Overview
The BP3 REST Toolkit simplifies connections to RESTful services from an IBM BPM Process Application. The REST toolkit includes Integration Services/Connectors to support various types of authentication (None, BasicAuth, BasicAuth with J2C, and WAS LTPA), along with the ability to translate the JSON/XML responses from REST service into IBM BPM business objects, including the option to drop elements that are returned and should not map into a business object.
The BP3 REST Toolkit is shipped with the BP3 REST Toolkit Example Process Application which provides sample usage of the connectors from the toolkit, including a REST Client Tester where you can easily test your REST connections and receive helpful error feedback and formatted XML or JSON responses, prior to implementing them in a process.
Features

- Ability to exclude elements not needed in the IBM BPM business object

How can I download this toolkit?
Hi Anton,
The BP3 REST Toolkit is available for purchase along with the other BP3 accelerator toolkits including our LDAP/Excel/Email toolkits. BP3 Labs customers automatically receive access to these toolkits, and clients working with BP3 Consulting can obtain the toolkits as part of qualified consulting engagements.
I see you are using a gmail address, so I can't tell if you would fall into any of these categories. Feel free to open a support ticket with your work email along with your phone contact information and we'd be happy to contact you to discuss your needs.
