Anyone succeed in pulling binary data through an IB REST Service

As far as I know, it isn't possible with standard PeopleSoft PeopleTools Integration Broker to create a REST Web Service and retrieve binary data through the wall. For instance, the external provider REST Web Service might send pdf files as pure binary data in the response "message" (The response is not really a message, if you get what I mean). IB cuts it off in the Target Connector, I think, and it never flows through into the IB API objects.

What I'm wondering is whether anybody has succeeding in circumventing this limitation. If so, how did you do it? One way I can think of is to write our own HTTP Target Connector, but that's obviously an uncertain and sizeable development pathway, and so far, I haven't got any business buy-in to allocate resources for such an effort.

Howdy, Stranger!
