trying to create a rest api flow without using integration service or restapi node. I dont even have a swagger doc. Can someone point me to a sample or notes on how to create a rest api without swagger?
mqinput--->compute-->httprequest
Please point me to any documentation if you can. thanks. |

REST is an HTTP concept.
Not an MQ one.
You can use an HTTPInput with the JSON parser.

Or with an HTTPRequest one as shown in your post.

Same as creating a web service without a WSDL. Both WSDL and Swagger are just descriptions of data layouts in machine readable form. It's perfectly possible to create payloads that look like that long hand.
Swagger is a relatively new format; people were creating REST APIs long before it was developed. Also while Swagger is the most popular (and IBM preferred) documentation, it's not the only one so you could find this problem in future when someone hands you YAML and tells you to call the API.

I need to get different coffee.
I'm happy to pretend I was confused by the lack of anything to process the result of the HTTPRequest.

Or more coffee.

We can go with that.
I'm prepared to assume that, inexplicably, this is a one way API. The OP has posted stranger designs in the past. Though not many.

Hopefully you should have at least a YAML doc.
Go to the website http://editor.swagger.io/#/ and ingest the YAML file.
Look at the menus and output the swagger file.
You can now load the swagger file in IIB.
If you have to start from scratch there is a good wizard in IIB 10.0.0.5.
Or start with building a YAML file...
Hope this helps
