I am new to salesforce. I need to know how to design a WSDL for salesforce REST API inorder to connect salesforce service?
I have a doubt, is it possible to do a GET request(sales force has REST access) on sales force resources and create xsd based on the response xml received for each request?
But I cant able to find particular schema available for salesforce.
or
Is there any other way to design a WSDL for REST API?
Thank you for your answer in advance
For the REST API, you don't need to use the WSDL. You can explore the API by going to
https://{instance}.salesforce.com/services/data/v24.0
For an interactive explorer, check out apigee's salesforce console:

You can also use Workbench to make REST calls to Salesforce:

I want to implement an evaluation feature to my chatbot. User would be able to rate service on a scale of 1 to 5 and make suggestions.
I guess I would use slots for that and store the provided data in a variable.
What would be the easiest way for me to save and access that data later?
Somehow I need to write it to a database and make that database easily accessible. Or ideally having Watson sending an email with the feedback to myself.
Is there an IBM Cloud Database service available for that?
What would be my first steps in order to achieve this? Maybe you have some tips or documentation links, or even code snippets if it's not to much work for you.
I used IBM Cloud functions to get a joke from an API to Watson via webhook. I used code from the internet. So I am somewhat familiar with the concept, but I need more guidance and couldn’t find anything helpful. Basically I know nothing about NODE.
I would recommend the tutorial and its code on how to build a database-driven Slackbot with Watson Assistant. It uses a webhook and Cloud Functions to interact with a database for various actions. You could use that as blueprint for setting up the webhook and see how the database is invoked.
Make sure to secure the webhook. This can only be done using the command line (CLI), see the Cloud Functions doc on securing web actions.
I have an API that a user can query for data after that user authenticates against an OAuth2 provider that I maintain (i.e. not Google). Is it possible to expose data through this API to Google's Data Studio using a Community Connector? If yes, is it possible to use the setup outlined here https://github.com/gsuitedevs/apps-script-oauth2#setup against a non-Google OAuth2 provider? Thank you for your help!
I have not found any requisite to expose data through an API. So I expect that it is possible, but take into account the specific configuration requested when implementing it.
The setup outlined there is not official so you will need to test it unless someone has done it already or has enough time for it. The post is really detailed and has work behind, so I would give it a chance!
How to test salesforce bulk API in postman? Do we really need WSDL to work with bulk api?
I believe that you can do this but it would require manually writing the soap envelope for each request (see example). However I would suggest using SoapUI which lets you import wsdl files and create sample request. All you have to do is provide the inputs, the opensource version is free and would meet your needs.
You dont "need" the wsdl but it makes it easier to determine the call you can make and the parameters you need to pass for the calls, because it describes the webservice that you are trying to use, and because it's a standard many applications support it.
You can use WorkBench to test salesforce's API otherwise you can use postman to test the REST API of salesforce as described in the documentation
Am trying to connect and fetch product/Item data from Apttus using mulesoft and send it to netsuite,I am not having much of information but I heard its part of salesforce so can I use salesforce connector to connect?,I have searched google but I didnt find any example to connect apptus to mulesoft.Can anyone help? if its part of sales force what operation should I choose
Yes, Salesforce connector will integrate with Apttus only if you're using standard and supported functions of the force.com platform.
You should therefore be able to create custom objects, and retrieve or filter them through DataSense.
I will work on a new project related to salesforce. Actually what we want to do is to have a salesforce API that contains our database and this API will accept connections from our clients. Once we establish the connection the user will have the access to our database too. Since I dont know anything about salesforce right now, I just wanted to ask you if you have some ideas on how to do that ? Is there any existing API doing that ? or We need to implement our new API for salesforce ?
Salesforce provides several APIs out of the box that can be used to access the data stored in your Organization.
Have a look at the REST API, Enterprise API and the Partner API. See Which API Should I Use?.
If none of those suit your needs you can use Apex to create your own REST or SOAP based services.
