Working with Web Service Jobs

Defining a Web Service Action

Defining a Web Service Action

The Web Service adapter allows you to trigger events as an CWA Action type. This action can then be associated with 
any CWA event, including job events such as "Job Completed Normally" or file, email, variable events, etc (refer to CWA 
documentation on how to associate actions with scheduling events). When the action triggers a custom event in Web 
Services, any pending scheduled task waiting on the event will kick off.
