Nelson Chisoko 15 [Beginner] - Calling out an external web service API using REST services and OAUTH
Hello Guys
I have been struggling to find a way on how I can call an external web service via apex which uses OAUTH via REST services. Basically I am trying to access an API on https://api.envisionme.co.za/v1/docs#oauth. Now they use OAUTH to grant access to make calls such as retrieving jobs, candidates etc. They have set up an app on their side with a client_id and a client_secret. Now based on their doc Im suppose to follow a process: make a login call, get a token etc...
I have absolutely no idea how to do this...how do I set up an apex class that will
1. Login and get the token
2. Enable me to make those Http POST, GET etc methods
Because ultimately I wanna have a trigger that will call on it to retrieve the data from that external web service.
I do know a bit of apex but I am a rookie when it comes to integration stuff. Please help if you can.
