What this operation supports in Odoo
Executes a direct call against any Odoo REST/JSON-RPC API endpoint, for cases where no dedicated pre-built operation covers what's needed.
Implementation details
This requires specifying the endpoint or model, method, and any parameters the target call expects, using the same authentication already configured for the connection.
Operational considerations
Testing the exact request against Odoo's own API documentation before relying on it in production avoids malformed requests failing silently within an automation, especially given how much a self-hosted Odoo instance's exact configuration and installed modules can vary between accounts.
Use cases
Push inventory updates to a logistics provider, or fetch data from an external API into Odoo.
