Creating an application based on an existing message set

Create a new application that is based on an existing message set.

Before you start:

You must have created a message set by following the instructions in Message Sets: Creating a message set.

To create a new application, complete the following steps.

  1. Click File > New > Other, or right-click anywhere in the Application Development view and click New > Other. The New Project wizard opens.
  2. Expand Integration Bus - Message Set Development.
  3. Click Start from existing message set, then click Next. The Start from existing message set wizard can also be found in the Project section toolbar. Click Quick Starts and select the Start from existing message set wizard.
  4. Set up the basic resources that are required to develop an application from an existing message set, then click Next.
    • If the message set that you want to use is in a compressed (.zip) file, select Import a message set from a .zip file, and either type the location of the message set in the .zip file and Compressed message set fields, or click Browse and select, and open, the .zip file from the list that is displayed. Then select the required message set.

      If the .zip file that you specify does not contain a message set, you receive a message. You can then type a different location for the message set in the .zip file field. Otherwise, click Cancel.

    • If the message set that you want to use is not in a compressed file, click Create a new message set by copying an existing message set and type into the Message set to copy field the name of the message set file that you want to copy.

      A list is displayed of the message set names from which you can choose. Message sets are filtered to show resources in the active working set only.

  5. Enter the names of the projects, the message flow, the message set, and the working set that contains the two new projects. Default names of the integration project, the message flow, and the working set are already supplied, but you can replace these names. However, if the message set is copied from a .zip file that is a project interchange file, you cannot edit the names of the message set project and the message set; the names are imported from the .zip file.
  6. Click Finish.

    The new message set project, message set, integration project, and message flow are created. A new working set is also created, if required. The new projects are displayed in the specified working set. The contents of the message set project and the integration project are displayed in the Application Development view. The message flow is opened in the message flow editor.

The next step is to develop the message flow. For more information about how to start, see Designing a message flow.
