AMIRIS released a new feature, namely the API support “URL Model Service”. This feature provides an easy way to connect AMIRIS agents from within the simulation to external web services via POST requests. To this end, UrlModelService translates Java objects to JSON, sends the web requests to the external service, translates the JSON response and returns a Java object.
An detailled example on how this can be utilised with a simple Python-based web service is also included in the documentation.
