How it Works
- Make sure your required workflow is set before starting with the execution process in order to get the expected result.
- To initiate the execution process, go to the How to use? tab within the Application. You'll see the steps laid out for you to follow using the cURL commands, or can simply test the flow using the test mode.
1 Launch Postman or your preferred API tool and execute the flow by configuring the suitable Method, URL, and Body settings.
2 Upon initiating the API call, a verification request will be sent to your configured Verification Way settings.
3 Based on the request, execute the flow in an incognito browser and follow the prompts to complete the verification process.
4 After completing the verification process, check the response in your Kafka account and view it within your configured Kafka Topic.
