Integration Objects

---

Siebel integration objects allow you to represent integration metadata between a Siebel business object and an external XML standard, using the IFX XML DTD. The integration object represents a common structure that the eBusiness Application Integration (eAI) infrastructure can understand.

Because these integration objects adhere to a set of structural conventions, they can be traversed and transformed programmatically, using Siebel eScript objects, methods, and functions, or transformed declaratively using Siebel Data Mapper.

To use the Siebel Connector for IFX XML to integrate data you need to build three different integration objects:

IFX XML Envelope Integration Object. An envelope integration object provides envelope and header information for an IFX XML document.

User properties in an IFX XML envelope provide flexibility to the connector. For example, when a user sends an initial IFX XML request, the IFX XML document uses a <SignonRq> header that is different from subsequent <SignonRq> headers. Two different integration component user properties, initsignon and sessionsignon, can be used to construct different headers under the same envelope.

IFX XML Internal Integration Object. An internal integration object represents the Siebel business object hierarchy for a particular Siebel business object.
IFX XML External Integration Object. An external integration object represents the IFX XML hierarchy for a particular IFX XML message.
