> Notify Operation
> Notify is a one way operation that simply sends a document to the trading partner and receives an acknowledgement: it is not capable of receiving a response from the trading partner.
> The operation flow in a Notify operation is shown in Figure 10.
> Figure 10 Notify Operation
> The following process flow occurs with the Notify operation:

> 1. | The Initiator private process sends a message to the Initiator TIBCO BusinessConnect.

> 2. | The Initiator TIBCO BusinessConnect retrieves relevant information and sends the message to the Responder TIBCO BusinessConnect.

> 3. | The Responder TIBCO BusinessConnect immediately sends a transport response (acknowledgment) to the Initiator TIBCO BusinessConnect on the same channel as the Initiator business request.

> 4. | The Responder TIBCO BusinessConnect then forwards the message to the local private process.

> See Responder Inbound Request — BusinessConnect to Private Process. The Responder TIBCO BusinessConnect considers the operation as complete.

> 5. | The Initiator TIBCO BusinessConnect sends an INITIATOR.RESPONSE message to the private process.

> See Initiator Inbound Response — BusinessConnect to Private Process. This message is sent independently from the Responder TIBCO BusinessConnect, which sends a RESPONDER.REQUEST message to the Responder private process.
> Supported Transports for the Notify Operation are: HTTP, HTTPS, HTTPSCA, File, FTP, FTPS, SSHFTP, Email, AS1, and AS2.
