Wait for Adapter Request

Activity

Waits for the receipt of a request from an adapter request-response invocation service. The adapter sends a request using a preconfigured service, and the process definition acts as the implementation of the request. The process sends any required responses back to the adapter’s service by placing the Respond to Adapter Request activity at a later point in the process definition.

Adapter request-response invocation services are configured during adapter configuration, and the activity uses the information in the adapter configuration to fill in most of the fields of this activity. For more information about creating adapter configurations and creating adapter services, see your adapter documentation .

For more information about running the "Wait for" activities in a multi-engine mode, see Scalability With Incoming Events in TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Process Design.

A Wait for Adapter Request activity illustrates a Wait for Adapter Request activity waiting for a request from an adapter request-response invocation service. At a later point in the business process, a Respond to Adapter Request activity sends the response.
