Command Service

 

The Bluespring Command Service is a stand-alone Service which exposes Commands to a computer as a Web Service, allowing you to use the Invoice Web Service Activity to initiate Commands.  Effectively, the Command Service allows you to emulate a Command Prompt in a BPM5 Process, so you can execute Batch Files or automate actions you might normally use a Command Prompt to perform.

 

In order to automate Commands, you must first install the Command Service.  Instructions for installing the Command Service can be found in the Installation Guide.  The Topics listed below describe the various Web Service Methods and Parameters for the Command Service, as well as a description for using BPM5's Invoke Web Service Activity to call the Command Service within a Process.
