Request Approval using OIM API

Question

Hi all
Which API I need to use to approve a resouce request using OIM API?
I have tried with the following:
tcReqOp.setRequestResponse(85, 1 , "java.lang.String psResponse");
i do not know what to pass in place of java.lang.String psResponse.
I aslo tried passing "C","Completed"
can anyone correct what I am doing?
Thank u

I assume you want to run a scheduled task for this. Try this approach. Run this query to retrieve specific approval tasks that are in a pending state:
select oti.sch_key, mil.mil_name, to_char(oti.oti_update, 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
from oti, mil, obj, pkg, orc, sch
where oti.mil_key=mil.mil_key
and oti.pkg_key=pkg.pkg_key
and pkg.obj_key=obj.obj_key
and oti.orc_key=orc.orc_key
and oti.sch_key=sch.sch_key
and oti.sch_status='P'
and obj.obj_name='Test Object'
and pkg.pkg_type='Approval'
You can modify the obj.obj_name or remove, or do any changes you want. When you grab the time of the oti.oti_update, compare it against the sysdate to determine the time difference. If the update did not occur within that time, use this code:
provIntf = (tcProvisioningOperationsIntf)getUtilityOps("Thor.API.Operations.tcProvisioningOperationsIntf");
Hashtable taskHash = new Hashtable();
taskHash.put("Process Instance.Task Details.Data", "<Insert Response Value Here>");
provIntf.updateTask(key, taskHash) ; //---> Key is the same as the oti.sch_key field
I have not tried this, but give it a shot.
