Setting the Encoding Type for the Universal Messaging Document Types

When you use the Universal Messaging protocol as the Receive Protocol for a subscription triggered process, you must set the encoding type for the Universal Messaging documents in the process model. By default, the encoding type for process model documents is set to IData, but Universal Messaging documents require ProtoBuf encoding.

To set the encoding type for Universal Messaging document types:

1. In Designer, navigate to the document type for which you want to set the encoding type.

2. Lock the document type for editing.

3. On the Property tab, expand the webMethods Messaging section.

4. In Encoding type, select Protocol buffers.

After you set the encoding type for a Universal Messaging document type, synchronize the Universal Messaging documents with the messaging provider.
