SharePoint 2013 Workflow: Call an External Web Service
Still published and available on the original platform.
Overview
The sample workflow is bound to a list named Customers. After the user enters a value for CustomerID, they can manually run the workflow. The workflow uses the CustomerID to search for the customer using the public Northwind sample OData service (http://services.odata.org/Northwind/Northwind.svc/).
When it finds the customer, it adds the details it retrieves from the service to the list item and then concludes.
