Hi @Anil Sagar

Thanks for the example, just wanted to know how in case we are using java-callout to return response from java class , how does java jar knows which url to respond to. As i was trying out the example for yahoo weather Api given in java-cookBook there is no url specified for which the java-cookbook after deployment knows to respond to, can you please tell.

Dear @Anand Jayant Kadhi ,

Regarding, "how does java jar knows which url to respond to" ?

You will attach java callout to one of the proxy request / response flows. So, Java callout will execute only when conditions are met in that particular proxy. Java callout is also a policy in Apigee Edge which you attach to proxy request / response pipelines.

Regarding, "As i was trying out the example for yahoo weather Api given in java-cookBook there is no url specified for which the java-cookbook after deployment knows to respond to"

It does actually, It's attached to proxy endpoint "/forecastrss" in the request pipeline. Check xml here. Policies are attached using Step tags.

<Flow name="forecast"> <Description>weather forecast</Description> <Condition>(proxy.pathsuffix MatchesPath "/forecastrss") and (request.verb = "GET")</Condition> <!-- for every request lookupCityName policy --> <Request> <!-- Java extension--> <Step> <Name>cityLookUp</Name> </Step> </Request> <Response/> </Flow>
