Hi Wayne,

You should have a look at the callout mediator [1] and also this [2] case
study, which covers some ground and do something similar. Also you can use
the SynapseEnvironment.createMessageContext() to get a new message context
created. You can use java inside groovy and hence this call will be possible
inside groovy as well.

Hope this will help.

Thanks,
Ruwan
