Defining Transforms

To define transforms

1. Click New on the Transforms list applet on the EAI Dispatch Service View to create a new transform.
2. Provide the following fields for the new record:
   • Target. Defines how the intermediate output is going to be generated before it is dispatched to the service and the method you specified in the rule. For details, see Output Transformation.
   • Source Expression. The source expression is used to assign a value to the target. You can either use a search expression pointing to a node in the input hierarchy or a literal value enclosed in quotes. For details, see Search Expression Grammar.
   • Property Name. The name of the property to be set. This value is only used when the Target is set to Property. For the other Target types this field is inactive.

     NOTE:  See EAI Dispatch Service Scenarios and Examples of Search Expression Grammar for more details on these parameters.

3. Save your transform.

   This saves and validates your transform.
