What is the use of Assignment service shape
Is the assignment service just a combination of integrator shape and assignment or there is more to it?
Hi,
Use the Assignment Service shape in a flow to pass control to an external system using a connector (for example, Connect BPEL rule). Assignment Service shapes support asynchronous coordination with external systems.
Both Integrator shapes and Assignment Service shapes reference an activity of type Connect. For an Integrator shape, flow execution continues as soon as the activity completes. For an Assignment Service shape, flow execution pauses until PRPC receives a incoming service request of the appropriate type.
