Regular Expressions Table

The table at the top of the Regex Attachment Handler dialog shows the current regular expressions you have configured. The first capture group is used to determine what data to extract, so if you have other groups in the expression, make sure to include "?:" to make then non-capturing. There is an example that shows how to extract data from the OBX.5.5 component in an HL7 v2.x message: (?:OBX\|(?:[^|]*\|){4}(?:[^|^]*\^){4})([^|^\r\n]*)(?:[|^\r\n]|$) Select the New / Delete buttons to add or remove regular expressions from the table. For each regular expression you can also specify a MIME type. This supports Velocity Variable Replacement, so you can use source map variables here. Parent topic: Regex Attachment Handler Properties

Regex Attachment Handler Properties

This attachment handler extracts data from the incoming message using regular expressions. You can specify multiple expressions, each with their own MIME type. There are also options to replace certain values on the extracted attachment data before storing it in the database, and replace values in the attachment data right before reinserting it into the message for outbound dispatching.

Extraction

When an attachment handler extracts data from a message, it leaves behind an attachment replacement token like this: This value tells the destination connector where in your message the attachment should be re-inserted right before dispatching to an outbound system. If multiple attachments were extracted for a message, then there will be multiple replacement tokens in the raw data. Parent topic: Attachment Handlers

Message Builder Transformer Step

This step extracts data from a field in the message (or an expression) and maps it into a specific field in the inbound or outbound message. This can be used to simply modify a field in the inbound message, copy a field from one place to another, or map data from the inbound message to the outbound message. Item Name Description Message Segment The field/location in the inbound or outbound message to place the value into. Mapping The value to place into the given message segment. This may be a field from the message, or any JavaScript expression. Default Value If the Mapping is not found or evaluates to an empty string, this value / expression is used instead. String Replacement This table allows you to perform replacements on the value before it gets inserted. Regular Expression: A Java-style regular expression to test against the value. This will implicitly set the global regex flag. Replace With: The value to replace any matched regions with. Parent topic: Transformer Step Propertie

Reattachment

Right before a destination connector dispatches a message to the external system, it scans the outbound message for attachment replacement tokens and automatically re-inserts the actual attachment data. You can prevent a destination from reattaching data by disabling the Reattach Attachments option in the Destination Settings. Parent topic: Attachment Handlers

Change Data Type Properties

After selecting a connector / response row in the table above, the Inbound Properties and Outbound Properties sections below will show all currently configured properties for the respective data types. Select on the rows in the properties table to view descriptions of categories or specific properties: Depending on the connector row chosen above, the data type itself, and whether the data type is being used as inbound or outbound, the categories of properties shown in the table vary. For additional information on data type properties and options for specific data types, see Data Types. Any properties you have changed or that are not equal to the default value are shown in bold. To revert all changes back to the defaults for the selected data type, select the Restore Defaults button above the Properties tables: Parent topic: Set Data Types Window
