The "Content-Based" Routing Step (REST)

Option	Description
Name	You can optionally change the step name. There are no naming restrictions.
Type	(Read-only field.) Routing Rule.
Protocol	(Read-only field.) HTTP.
Routing Type	Select Content-Based.
Rule Name	Assign a name to the rule.
XPath	The XPath field is applicable only while creating SOAP Virtual Services.
Route To	Specify where to route the request if the rule criteria are met. Specify either the URL of a native service or a connection pool name. Then, click the icon next to this field and complete the Configure Endpoint Properties dialog box as follows:
	Connection Timeout: The time interval (in seconds) after which a connection attempt will timeout. If a value is not specified (or if the value 0 is specified), CloudStreams will use the default value specified in Integration Server. Read Timeout: The time interval (in seconds) after which a socket read attempt will timeout. If a value is not specified (or if the value 0 is specified), the default is 30 seconds.
	SSL Options: Optional. To enable SSL client authentication for the endpoint, you must specify values for both the Client Certificate Alias field and the IS Keystore Alias field. If you specify a value for only one of these fields, a deployment error will occur. You may leave both fields blank. Client Certificate Alias: The client's private key to be used for performing SSL client authentication. IS Keystore Alias: The keystore alias of the instance of Integration Server on which CloudStreams is running. This value (along with the value of Client Certificate Alias) will be used for performing SSL client authentication.
HTTP Method	The HTTP method to pass to the rule.
Default To	Enter a native service endpoint to route the request to in case all routing rules evaluate to False. Then, click the icon next to this field and complete the Configure Endpoint Properties dialog box, as described for the Route To field above.
HTTP Method	The HTTP method to pass to the native service. Typically you want to pass each request to the native service with the same HTTP method that is contained in the request. For example, if a request contains a GET method, you allow the GET method to be passed to the native service. In this case, select the value CUSTOM, which is a context variable that contains the HTTP method that is contained in the request. However, in other cases you might want to change the HTTP method of a request to a different HTTP method. In this case, you can specify the different method explicitly (by selecting the GET, POST, PUT or DELETE value), or you can specify the different method dynamically on a per-request basis. If you want to specify the method dynamically, select the CUSTOM option and then write an IS service to set the value of the context variable. For more information, see Changing the HTTP Method of a REST Virtual Service.
Use credentials from incoming request	Default. Authenticates requests based on the credentials specified in the HTTP header. CloudStreams passes the Authorization header present in the original client request to the native service.
Use specific credentials	Authenticates requests according to the values you specify in the User, Password and Domain fields.
Invoke service anonymously	Does not authenticate requests.
Use existing HTTP Headers	Use the HTTP headers that are contained in the requests.
Customize HTTP Headers	Use the HTTP headers that you specify in the Name and Value columns on this page. If you need to specify multiple headers, use the plus button to add rows.
