I am trying to connect to Woocommerce's API and extract some information and then tie orders to a map service and update a field. I am really new to working with API's and need some basic info on what I need to start. I would like to make a call to the API statement below and return a table, this is similar to the Workbench I have attached. Any help from existing documentation or a start on a work bench would be great. Thanks

API Call Doc: http://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-rest-api-docs/#list-all-orders

https://example.com/wp-json/wc/v1/orders using a GET and where example.com is your website.

The header name in the HTTPCaller will be consumer_key and the value of will be your API key. Don't include the colon (:) in the header name. FME will do that for you. Something like:
