In the annotation, you either describe a best practice everyone should follow when they change that flow (i.e. within the asynchronous routing), describe how the (more complex) parts of the flow work or describe (parts of) of your message definitions (i.e. CDM, API Gateway Data model, system message, etc.).

But before we do, we first explain how to set up this configuration within eMagiz. Then, you must navigate to Deploy -> Architecture on the model level. In this overview, you can access the Volume mapping per runtime deployed on-premise. To do so, you can right-click on the runtime to access the context menu. 33 33 34 - To clarify the use cases let us take a look at how annotations can be added within the eMagiz platform.n our first example, we will takea look at asynchronous routing.In many eMagiz projects, a best practice is followed on how toadd something to the asynchronous routing(or changesomething within the asynchronous routing). Becausethe best practice contains multiplesteps it makessense touse the annotation functionalityfeMagiz todefine all these steps andregister them at the place youneed them(i.e. the asynchronous routing). Having doneso will resultin somethinglike this:35 +[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-file-based-connectivity-volume-mapping-on-premise--volume-option-context-menu.png]] 35 35 36 - [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--annotation-best-practice-async-routing.png]]37 +When you click this option, you will see the following pop-up. In this pop-up, you can define the machine-level and runtime-level volumes. More on that later. This is the starting point for configuring your volume mapping. We will walk through each available option and explain how they work and should be configured. 37 37 38 - The second exampleisabout usingnnotations on theflow level to describeparts of the flow. Inthisexample, we will use the annotation to describethat we use afilter to determine which messagesarepickedup from a local directory and how wefilter. That wayanywayopening the flow has tomerely read the annotationtoget the context. Having donesowill result in somethinglike this:39 +[[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-file-based-connectivity-volume-mapping-on-premise--volume-mapping-pop-up.png]] 39 39 40 - [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--describe-parts-of-flow.png]]41 +{{info}}Note that you should be in "Start editing" mode to make any changes to the configuration of your volume mapping.{{/info}} 41 41 42 - Thethird example does not take place on the flow level but the message definition level.Therefore instead of going to Create, we go to Design. In Design when you navigate to the CDM, API Gateway Data model, Event Streaming Data model, message definitions, etc. youhave the option to add annotations to the canvas. In this example,we want to make clear to all that make changes that a certain part of our CDM is used by a lot of integrations within eMagiz and therefore everyone should be careful and think twice before adjusting anything related to that part. Having done so will result in something like this:43 +=== 3.1 Volume === 43 43 44 - [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--describe-crucial-part-of-cdm.png]]45 +=== 3.2 Bind mount === 45 45 46 - Nowthat we saw some examples let us turn our attention to the how.How can I add an annotation and how can I link it. Adding theannotation is simple. You drag the annotation icon from the left context menu onto the canvas. As a result, an emptyannotation will be shown on the canvas. Bydouble-clicking on ityou can typewhatever you want. Note that you need to be in "Start Editing"modeto change anything, including annotations.47 +=== 3.3 Temporary file system === 47 47 48 - [[image:Main.Images.Microlearning.WebHome@novice-devops-perspectives-annotations--annotation-icon-context-menu.png]]49 +=== 3.4 Named pipe === 49 49 50 -When you are satisfied with what you have written down you can press the Save button. After you have done so you can rescale the annotation to ensure that the complete text is visible. To link the annotation to a component (on flow level) or an entity (on message definition level) you hover over the annotation until your mouse indicator changes to a + icon, execute a right-click and drag from the annotation to the component in question. 51 - 52 -Now you know what annotations are good for and how you can add them within the eMagiz platform. 53 - 54 54 == 4.
