I am in a company that recently implemented office 365 so that we can use sharepoint 2013 in the cloud. I am trying to determine how to setup a web service that will be setup to work with SharePoint 2013 in the cloud.
The issue is the databases that the web service will call are on premises. However workflows are in the cloud on sharepoint 2013. I am assuming that there will be firewall and/or security issues that will need to be dealt with.
I am thinking of creating the web service by using the following link as a good reference point:
link is called: 'Working with Web Services in SharePoint 2013 Workflows using SharePoint Designer 2013'
link is:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn567558(v=office.15)
Thus I wondering if you can tell me or point me to a url that will show me how to make the following work:
a. Have sharepoint 2013 in cloud workflow call a web service,
b. Have the web service obtain the data from in houses database ?
