Which Hopex artefact best to use to represent external party with API

[Hvloenhout]

How can I best model an external party with which data is exchanged using an API between an internal application and the external application of the external organisation (external org unit)?

Also the external organisation (actually an external actor) plays a role in the internal process flow.

Thank you in advance,

Hello,

You have 2 solutions :
 - Use an Org-Unit when you dont know or don't want to know the software part of your API provider. You decide here that you are only interested in the contractual and use parts of the API.
 - Use an application, which implies potential consequences on data and update management for an external application (name, version etc.).
