Create new Data Flow entry

Self-explanatory.

Import package

Imports a previously exported package (→ see Export package).

In another dialogue you can then select which elements of the Data Flow entry from the package you actually want to import.

Swagger import

Here you can upload a swagger file (directly or via URL). Various settings will be made in the Input Agent (HTTP method, URL, content type) and, if necessary, a suitable source structure is created (and target structure via 1:1 mapping). If the path contains a URL variable, suitable MSG_CALL_ variables are created in the profile and inserted into the URL (→ trigger profile via HTTP). Additionally, a Data Flow entry is created, which contains all the created profiles in its diagram.

(1) The name of the Data Flow entry to be created.

(2) The profile group in which the profiles to be created are saved.

(3) Prefix for the names of the profiles to be created.

(4) Selection of a swagger file for uploading or URL to the file.

(5) Click here. This opens another dialogue for selecting the endpoints.

(6) Selected endpoints.

(7) Click here. This creates one profile per endpoint and one Data Flow entry containing these profiles.

Note: See also section HTTP (Input Agent cron) (→ Swagger Import).

Import Transport Manager package

If Data Flow entries were transferred via Transport Manager, they can be imported here.

Create new group/Change group/Delete group

Self-explanatory.

Edit/View entry

Self-explanatory.

Open in new window

Opens the Data Flow entry in another browser tab. Attention : Your browser might block this as an unauthorised popup. Check your browser settings if necessary. See also section Help.

Duplicate entry

Creates a copy of the Data Flow entry. Only a copy of the Data Flow entry itself is created. The elements it contains, such as profiles, are not copied (→ see also Complete deep copy).

Contents

Shows a list of all elements used in the Data Flow entry.

To clipboard

Allows copying the name and ID of the Data Flow entry in another dialogue.

Set entries to 'active'/'inactive'

Self-explanatory.

Complete deep copy (including all entries)

Creates a copy of the Data Flow entry. A copy is created of the Data Flow entry itself and of all the elements it contains, such as profiles (→ see also Duplicate entry). The copy created in this way, with all the elements it contains, is completely referenced in itself and thus completely separate from the copied Data Flow entry and its elements. Note: Used channels are not copied.

(1) Refers to the name of the Data Flow entry and the names of all elements used in it (e. g. profiles). The prefix is always placed in front or replaces the substring to be replaced if it is found. Example: My_DataFlow becomes V2_My_DataFlow and V1_My_DataFlow becomes V2_My_DataFlow.

(2) Refers to the name of the Data Flow entry and the names of all elements used in it (e. g. profiles). The suffix is always appended or replaces the substring to be replaced if it is found.

(3) Refers to profiles used in the Data Flow entry with Input Agents HTTP time-driven (→ field URL) and HTTP event-driven (→ field URL address suffix). The suffix is always appended or replaces the substring to be replaced if it is found.

(4) If the Data Flow entry contains an ASM entry, this suffix is appended (or replaced) there in the Main settings in field Directory and in the name of the copied ASM entry.

(5) This can be used to replace system constants that are used in the Data Flow entry itself or in elements contained therein (e.g. profiles). The system constants must be selected manually, no automatic list is created.

Export package (including all entries)

Exports the Data Flow entry and all elements contained in it (→ see also Import package). Another dialogue will appear for this purpose.

(1) and (2) Select the elements to be exported here.

Import package

Imports a previously exported package (→ see Export package).

In another dialogue you can then select which elements of the Data Flow entry from the package you actually want to import.

Swagger import

See the entry with the same name in the group context menu.

Import Transport Manager package

If Data Flow entries were transferred via Transport Manager, they can be imported here. In another dialogue you can then select which elements of the Data Flow entry from the package you actually want to import, see Import package.

Delete

Deletes the Data Flow entry itself, but not elements contained in it (→ see also Delete with references).

Delete with references

Attention: This deletes the Data Flow entry itself and also any elements (profiles, ASM and Content Inspection entries, etc.) contained in it. However, another dialogue appears for this purpose, in which you can select the elements to be deleted.
