Custom Form API Call Examples

You can request a vRealize Automation 8.x catalog item with custom forms that use API calls. All examples in this scenario use the Postman API platform.

Obtain a bearer token and refresh token

Retrieve a project ID

Retrieve a list of catalog items by using a project ID

Look up a catalog item that uses a custom form

Run a script action in a custom form to retrieve data

Submit a cloud template request

The forms service API in vRealize Automation 8.1 does not support form execution. You cannot request a catalog item that uses a custom form to capture user inputs. As a workaround, you can use two API calls:

• Form service API to retrieve input data.
• Cloud template API to submit the request.
  Note: Cloud templates were previously known as blueprints.
