Hi Dan,
I did a very simple implementation with Jersey Client Api in simple app the way you reccomended and it works fine indeed. Any recommandation of how parse the JSON returned? Are you using libs for that purpose in ISIS already? grtz Johan Um, not sure I agree that a view model is relevant if acting as a consumer of an external REST API. Put another way: it's perfectly fine for entities or regular domain services to act as consumers of external REST APIs, too. What I would do is to create a domain service that actually makes the REST call, so that this can be tested in isolation. That domain service can then provide a suitably simplified API for the other domain objects that need info from that service.
