Message Templates Tab

The Message Templates tab is located on the right side of the Edit Filter / Transformer View and enables you to edit the inbound and outbound message templates for your filter or transformer. Both templates can be used in the filter / transformer for easy reference and drag-and-drop capabilities, but only the outbound template has any effect on message processing. If an outbound template is specified, you will see the Message Templates title appear bold in the tab list. Note: The Outbound template is only visible for transformers and response transformers. When you edit a connector's filter, you only see the Inbound template. Edit Data Types You can edit the properties for the destination transformer's inbound data type.

Create New Rules/Steps

As outlined in the Message Trees Tab section, new rules / steps can be generated easily from the inbound/outbound message trees. They can also be created manually. Select the Add New Rule/Step task to the left: A new rule/step is created and added to the table. To change the type of rule/step, double-click the cell in the Type column. To change the name, double-click the cell in the Name column. Some rule/step types have names auto-generated from the properties and so do not allow editing in the table. If you are creating a filter rule, you can change the operator of the rule by selecting the AND or OR button next to the name. Parent topic: Edit Filter / Transformer Views

Rule/Step Table

The table in the top half of the Edit Filter / Transformer Views shows all the rules/steps you currently have configured. If you have Iterators, the elements are organized into a tree-table with the children underneath each Iterator. Column Description Enabled Determines whether the rule/step is currently enabled. When disabled, rules/steps are not executed at all, and act as if they were never there in the first place. For filters, this could change behavior as it follows the AND/OR order of operations. When all rules in a filter are disabled, the filter acts as if no rules exist, and is not executed at all. # This is the sequence number of the rule / step, starting at 0 for the first one. For child elements underneath an Iterator, this will be multiple numbers separated by a dash, to indicate the child index of each depth level. Name This is the name of the rule / step. If the type of rule / step allows user editing, you can double-click the cell to edit the name. For filter rules, y

Transformer Tasks

The following context-specific tasks are available throughout the Edit Transformer View: Task Icon Task Name Description Add New Step Adds a new transformer step to the table. If an Iterator step or any step that is a child of an Iterator is currently selected, the new step is placed at the end of the children of the most immediate parent Iterator. Otherwise, the new step will be placed at the very end of the list at the bottom of the table. Delete Step Removes the currently selected step from the table. If an Iterator step is deleted, all of its children are also deleted. Assign To Iterator Adds the selected step to a new or existing Iterator. For additional information, see Working With Iterators. Remove From Iterator Removes the selected step from its current Iterator. For additional information: Working With Iterators Import Transformer Imports a transformer from an XML file. You can choose to completely replace the current transformer, or simply append the steps to the current tab
