Creating endpoints

You create an endpoint to identify a target location and the transport mechanism that the integration framework, or deployment manager uses to publish data, or to invoke a service.

Procedure

  1. In the End Points application, click New End Point.
  2. In the End Point field, specify an identifier for the endpoint.
  3. In the Handler field, specify a value. The Consumed By field displays the information that is associated with the specified endpoint handler.
  4. In the Properties for End Point window, click View Details of the endpoint property field and perform the following actions:
    1. Add a unique value to the Value field to identify the endpoint property.
    2. Add a value to the Encrypted Value to identify whether the endpoint property needs additional security for storage and display. You can update an encrypted value only on an endpoint with a password property.
    3. Select the Allow Override check box to identify whether you can overwrite the code for the endpoint property. Select this check box when you use an invocation channel processing class.
  5. Click Save End Point.

What to do next

You can add a handler to specify how to route outbound data to a specific endpoint location in a specific format. You can use the endpoint in the following integration framework applications:

  • External Systems
  • Publish Channels
  • Invocation Channels
  • Integration Modules
  • Logical Management Operations
