Example business transaction definition

The recommended method for modifying business transaction definitions is by using the web user interface. However, you can also edit them directly by using a text editor. If you create a business transaction definition that contains flows on one integration node but then move to a different integration node, you must edit the business transaction definition file directly to reflect this change.

The following example shows the type of information that might be contained in a business transaction definition:

<businessTransaction type="businessTransaction" description="Here is a BT" name="BT2" uri="/apiv1/business/businesstransactions/BT2" internal="true">
      <businessEvents>
               <endBusinessEvents
                           eventSourceAddress="jmsinput.transaction.Rollback"
                           eventUri="/apiv1/monitoring/events/default.IN-OUT.INOUT.jmsinput.transaction.Rollback"
                           flowUri="/apiv1/executiongroups/default/applications/IN-OUT/messageflows/INOUT"
                           nodeName="jmsinput"
                           hasChildren="false"
                           internal="true"/>
