Mapping interfaces in mediation flows
You can easily map interfaces and their operations in a mediation flow by using a template in the mediation flow editor. The operation map template provides functionality similar to the deprecated interface maps created in the interface map editor.
Before you begin, you need to create a mediation flow with an interface that contains the operations that you want to map.
To map operations using the template:
Procedure
- In the overview page of the mediation flow editor, click the source operation that you want to map.
- In the template selection window that appears, choose Operation Map.
- Select the target interface and operation, and click OK.
- A request flow opens, showing a wired flow that has an input node for the source operation, a callout for the target, and an XSLT mediation primitive to map between the two.
- Click the XSLT mediation primitive and click Finish in the New XML Map wizard.
- Map the source and target elements in the map editor and save your changes.
- If the source operation is a request response operation, a response flow is also created to process the message that is returned by the target operation. Complete the response flow using the procedure described in the previous steps.
