External API Demo

This small example workflow demonstrates how to submit GET requests to an external API using KNIME. A table of target UNIPROT ids is read from a file. The DrugCentral API is then used to fetch details about these targets. As well, similar information can be fetched from the PostgreSQL database.

The GET Request node and the Python Script node both carry out the same functionality. The Python Script is node is provided to demonstrate that Python can be used within KNIME to communicate with external resources.
