I have finally managed to sit down and spend sometime with this artifact. I was asked to produce a Lab at Think 2018 with Natasha (https://www.linkedin.com/in/natasha-kirkup-1896b360/) to shows off the MQ Invoke Policy for API Connect.
The policy can be downloaded from here. Github Link : https://github.com/charlottehutchinson/APIConnect-Policy-MQInvoke
This is based off the work I did with Charlotte (\@C_Hutchinson1) and Jack (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-dunleavy-784baa109/).
Original Article : https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/mw-1611-hutchinson-trs/index.html
The only significant change is that we added support to set some RFH2 headers from the Policy Setting page it self. See the image below.
While making these changes we discovered a major bug. It worked fine for XML but not JSON. I am unsure how this missed our original testing, and quite frankly I found this very embarrassing. The issue we had was JSONX was being returned not JSON. After a lot of work with the help of Andrew White (https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-white-007b7624/) we managed to add some logic to handle this translation. I will write this up in a separate blog post shortly.
