How to fetch the ID of the record using the name of the record?

I have 2 objects (Account and case), where Case record will be created from an external source which passes account number as a input, Based on the account number I need to capture Account ID and assocciate the record. Can you please suggest how to go forward for this requirement?

This can be achieved with a record triggered flow. 

Critria wants to be something like:

Case is created only
Account Number field on Case is not Blank

Then do a look up on the account where Case.Account Number = Account Number on the account than update the case with the Account Id

Hi Raghubm,

You need to go with REST API integration with @HttpPut.

Follow Sample code 
@RestResource(urlMapping='/Account/*')
global with sharing class AccountManager {

 @httpPut
    global static Account doPutMethod(String Name, Integer AnnualRevenue){
    Map<String,String> paramsMap = RestContext.request.params;
    String accid=paramsMap.get('id');
     Account acc= new Account(Name =name, AnnualRevenue = annualrevenue, Id =accid);
    update acc;
    return acc;
    }
  
  
}



if you need any assistanse, Please let me know!!

Kindly mark my solution as the best answer if it helps you.

Thanks
