Abstract
For systems integration, an information published about an application programming interface (API) of a service is parsed to extract a pattern from the information. the pattern is compared with a stored pattern in a repository, wherein the stored pattern corresponds to a known API. When the pattern matches the stored pattern within a threshold degree of match, a conclusion is made that the API of the service is the known API. A collector code module is selected where the collector code module is configured to call the known API. The collector code module is sequenced in an integration sequence, to call the known API. A forwarder code module is also sequence din the integration sequence to forward a data output of the service to a consumer application.
