Business Service Message Type Configuration page
Use the AquaLogic Business Service Message Type Configuration page to configure message types for a business service whose type is Messaging Service. This page appears both in the New AquaLogic Business Service wizard and in the AquaLogic Business Service editor:
The binding definition for messaging services consists of configuring the content-types of the messages that are exchanged. The content-type for the response does not need to be the same as for the request; therefore, the response is configured separately (for example, the service could accept an MFL message and return an XML acknowledgment receipt).
Note: |
E-mail, File, FTP, or SFTP transport business services whose type is Messaging Service support one-way messaging only; the Response Message Type should be None. If you select an option other than None, the file, ftp, or sftp protocol will not be available on the Transport Configuration page. |

Request Message Type

Select a message type for the request message:
- None - Select this option if there is no request message (HTTP GET example)
- Binary - Select this option if the content-type of the message is unknown or not important.
- Text - Select this option if the message can be restricted to text.
- MFL - Select this option if the message is a binary document conforming to an MFL definition. Enter the MFL file name (qualified by its path), or click Browse to select a file.
You can configure only one MFL file.
Note: To support multiple MFL files, define the content as binary or text and use the MFL action in the message flow to convert to XML.
- XML - Select this option if the message is an XML document. Enter the XML file name (qualified by its path), or click Browse to select a file.
Optionally provide some type information by declaring (in the element or type field) the XML schema type of the XML document exchanged.
