I need to retrieve the value set in session variable in flow1 to flow2. The code I've written looks like this :
<flow name="demo1Flow">
<http:listener config-ref="HTTP_Listener_Configuration" path="demo" doc:name="HTTP"/>
<set-session-variable variableName="name" value="balwant" doc:name="Session Variable"/>
<logger message="Inside demo1 #[sessionVars.name]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
<http:request config-ref="HTTP_Request_Configuration" path="/test" method="GET" doc:name="HTTP"/>
</flow>
<flow name="demoFlow">
<http:listener config-ref="HTTP_Listener_Configuration" path="/test" doc:name="HTTP"/>
<logger message="Inside demo flow #[sessionVars['name']]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
</flow>
With the above code I'm not able to get the value from session variable which was set in demo1Flow to demoFlow. The output for this flow I'm getting is :
INFO 2017-03-07 12:55:28,455 [[demo].HTTP_Listener_Configuration.worker.01] org.mule.api.processor.LoggerMessageProcessor: Inside demo1 balwant
INFO 2017-03-07 12:55:28,536 [[demo].HTTP_Listener_Configuration.worker.02] org.mule.api.processor.LoggerMessageProcessor: Inside demo flow null.
As the documentation says that value in Session variable is accessible across the session in different flows, but here that is not happening :(. Not sure what is the reason.
Referring Session Variable Transformer Reference documentation, the Session Variable persist for the entire message lifecycle, regardless of transport barriers, except for the HTTP Connector which doesn’t propagate them.
They are two independent flows which process messages based on different input paths, although you are calling using http requester from flow1,second has its own scope.
For every flow it's scope begins with its inbound.
As there is no relationship between those two flows, you can't access anything from flow1 in the other. If you want that variable you can set as outbound property then it will become inbound property to the second flow. Otherwise you can set as uri parameters.

I am using a Message Enricher to call a web services and return what a part number is for the external data source. I am saving that payload into a Session Variable. I am then using a Lookup Table from within a Datamapper to send the current payloads' part number to be referenced against the external data source (using xpath). I am able to invoke the Lookup and pass the local variable but the payload that was saved into the Session Variable is not being passed through to the Lookup Flow, so my xpath query will not work.
Here is the Session Variable and Datamapper
<flow>
<enricher target="#[sessionVars['SesVar']]" doc:name="Message Enricher">
<flow-ref name="query-line-details-erpFlow" doc:name="query-line-details-erpFlow"/>
</enricher>
<logger message="Session Var: #[sessionVars['SesVar']]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
<data-mapper:transform config-ref="XML_To_XML" doc:name="XML To XML"/>
</flow>
Here is the Lookup Table logic
output.ExternalPart = (isnull(lookup(LookUpPart).get([input.LocalPart])) ? null : lookup(LookUpPart).get([input.LocalPart]).ExternalPart);
Finally here is the second flow where the Session Var should be accessed from
<flow>
<logger message="Spit out the var #[sessionVars.SesVar]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
</flow>
From what research I have done, the Session Variable is not passing a Transport Barrier so it should be able to be referenced from this scope. I have also tried with flowVars also.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to upload many records to salesforce via mule using (create bulk) operation.
I created the flow as below
<flow name="bulk_salesFlow1" doc:name="bulk_salesFlow1">
<http:inbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="request-response" host="localhost" port="8081" doc:name="HTTP"/>
<sfdc:create-bulk config-ref="Salesforce12" type="BulkMule__c" doc:name="Salesforce">
<sfdc:objects>
<sfdc:object>
<sfdc:inner-object key="Component__c">Transformer</sfdc:inner-object>
<sfdc:inner-object key="Use__c">Transforms the payload</sfdc:inner-object>
</sfdc:object>
<sfdc:object>
<sfdc:inner-object key="Use__c">Iterator</sfdc:inner-object>
<sfdc:inner-object key="Component__c">ForEach</sfdc:inner-object>
</sfdc:object>
</sfdc:objects>
</sfdc:create-bulk>
<logger message="#[payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
</flow>
I am getting error "Element: Object is not allowed to be repeated". I would like to know if I'm trying in the right way, if so what is wrong in the above flow.
Thank you in advance
I think this is just a problem with Mule Studio, and you should be able to run your flow if you just ignore the warnings.
If the warnings bother you, you can always use <sfdc:objects ref="#[something]"/> with a list of maps with field names corresponding to your SF object.
I have a flow in which I have inserted a flow reference component. The reference component flow will obviously send a message to my first flow with a result "xxx". I want this result to be put in the header of the message sent.
