Introduction #
The SKYVVA Integration App is a powerful tool designed to facilitate seamless data integration between Salesforce and external systems. With its robust features, businesses can efficiently manage complex integration scenarios, ensuring data consistency and reliability. One critical aspect of this integration process is handling empty messages during inbound processing, which can occur when an external system sends a message with missing or null content. Properly managing these empty messages is essential to maintaining the integrity of your data flow and preventing disruptions in your business processes.
In the context of API integrations, particularly with SKYVVA’s API v3 and v4, handling empty messages involves setting the appropriate status based on predefined business rules. The SKYVVA Integration App allows you to raise errors and set specific statuses when an empty message is encountered during inbound processing. These statuses include:
- Failed: When an empty message is received, you can configure the system to raise an error and set the status to ‘Failed‘. This indicates that the message was not processed successfully due to missing content, allowing you to quickly identify and address the issue.
- Pending: In some scenarios, you may want to flag the empty message for further review or processing later. By setting the status to ‘Pending‘, you can keep track of these messages and determine the appropriate action without immediately failing the transaction.
- Cancelled: If an empty message is deemed unnecessary or irrelevant, you can raise an error and set the status to ‘Cancelled‘. This option helps you manage your message queue efficiently by removing messages that do not require processing.
By using the SKYVVA Integration App’s API v3 and v4 capabilities to handle empty messages in this manner, you can ensure that your data integration processes remain robust and error-free. This approach enhances your ability to manage exceptions effectively, maintain data integrity, and streamline your overall integration workflow.
Case1 API integrateV3(): #
To utilize the API integrateV3() for managing empty message status and handling errors with the SKYVVA integration application, follow these steps:
- Identify Empty Message: Before invoking the API, ensure the user has detected an empty message that handles status. An empty message occurs when there’s a lack of data or invalid input.
Business scenario by using Postman
- The error occurs when the payload does not match the mapping message type on the interface.
- API integrateV3(): Once an empty message is identified, API integrateV3() to process it. This API lets you interact with the SKYVVA integration application to set the status and manage the message flow.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Failed‘: The empty message cannot be processed due to critical errors or missing data, raise an error within the message monitoring and set the status to ‘Failed‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Pending‘: In scenarios where the processing of the empty message is temporarily halted or awaiting further actions, raise an error accordingly and set the status to ‘Pending‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Cancelled‘: The processing of the empty message needs to be terminated quickly or canceled due to specific conditions, raise an error and set the status to ‘Cancelled‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist
Case2 API integrateV4(): #
To utilize the API integrateV4() for managing empty message status and handling errors with the SKYVVA integration application, follow these steps:
- Identify Empty Message: Before invoking the API, ensure the user has detected an empty message that handles status. An empty message occurs when there’s a lack of data or invalid input.
Business scenario by using Postman
- The error occurs when the payload does not match the mapping message type on the interface.
- API integrateV4(): Once an empty message is identified, API integrateV4() to process it. This API lets you interact with the SKYVVA integration application to set the status and manage the message flow.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Failed‘: The empty message cannot be processed due to critical errors or missing data, raise an error within the message monitoring and set the status to ‘Failed‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Pending‘: In scenarios where the processing of the empty message is temporarily halted or awaiting further actions, raise an error accordingly and set the status to ‘Pending‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist.
- Raise an Error and set the status to ‘Cancelled‘: The processing of the empty message needs to be terminated quickly or canceled due to specific conditions, raise an error and set the status to ‘Cancelled‘ using the Runtime configuration-Inbound “What to do with an empty message?” picklist
By effectively following these steps and leveraging the API integrateV3() & integrateV4() the user can efficiently manage empty message status and handle errors within your SKYVVA integration application.
