Integration Framework Binary Text feature explained

Troubleshooting


Problem

The Integration Framework can only support data that is sent or received in UTF-8 format. However non UTF-8 data can be added to ALN / LONGALN fields, which causes parsing failures if sent through the Integration Framework.

Symptom

The following error would be seen when trying to create an Outbound message with non UTF-8 data in one or more of its attributes:
