Sending Universal Messaging or Broker Notification
Note: This feature is deprecated.
To send an
Universal Messaging or
Broker notification
1. In My webMethods: Administration > Integration > Managed File Transfer > Event Management.
3. Click the tab containing the event for which you are creating the file operation action (Post-Processing Events or Scheduled Events).
4. Select the event in the event list.
5. In the Actions section, click the Select Action list.
6. In the resulting dialog box, do the following:
a. Click the Select Category list and select Send Universal Messaging/Broker Notification.
b. Click the Package box and select the package that contains the Integration Server document type you want to use.
c. Click the Service box and select the Integration Server document type you want to use.
d. Click OK.
7. In the Source Filter box, enter the name of the file whose transfer will trigger this event. By default, ActiveTransfer Server considers all files.
Note: You can use wildcard characters to filter the file names. For example, enter *.zip to trigger the event only when zip files are uploaded or downloaded. To trigger an event based on a name string in the zip files, use the name string in the Source Filter box, preceded and followed by wildcard characters. For example, enter *invoice*.zip to trigger the event based on the file URLs, when zip files containing the character string invoice in their file names are uploaded or downloaded. If you define a Source Filter for an action, the action acts only on the files that are filtered out.
For information on the use of wildcards in
ActiveTransfer Server, see
Use of Special Characters in Search.
8. If you want to use regular expression in the source filter, specify a valid regular expression in Source Filter and select Use regular expression.
Examples for regular expressions:
(.(?!purchaseorder))* | Excludes files with the file URL containing purchaseorder |
.*/out/.* | Include files with the file URL containing the folder out |
^abc(.*)123$ | Includes anything that starts with abc and ends with 123. Matches abc123, abcxyz123, but not abcxyz123def |
NEW-((*.doc)|(*_backup_*)) | Includes anything starting with NEW- that either ends in .doc, or is followed by the string _backup_ |
9. If you want ActiveTransfer to provide the path of the target file to the respective service, select Include file path. The file path information is available as input parameter filePath.
10. If you want to populate the fileContent parameter, select Include file content.
11. Specify content for the document type that you selected, and add any content types as required. For more information about document types, Universal Messaging, or Broker notifications, see the Universal Messaging, Broker, and Integration Server documentation.
12. If you want to execute an error action if the file operation fails, select Execute error action.
13. Click Save.
14. If you selected the Execute error action check box, define an error action as described in Defining an Error Action. 15. If you are finished defining actions for this event, activate the event as described in Activating an Event. Result:
The “Send Universal Messaging/Broker Notification” action, sends an Universal Messaging or Broker notification for each file in the list that is passed on to the action by the previous action. This action does not modify the list of files from the previous action.
