In WSO2 Integration Studio, add a Property mediator just after the Get Hospital Property mediator in the In sequence of the API resource. This is used for retrieving and storing the card number that is sent in the request payload.
With the Property mediator selected, access the Properties tab and fill in the information as in the following table:
Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name card_number
Property Action Select set
Value Type Select Expression Value Expression json-eval($.cardNo)
Description Get Card Number Tip For detailed instructions on adding a Property mediator, see Mediating requests to the back-end service.
- Go to the first case box of the Switch mediator. Add a Property mediator just after the Log mediator to store the
uri.var.hospital
variable value that will be used when sending requests to ChannelingFeeEP.
With the Property mediator selected, access the Properties tab and fill in the information as in the following table:
Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name uri .var.hospital
Property Action Select set
Value Type Select LITERAL Property Data Type Select STRING Value grandoaks
Description Set Hospital Variable - Similarly, add Property mediators in the other two case boxes in the Switch mediator. Change only the Value field as follows:
- Case 2:
clemency
- Case 3:
pinevalley
- Case 2:
Delete the Send mediator by right-clicking the mediator and selecting Delete from Model. Replace this with a Call mediator from the Mediators palette and add GrandOakEP from the Defined Endpoints palette to the empty box adjoining the Call mediator.
Replace the Send mediators in the following two case boxes as well and add ClemencyEP and PineValleyEP to the respective boxes adjoining the Call mediators.Info Replacing with a Call mediator allows us to define other service invocations following this mediator.
Let's use Property mediators to retrieve and store the values that you get from the response you receive from GrandOakEP, ClemencyEP, or PineValleyEP.
Next to the Switch mediator, add a Property mediator to retrieve and store the value sent as
appointmentNumber
.With the Property mediator selected, access the Properties tab and fill in the information as in the following table:
Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name uri.var.appointment_id
(This value is used when invoking ChannelingFeeEP)Property Action Select set
Value Type Select EXPRESSION Value Expression json-eval($.appointmentNumber)
Description Get Appointment Number Note You derive the Value Expression in the above table from the following response that is received from GrandOakEP, ClemencyEP, or PineValleyEP:
Code Block {"appointmentNumber":1, "doctor": {"name":"thomas collins", "hospital":"grand oak community hospital", "category":"surgery","availability":"9.00 a.m - 11.00 a.m", "fee":7000.0}, "patient": {"name":"John Doe", "dob":"1990-03-19", "ssn":"234-23-525", "address":"California", "phone":"8770586755", "email":"johndoe@gmail.com"}, "fee":7000.0, "confirmed":false}
Similarly, add two more Property mediators as follows. They retrieve and store the
doctor
details andpatient
details respectively from the response that is received from GrandOakEP, ClemencyEP, or PineValleyEP.Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name doctor_details
Property Action Select set
Value Type Select EXPRESSION Value Expression json-eval($.doctor)
Description Get Doctor Details Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name patient_details
Property Action Select set Value Type Select EXPRESSION Value Expression json-eval($.patient)
Description Get Patient Details - Add a Call mediator and add ChannelingFeeEP from Defined Endpoints palette to the empty box adjoining the Call mediator.
Add a Property mediator adjoining the Call mediator box to retrieve and store the value sent as
actualFee
. Access the Property tab of the mediator and fill in the information as in the following table:Field Value Property Name Select New Property New Property Name actual_fee
(This value is used when invoking SettlePaymentEP )Property Action Select set
Value Type Select EXPRESSION Value Expression json-eval($.actualFee)
Description Get Actual Fee Note You derive the Value Expression in the above table from the following response that is received from ChannelingFeeEP:
Code Block {"patientName":" John Doe ", "doctorName":"thomas collins", "actualFee":"7000.0"}
Let's use the /wiki/spaces/EI6xx/pages/49612834 to construct the following message payload for the request sent to SettlePaymentEP.
Code Block {"appointmentNumber":2, "doctor":{ "name":"thomas collins", "hospital":"grand oak community hospital", "category":"surgery", "availability":"9.00 a.m - 11.00 a.m", "Fee":7000.0 }, "patient":{ "name":"John Doe", "Dob":"1990-03-19", "ssn":"234-23-525", "address":"California", "phone":"8770586755", "email":"johndoe@gmail.com" }, "fee":7000.0, "Confirmed":false, "card_number":"1234567890" }
Add a PayloadFactory mediator next to the Property mediator, from the mediators palette to construct the above message payload.
With the Payloadfactory mediator selected, access the properties tab of the mediator and fill in the information as in the following table:
Field Value Description Payload Format Select Inline - Media Type Select json
- Payload Code Block { "appointmentNumber":$1, "doctor":$2, "patient":$3, "fee":$4, "confirmed":"false", "card_number":"$5" }
The message payload to send with the request to SettlePaymentEP. In this payload, $1
,$2
,$3
,$4
, and$5
indicate variables.We will look at adding the value for the field the Args field in the following steps.
Tip To avoid getting an error message, first select the Media Type before providing the Payload.
To add the Args field for the PayloadFactory mediator, click the Add (+) icon in the Args field and enter the following information as in the table below. It provides the argument that defines the actual value of the first variable used in the format definition in the previous step.
Field Value Description Type Select Expression - Value $ctx:uri.var.appointment_id
The value for the first variable ($1) in the message payload format. Evaluator Select xml
Indicates that the expression provided is in XML. Info The
$ctx
method is similar to using theget-property
method. This method checks in the message context. For more details on using this method, refer the documentation.Similarly, click Add and add more arguments to define the other variables that are used in the message payload format definition. Use the following as the Value for each of them:
$ctx:doctor_details
$ctx:patient_details
$ctx:actual_fee
$ctx:card_number
- Add a Call mediator and add SettlePaymentEP from the Defined Endpoints palette to the empty box adjoining the Call mediator.
- Add a /wiki/spaces/EI6xx/pages/49616625 Respond mediator to send the response to the client.
You should now have a completed configuration that looks like this: - Save the updated REST API configuration.

Create a JSON file named
request.json
with the following request payload.Code Block { "name": "John Doe", "dob": "1940-03-19", "ssn": "234-23-525", "address": "California", "phone": "8770586755", "email": "johndoe@gmail.com", "doctor": "thomas collins", "hospital": "grand oak community hospital", "cardNo": "7844481124110331", "appointment_date": "2025-04-02" }
Open a command line terminal and execute the following command from the location where the
request.json
file was saved:Code Block curl -v -X POST --data @request.json http://localhost:8280/healthcare/categories/surgery/reserve --header "Content-Type:application/json"
Info This is derived from the URI-Template defined when creating the API resource.
http://<host>:<port>/categories/{category}/reserve
You will see the response as follows:
Code Block { "appointmentNo":1, "doctorName":"thomas collins", "patient":"John Doe", "actualFee":7000.0, "discount":20, "discounted":5600.0, "paymentID":"480fead2-e592-4791-941a-690ad1363802", "status":"Settled" }
