About Sharing Metadata on an On-Premise Integration Server
You create applications on the on-premise Integration Server to share services with Integration Cloud. Keep the following points in mind while sharing services through an application:
You can share only services running on the on-premise
Integration Server configured to create applications on
Integration Cloud.
You can share only services contained in custom packages.
You can share services from different packages in the same application. For example, if service A is located in package A, and service B is located in package B, you can add both service A and service B to the same application.
You can share only those services whose signatures are of the following data types:
String
String List
Document
Document Reference
Document List
Document Reference List
Object
Object List
You can share only those services that have an input and/or output signature specified.
You can set the on-premise
Integration Server to send service results to
Integration Cloud in batches.
You cannot share service signatures that include:
Cyclical dependencies of document references.
Fields of type String Table, including fields of type String Table in a Document.
An empty Document or Document List.
You must configure one or more accounts to associate with the application before you can upload the application to
Integration Cloud. For more information about configuring accounts, see
Configuring Accounts for Integration Cloud
.
You must upload the application for the updates to be shared with
Integration Cloud if you edit:
The application.
The signature or referenced Document of a service shared by the application.
When you upload an application, it replaces the application and operations available on
Integration Cloud with the one that you upload.
