Creating an account on the on-premises Integration Server

About this task

An account on the on-premises Integration Server acts as a two-way communication channel for data transfer between the on-premises Integration Server and webMethods Integration. When you run the application that is uploaded on webMethods Integration, it in turn starts the application instance that is deployed on the on-premises Integration Server where the actual execution takes place. The output or response of this execution is then sent back to webMethods Integration.

Procedure

  1. To create a new account, go to webMethods Cloud > Accounts, and select Create On-Premise Account.
  2. On the Create Account page, enter the following details.

    • Request timeout - Enter the maximum limit (in milliseconds) for the request timeout.
    • Time to Live - Enter the time (in milliseconds) for which the execution results should remain in the cache of the on-premises Integration Server. This is applicable only if you are batching the data.
    • Allowed On-Premise Hosts - The on-premises Integration Server can use multiple addresses to access webMethods Integration. You can specify a comma-separated list of IP addresses that can receive requests from webMethods Integration. Only these IP addresses can receive requests.
