Message Content

Message content is the actual data that gets processed. As a message flows through your channel, different versions of the data are stored for each connector, depending on the modifications your channel needs to make. Source Connector Raw - The state of the message as it enters the connector. Processed Raw - The state of the message after passing through the preprocessor script. Transformed - The serialized internal representation of the message, which exists only if a connector has a filter or transformer configured. Encoded - The state of the message as it exits the transformer (includes changes made to the transformed data). Response - The message sent back to the originating system (at the very end, after all destinations finish). Destination Connector Raw - The state of the message as it enters the connector. For a destination connector, this is the same as the source encoded data. Transformed - The serialized internal representation of the message, which exists only if a connecto

Batch Processing

Batch Processing allows a channel to receive a single message, but split it into multiple messages that each get processed through the channel. When using this along with a source connector that supports streaming (File Reader, TCP Listener in MLLP mode), batch processing has the added benefit of not having to read the entire file into memory all at once, but instead only one message at a time. For example with the File Reader and batch processing you can read in files that are gigabytes in size, without causing any memory issues for your Mirth Connect server. Data types that support batch processing will have a Batch Properties section in the source inbound data type properties. To enable batch processing, set Process Batch to Yes in the Source Settings. To change how an incoming message is split into multiple messages, look at the Batch Properties section of the source inbound data type you are using. For example, the Delimited Text Data Type has options to split by record delimiter,

Reprocess Results

When you select the Reprocess Results task, a confirmation dialog pops up. Note that all messages and associated attachments matching the current search criteria are reprocessed, not only the ones shown on the current page. Other than the additional warning, the options here are the same as in the Reprocess Message task. After selecting Yes to continue, the following additional dialog displays: This is an additional layer of security to ensure that you do not reprocess a large amount of messages accidentally. To proceed you must type in REPROCESSALL in all capital letters and select OK. Note that, if you find this additional layer of security tedious, it can be disabled in the Administrator Settings Tab.

Remove Results

When you select the Remove Results task, a confirmation dialog pops up. Note that all messages and associated attachments matching the current search criteria are removed, not only the ones shown on the current page. Removing a Source Connector message also automatically removes all of its associated destination connectors. After selecting Yes to continue, the following additional dialog displays: This is an additional layer of security to ensure that you do not remove message data accidentally. To proceed you must type in REMOVEALL in all capital letters and select OK. Note that, if you find this additional layer of security tedious, it can be disabled in the Administrator Settings Tab.

Source Map Variables

If this connector receives a message from a Channel Writer, the following source map variables will be available: Key Description sourceChannelId The unique ID of the channel that dispatched a message to the current channel. sourceMessageId The ID of the message from which the current message dispatch originated. sourceChannelIds If there are more than two channels in a Channel Writer -> Reader chain, this will be a List containing the IDs of all channels in the chain. sourceMessageIds If there are more than two channels in a Channel Writer -> Reader chain, this will be a List containing the IDs of all messages in the chain.

Message Browser Tasks

The following context-specific tasks are available from the Message Browser View: Task Icon Task Name Description Refresh Updates messages within the current search page. Note that this is different from selecting the Search button. The Search operation performs a completely new search without a Max Message Id and resets the count and pagination options. The Refresh task re-performs the search using the existing Max Message Id, so that no new messages since the last Search will be included. Also, it preserves the current page being viewed instead of reverting back to the first page. Send Message Sends a message to the current channel. For additional information, see Send Message. Import Messages Imports messages from a file. Note that imported messages are only directly stored in the channel's message data, and not actually processed through the channel. For additional information, see Import Messages. Export Results Exports all messages that match the current search criteria. Note tha
