Container DFHWS-DATA

Stabilized feature: Service Flow Runtime and Service Flow Modeler capability in IBM Developer for z/OS 14.2.3 are stabilized. Consider exposing and orchestrating applications as API services by using z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition or CICS® web services, or by writing web applications in Java or Node.js. See also Stabilization notices and discontinued functions.

DFHWS-DATA passes the request name and application data to the CICS SFR interface program, DFHMADPL, when a Web service request is received and processed in a provider mode pipeline.

The request name is eight characters in length. By default, the request name is the same as the PROCESSTYPE resource for the service flow. When the pipeline application handler passes this container to DFHMADPL, request processing uses the default values for the header. You can override these default values by passing in additional containers.

The length of this container can be up to, but not equal to, 16 MB.
