Particular object type resource

The particular object type resource represents a case type in which property values are obtained from an external data source. When a case of the specified case type is created or modified, the workflow REST protocol uses this resource to obtain data for that case from the external data source.

You do not use this resource directly in your case management application. Instead, the workflow REST protocol calls the POST method for resource automatically when a case is being added or modified to communicate with the external data service. The service then returns the required information in the response to this method call.