<flow name="CreateAccountFlow1" doc:name="CreateAccountFlow1">
<http:inbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="request-response" host="localhost" port="8081" doc:name="HTTP" path="bank"/>
<cxf:jaxws-service doc:name="SOAP" serviceClass="com.essai2.AccountService"/>
<component class="com.essai2.AccountRequest" doc:name="Java"/>
<flow-ref name="Projet2Flow1" doc:name="Flow Reference"/>
<component class="com.essai2.AccountResponse" doc:name="Java"/>
<logger level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
</flow>
Flow-references do not "send messages" per se, so it's hard to understand what you're after. It seems you want the result of the execution of the flow-ref to be placed in a message property. If that's the case, you can do:
<set-variable variableName="result" value="#[message.payload]" />
This assumes that the result of the flow-ref is in the message payload and that having the result property in the invocation scope (aka flow variable) is OK for you. With the little information you provided, that's the most I can tell you.
I have a flow something like this
A 'Database inbound endpoint' which polls(for every 5 mins) to mySQL Database-Server and get result-set by a select-query (automatically this becomes the current payload i.e #[message.payload])
'For each' component and a 'Logger' component in it using a expression as #[message.payload]
Now flow has one more 'Database-out-bound-endpoint' component which executes another select-query and obtains result-set.
'For each' component with a 'Logger' component in it using a expression as #[message.payload]
Note: in the loggers result-set of first DB is printing. I mean second logger is also showing result-set of first query itself.Because the result-set is storing as payload
so, my questions are
what is the MEL to read the result-set of second database-query in the above scenario.
is there any another way to read result-set in the flow
Here is the configuration XML
<jdbc-ee:connector name="oracle_database" dataSource-ref="Oracle_Data_Source" validateConnections="true" queryTimeout="-1" pollingFrequency="0" doc:name="Database"/>
<flow name="testFileSaveFlow3" doc:name="testFileSaveFlow3">
<poll frequency="1000" doc:name="Poll">
<jdbc-ee:outbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="one-way" queryKey="selectTable1" queryTimeout="-1" connector-ref="oracle_database" doc:name="get data from table 1">
<jdbc-ee:query key="selectTable1" value="SELECT * FROM TABLE1"/>
</jdbc-ee:outbound-endpoint>
</poll>
<foreach doc:name="For Each">
<logger message="#[message.payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="prints result-set of table1"/>
</foreach>
<jdbc-ee:outbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="one-way" queryKey="selectTable2" queryTimeout="-1" connector-ref="oracle_database" doc:name="get data from table 2">
<jdbc-ee:query key="selectTable2" value="SELECT * FROM TABLE2"/>
</jdbc-ee:outbound-endpoint>
<foreach doc:name="For Each">
<logger message="#[message.payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="prints result-set of table2"/>
</foreach>
</flow>
thanks in advance.
This is not the issue with the MEL. It is the issue with your flow logic.
The second result set is not available in the message.
The JDBC Outbound Endpoint is one-way. So Mule flow will not wait for the reply (result set) from the second JDBC (outbound ) in the middle of the flow. So the second time also it is printing the first result set.
Type 1:
Try making your JBDC outbound request-response instead of one-way.
Type 2:
Try Mule Enricher to call the JDBC outbound to call the DB and store the result set into a varaible and try looping the varaible.
Hope this helps.
I've a soap service flow which gets inbound request through <cxf:proxy-service>. I have a set payload right after it to get payload as String.
Here is my flow:
<flow name="soapService">
<http:inbound-endpoint address="${service.address}" exchange-pattern="request-response">
<cxf:proxy-service wsdlLocation="classpath:service.wsdl" namespace="http://pennmutual.com/services/mvi" service="MVIService" enableMuleSoapHeaders="false"/>
</http:inbound-endpoint>
<set-payload value="#[message.payloadAs(java.lang.String)]"/>
.
.
.
</flow>
<set-payload value="#[message.payloadAs(java.lang.String)]"/> works but if I replace it with <object-to-string-transformer>, it doesn't work.
How are these 2 inherently different?
UPDATE:
On replacing <set-payload value="#[message.payloadAs(java.lang.String)]"/> with <object-to-string-transformer> in my above flow, #[payload] gives com.ctc.wstx.sr.ValidatingStreamReader#429eb61a instead of the atcual XML
message.payloadAs(java.lang.String) relies on Mule's auto-transformation framework: I supposed it picks <xml:dom-to-xml-transformer> instead of <object-to-string-transformer> as the most appropriate transformer.
