how do we integrate an app/oracle/SAP with Salesforce?
Hi Everyone.
Hope you all are doing good.
I am new to Salesforce Development. I have gathered basics of integration from trailheads, blogs, google, etc.
However, I am unsure how an actual integration(REST) of an external app/oracle/SAP etc is done with Salesforce.
I know the following:
1) how to create REST class in Salesforce
2) Making connected app in Salesforce
Now what happens after that?
How we use credential information on external app?
How external system talks with salesforce(I mean external system also makes REST calls to Salesforce?) for e.g. to execute GET method to fetch a record details whose value is fed in external app by a user, what needs to be done?
It would be really helpful if anyone could explain step-by-step process.

1) how to create REST class in Salesforce
You can define an apex class and expose it as rest api
or use salesforce standard rest resource .. please refer this links

https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/modules/api_basics/units/api_basics_rest

2) Making connected app in Salesforce
You can use Oauth or user name and password based auth
Thank You for your response. However, I know how to write REST class and how to make connected apps.
My questions are the following:
1) How we use credential information on external app?
2) How external system talks with salesforce(I mean external system also makes REST calls to Salesforce?) for e.g. to execute GET method to fetch a record details whose value is fed in external app by a user, what needs to be done?
