Terminate activity
The Terminate activity stops all
further orchestration job processing in the current branch.
Pick activity
The Pick activity determines what
starter activity to launch based on the action that has occurred during
run time.
If..Then activity
The If..Then activity tests the Where expression
in the If branches to determine what branch
of the If..Then activity to run.
Try activity
The Try... activity attempts to
run the activity or activities in the main Try branch.
Group activity
Use this activity to group a set of activities in an orchestration.
As a group, you can name, add comments, and collapse the block of
activities as one entity.
While Loop activity
The While Loop activity initiates
and continually processes any associated activities for as long as
the specified condition evaluates to true.
For Each activity
The For Each activity iterates through
recurring elements of a variable, performing other activities during
each iteration cycle.
Split activity
The Split activity is a variation
of the For Each activity that can be used to
break up very large messages to improve performance
Break Loop activity
During run time, when a Break Loop activity
is processed, the processing flow breaks out of the current looping
activity and continues to the next activity in the orchestration
Continue activity
The Continue activity jumps to the
next item to process in the loop and is typically placed after an If or
an If..Then activity.
Moving branches
You can change the position of a branch within an If..Then activity
or a Pick activity.
Defining conditions
You can specify conditions in If..Then and While
Loop activities to define a criteria that must be met
before the orchestration continues with that branch.
Basic condition syntax
There are various types of conditions that you can use
to evaluate an XPath expression.
Basic XPath expressions
XPath expressions are used in orchestrations and flat file
schema definitions when you need to identify one or more nodes in
a message or variable in order to access data or determine whether
a condition has been met.
Testing XPath expressions
Use the XPath Evaluator to test XPath expressions against
test XML documents.
