All you need to do is to configure Workflow to point to the WFS feed from Astun Data Services (ADS).

  • With the Workflow Connections node selected in Studio right click and select New Connection from the context menu.

You will see the following dialog:

  • Select the WFS Connection Type and click OK.

Note

If WFS does not appear as an option then you will need to edit the ConTypes.xml file. See the topic Add the WFS Connection Type for details.


Name

Enter a name for your WFS Workflow connection e.g. NHS Choices Downloader (ADS).

Server

Here you need to paste in the URL to the WFS feed for the NHS Choices Downloader which is:

http://syn.ads.astuntechnology.com/nhs/choices/wfs

This WFS feed will shortly be deprecated and will be removed in the future. Please start using the updated feed at http://syn.ads.astuntechnology.com/nhs/v2/choices/wfs
