Workflow to Create and Add a REST Adapter Connection to an Integration
You follow a very simple workflow to create a connection with an adapter and include the connection in an integration in Oracle Integration.
| Step | Description | More Information | 
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Decide where to work | 
 | 
| 2 | Create the adapter connections for the applications you want to integrate. The connections can be reused in multiple integrations and are typically created by the administrator. | |
| 3 | Create the integration. When you do this, you add trigger and invoke connections to the integration. | Understand Integration Creation and Best Practices and Add the REST Adapter Connection to an Integration | 
| 4 | Map data between the trigger connection data structure and the invoke connection data structure. | Map Data in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 | 
| 5 | (Optional) Create lookups that map the different values used by those applications to identify the same type of object (such as gender codes or country codes). | Manage Lookups in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 | 
| 6 | Activate the integration. | Manage Integrations in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 | 
| 7 | Monitor the integration on the dashboard. | Monitor Integrations During Runtime in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 | 
| 8 | Track payload fields in messages during runtime. | Assign Business Identifiers for Tracking Fields in Messages and Track Integration Instances in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 | 
| 9 | Manage errors at the integration level, connection level, or specific integration instance level. | Manage Errors in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3 |
