Refresh Adapter Service Button
All activities in the ActiveEnterprise Adapter palette can use preconfigured adapter services. These adapter service configurations can change after an adapter service is specified in the configuration of an ActiveEnterprise Adapter palette activity. Therefore, the configured adapter service may become inconsistent with your process definition.
The Refresh Adapter Service button is available on most activities in the ActiveEnterprise Adapter palette. This button allows you to synchronize your activities with the adapter service specified in the activity. Any changes that have occurred to the adapter service are reflected in the activity after the refresh completes.
For example, an adapter service may change the schema it uses for incoming or outgoing messages. When this schema change occurs, any activity using that adapter service may no longer have the correct input and output schemas. Clicking the Refresh Adapter Service button changes the activity to use the current configuration of the adapter service. This invalidate input mappings, and you may need to use the Mapper Check and Repair button on the Input tab to correct the activity input schemas.
