Support objects - Introduction

Key concepts == This microlearning focuses on support objects. With support objects, we mean: Component that help the functional components do the work they are supposed to do == 3.

To register such a list, you can add a support object called a Composite file list filter. [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@crashcourse-platform-create-support-objects-introduction--composite-file-list-filter-selection.png]] Opening the support object will give you the following pop-up.

Key takeaways == * Support objects help other functional components in executing their functional * Support objects can help in various categories * Each support object has a specific task and uses a case == 5.

These support objects are: - Merlin crypto - WSS4J security interceptor In the merlin crypto support object, you need to reference the Keystore you need to authenticate yourself with the external party.

The support object you need to link to the entry is: * Merlin crypto In the merlin crypto support object, you need to reference the truststore where you store the public certificate against which the external needs to authenticate themselves. [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-webservice-security-ws-security--ws-security-merlin-crypto-entry.png]] Next to adding the support object, you must open the message dispatcher support object.

If the answer is yes for the flow you are currently editing, you should add a JSON source factory support object and couple this to the validation. See below for how this looks [[image:Main.Images.Migrationpath.WebHome@migration-path-json-related-transformations--JSON-to-XML-transformation-add-support-objects.png]] 14.

If the answer is yes for the flow you are currently editing, you have a choice to make a) If the output is JSON, you have to add two support objects. One support object is called JSON result transformer, and the other is JSON result factory. See step 16 for more details b) If the output is XML, you must add one support object. This support object is called the result to string transformer.

Minor Changes Create - Flow Designer: The view button that can be found by navigating to the right panel of the Flow Designer and choosing the Support Objects tab opens a pop-up that shows a list of all support objects that can be added. This button is accessible only in the view mode of the Flow Designer. (#870) Bug fixes Create - Flow Creation: When creating the corresponding infra and entry flows belonging to a system that will host a SOAP endpoint, we fixed a bug causing two support objects to break upon creation. (#1517) Manage - Dashboard: The manage phase dashboard no longer breaks when an error occurs in a component with an id that does not follow the convention, or when that value is longer than expected. (#1566)

This release, we have done several improvements for our Failover functionality and added two configuration options for our SMB session factory support objects. We have also updated our password policy, so from now on you are required to have a password with a minimum length of 14 characters!

Minor changes Create - Flow Designer: We have added two additional configuration options to the SMB session factory support object. Connect as guest: We have added the option to toggle whether the session factory should attempt to connect as a guest if the login attempt with the provided username and password is rejected.

Manage - Error messages: The status of error messages can now be reset to empty. (#965) Bug fixes Create - Flow Designer: If a component misses a support object, an alert is now shown in the Flow Designer, displaying which support object is missing. (#1305) Create - Flow Designer: The XML to flat file and flat file to XML transformers have been restyled, such that they are similar to all other components. (#1153) Create - Flow Designer: We fixed an issue where the browser page would get frozen when editing a flow component.

. === 3.2 Calling an external SOAP Webservice that requires WS-Addressing === To ensure that eMagiz creates the required SOAP headers on top of your SOAP message, you must add one support object to the flow where you want to call the external web service (predominantly the exit). This support object is: - WS-Addressing action callback Within this component, you can set the following headers as well as choose the version of WS-Addressing that is required: - Action (required) - To - From - Reply To - Fault To [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-webservice-security-ws-addressing--ws-addressing-basic.png]] [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-webservice-security-ws-addressing--ws-addressing-advanced.png]] When you are satisfied with your configuration, you can link this support object to the web service outbound gateway as follows: [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-webservice-security-ws-addressing--ws-addressing-callback.png]] After doing all this, you can test the flow to verify that the WS-Addressing is correctly configured, allowing you to call the external web service. == 4.

Removed obsolete support object 'Management'. Removed obsolete "SOAP over JMS" functionality, i.e., the 'JMS listener container' and 'Web service message listener' support objects. Added many new (advanced) settings to the support object 'Apache ActiveMQ Artemis server'. See the build number 59 release notes for details.

In this microlearning, we’ll focus on the right-hand panel of the flow editor, where you’ll find key features like alerts, resources, support objects, and properties that help you fine-tune your integration.

[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@crashcourse-platform-create-flow-editor-basics--right-panel-add-model-resource.png]] === 3.3 Support objects === In the tab with the support objects, the current support objects in the flow can be seen. [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@crashcourse-platform-create-flow-editor-basics--right-panel-support-objects.png]] For more information on support objects and how to configure them please check out this [[microlearning>>Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-create-support-objects-introduction||target="blank"]]. === 3.4 Properties === In the properties tab, it can be viewed which properties are being used in the flow.

To do so you need the following: * A SQL resource that defines the table structure * The support object called JDBC H2 Connection Pool * The support object called JDBC initialize database A simple SQL statement that defines a table that holds the access token could look something like this.

[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-solution-architecture-h2-database-for-other-applications--jdbc-h2-component-filled.png]] The third and final step to set up the table within the H2 database is to add the support object called JDBC initialize database. [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@expert-solution-architecture-h2-database-for-other-applications--jdbc-h2-initialize-empty.png]] There are two things we need to do to configure the component correctly. First, we need to link this component to the support object we have just created. Second, we need to refer to the SQL script that we have uploaded to our flow.

Bug fixes Create - Flow designer: The help text for the "value expression" field for the "duplicate detector" support object better reflects the purpose of that field while also providing practical examples. (#1376) Create - Flow Designer: The help text for the "virtual root "field of the "JSON source factory "support object better reflects the functionality and behavior of the field while also stating that arrays on the root level are not supported. (#1459) General - User Access: Users with view rights in Deploy and Manage (but no rights in the other phases) can now see data in Manage grids. (#1525)
