2.95 Specify Key Dialog

Use to create a key to point to the data in the Oracle ADF Business Component data provider service. Oracle BPEL Process Manager fetches the key when access to the data is required.

Element Description

Key Local Part

Enter the local part of the key.

Key Namespace URI

Enter the namespace URI of the key.

Key Value

Enter the key value expression. This expression must match the type of a key. The following examples show expression value keys for a purchase order ID (POID) key:

  • $inputMsg.payload/tns:poid

  • bpws:getVariableData('inputmsg','payload','tns:poid')

The POID key for an entity variable typically comes from another message. If the type of POID key is an integer and the expression result is a string of ABC, the string-to-integer fails and the bind entity activity also fails at runtime.
