Define IB Generic Message Feed - Advanced Feed Options page

Use the Advanced Feed Options page to define advanced options for Integration Broker generic message feeds.

Field or Control Description

Max Number of Entries (maximum number of entries)

Enter the maximum number of entries that the feed should return to the user. Enter 0 for unlimited entries up to the maximum row limit specified on the Feed Options page, which is 300 by default.

Note: You configure the upper limit on the Feed Options page.

Paging

Select one of these options:

  • No Paging: Indicates that the feed is not paged. This value is the default.

  • Segmented: Indicates that the feed is paged.

    A paged feed is a feed that has been split into pages (also know as segments) to improve system performance in delivering the feed document and to improve performance for consuming a feed. A paged feed is presented with first, last, next, and previous links to provide access to additional pages in the feed document.

    Note: When Segmented is selected as the paging option, then the Max Number of Entries and Incremental Feed fields are disabled.

Incremental Feed

Select one of these options:

  • Yes: Indicates that the feed is incremental.

    An incremental feed is a feed that has been published and updated with timestamps that allow the feed content to be delivered incrementally. An incremental feed allows the Feed Publishing Framework to deliver only the feed content that has changed since the feed was last requested by the user.

  • No: Indicates that the feed is incremental. This value is the default.
