How to collect response from 3rd party application to solarwinds using SDK to perform any action. Response will be in HTML format.

I think the way that we have done this recently is by utilising the PowerShell script monitoring in SAM to perform a web-request and then return the required information based on that. Have a look here for examples:

Here's a recent one I created to monitor the status of remote meeting services, with the output shown in the attachment:

try 
{
    $response = Invoke-RestMethod 'https://statusgator.com/dashboards/QfgkhF9fYkgPBDe4uhxVczvo.json'
} 

catch 
    {
    Write-host "Message: Unable to connect to StatusGator URL"
    exit 1;
}
$j = 0
$status = ForEach ($i in $response)
{
$name = $i.name
$status = $i.status
    if ($i.status -eq "up")
    {
        Write-Host "Message.$name`: $name status is $status"
        Write-Host "Statistic.$name`:  1"
    } 
    else 
    {
        Write-Host "Message.$name`: $name status is $status"
        Write-Host "Statistic.$name`:  0"
    }
$j++
}
exit 0;
