Invoke REST API - AEM 6.3 Forms

Hi Guru's ,

I'm currently exploring AEM 6.3 forms and trying out a usecase to invoke a rest endpoint on click of a button .

I achieved this use case in AEM 6.2 via code editor where on click event I was excuting a peice of java script code which would make a ajax style call to rest API and render the response .

I'm trying to see if there is any better way to acheive this in AEM 6.3 .

I do not have the swagger file for the REST API and it is a third party service . Will i still be able to use Forms data integrations ? Or Is there any GuideUtils API to invoke rest based endpoints or java script way is the best to go  ? I found the article below  to execute SOAP based services , however couldn't find any thing similar for rest based calls ?

    Here is a general AEM article on how to invoke a 3rd party Restful web service: Scott's Digital Community: Creating Adobe Experience Manager services that invoke third party Restful web services

    You can write an AEM OSGi service that contains Java logic that sends a request and handles the response.

    Thanks Scott.

    I'm aware of osgi way of invoking services or javascript but i'm after the way to effectively leverage AEM forms.

    Being a consumer of third party rest api , dont have swagger file to create a Form data model.

    Wondering if there is any other mechanism in AEM forms apart from using plain javascript in code editor of rules section ?

    cheers
