Processing Panel


Overview

The Input–Processing–Output (IPO) model is a simple way to explain how any system works — whether it’s a computer program, business process, or integration flow. Processing is the action performed on input data to transform it into a useful form. It may include:
  1. Calculations/Expression building
  2. Validation
  3. Data transformation (XML → JSON)
  4. Business logic execution
  5. Database queries
  6. Filtering or sorting

Processing Section

  1. This section explains the data that the system uses to transform the input.
  2. The section provides the following tabs:
    1. Details
    2. Configuration
    3. Design
    4. Processed
  3. By default, the Details tab will open. However, you can switch between the tabs by clicking on them.
  4. Each section is explained in detail in the following sections of this article.

Details Tab

  1. By default, the Details tab is shown on the Processing tab. However, if you are on any other tab, click on the Details tab. The section displays the following fields:
    1. Name:
      1. It provides the name of the processing unit.
      2. You can modify the unit name in this field. Click on the field, and modify the name of the unit.
      3. Once you are done with the modification, click on the Save button provided in the action area of the screen.
    2. Description:
      1. It describes the processing unit.
      2. You can modify the unit's description in this field. Click the field and change the unit's description.
      3. Once you are done with the modification, click on the Save button provided in the action area of the screen.


Configuration Tab

  1. Click the Configuration tab; it becomes active and displays configuration details.
  2. The configuration details may vary from unit to unit. Based on the selected unit, the configurational information will be provided on the screen.
  3. You are allowed to modify any configuration values in any field. The fields could be drop-downs, text boxes, toggle switches, etc.

Design Tab

  1. Click on the Design tab; it becomes active and displays the following sub-sections.
    1. Endpoint
    2. Request Document
    3. Key Handling
    4. Extended Error Handling
    5. HTTP Code Handling
  2. Click any of the sub-sections to expand and view its details.
  3. You can also modify the details in any of the sections. Once modified, click on the Save button.


Run Unit and View Output

  1. The Run button is provided in the header. This allows you to run the selected unit individually and view its output data in the Output section.
  2. You can modify its configurations and run the process to view the output.
  3. Click on the Run button.
Notes
Please note that this feature is only supported for XSLT, JSONata, and Database flow units.


  1. The unit processes input data and produces output.
  2. This allows you to adjust the input for the desired output. Using this option, you can control the production of each process unit.

Processed Tab

  1. This tab will only be shown whenever the flow is executed.
  2. The tab will display execution details such as traceID, duration, start time, and end time.
