The Send request Cron Job is used to query an external interface by sending a request to query.
There are 2 types of interface communications:
1.Push: The external system (e.g. SAP) sends data to the GIS.
2.Pull: the GIS queries data from an external system interface.
When an external system publishes the interface and we can query data from it, the VertiGIS Integrator plays an active part by querying the interface on the external system side. Using the Send request Cron Job, the VertiGIS Integrator sends an HTTP request to get back a response from the external system with the data, and processes it.
This Cron Job supports the following additional parameters:
