up an object structure and you can immediately make API calls to Max

However the opposite is not so simple. If you want to make an API call to an outside application like SAP, there is no standard way of handling this. Ideally we would like to have an application in Maximo that would allow you to set up API calls in a standardized way (similar to how Postman looks).

The calls should also be allowed to set in a certain order like in workflow, so that you can first authenticate and then use the authentication in the next API call.

    Thank you for your submission. At this time there are no plans in the next 18-24 months to develop this type of capability within Manage, but it would be worth investigating the AppConnect capabilities that could provide a similar capability.
