Workbench is a Java based (Eclipse) development tool. You cannot integrate this with adaptive forms. The SOAP communication is between the server and the client to upload,version and deploy assets and processes. I have never seen someone to attempt that. The SOAP communication is not documented.

Our adaptive forms consume REST endpoints to interact with the Workbench processes. It works, but I think we can do better.

What is the use case?

[FrustratedFootballer]

We have an Adaptive Forms application that consumes REST endpoints exposed by workbench processes to perform CRUD operations on a SQL Server database via Workbench processes. This endpoint consumption is triggered by javascript code in the out-of-the-box adaptive form action listeners that make the call via XMLHttpRequest, so user interaction is required. What we would like is a more seamless interaction.

In your JavaScript code are you able to access the response? If yes you can set the value of the field in your adaptive form using the guide bridge api

or have you considered using form data model to connect to your database and interact with the database using adaptive form based on the form data model
