External Request Scenarios and External Data Roles
Refer to Use External Data Roles in Request Processing for more information.
External Data roles can be used with external request scenarios.
If the External Data role is the first role in the template, the External Data role will receive an email with a blank Excel file attached when the request for the external request scenario is created. At this point, the External Data role enters data in the Excel file and sends it to the external data email account configured for dspCompose™. Refer to Complete the Spreadsheet as an External Data Role for more information.
External Data roles can also be used with external request scenarios that create Excel-initiated requests with one exception: An External Data role cannot be the first role in the scenario’s associated template.
