Service Bus 12c Cool feature
• Today’s SOA world is no longer all about SOAP and XML. More and more
mobile solutions and other integration platforms and tools prefer REST
Services and JSON.
• The Service Bus has always been able to provide REST services as well
as SOAP, and could even do JSON if you put your mind to it.
• Internally, in the Proxy Message Flows, it was all about SOAP and XML
• In SB 12.1.3, the Service Bus supports JSON as well as XML REST
services, variables etc.
• In SB 12.2, Javascript actions and “end-to-end REST” will allow for
“native” JSON processing in Message Flows.

By using offset you can continue fetching more records
