Can Azure Data factory publish data to Rest API

We need the ADF to publish the data to a 3rd Party application exposing its REST API, can it be done via ADF or need we have a custom .Net code to do the data posting.

From the documentation it seems it can only retrieve the data https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/connector-rest

You can publish data to a REST API from within ADF by using a web activity (recommended) or using a custom activity (using .NET code).

If you want to publish the output of an activity, you can chain the web activity to the activity you want to send the result of. You can then in your web activity reference the output of the previous activity using a dynamic expression similar to this :

@string(activity('CopyFromBlobToBlob').output)

Hope this helps.

This table shows which connectors are supported as source and sink. None of the web-based connectors is currently supported as sink. So no, you cannot do this with the built-in copy activity.
