Business objects in events
Business object data is carried within the event in XML format. The Common Base Event format includes an xs:any schema, which encapsulates the business object payload in XML elements.
You specify the level of business object detail that will be captured in service component events. This level of detail affects only the amount of business object code that will be passed to the event; all the other Common Base Event elements (both standard and event-specific) will be published to the event.
The names of the detail levels applicable to service component events differ depending on whether you created a static monitor using IBM Integration Designer or a dynamic monitor on the administrative console, but they correspond as shown in the following table:
Administrative console detail level Common Base Event/Integration Designer detail level Payload information published FINE EMPTY None. FINER DIGEST Payload description only. FINEST FULL All of the payload. The detail level is specified by the PayloadType element, which is part of the event instance data. The actual business object data is included in the event only if the monitor is set to record FULL/FINEST detail.
The business object data itself is included in the Common Base Event under an xsd:any schema. You can see the process server business object payloads with the root element named wbi:event.
If you are publishing the event output to the logger, you will see the output when you view the log files. If the event is published to the CEI server, you can use the Common Base Event browser to view the event. You can then click the wbi:event link to view the business object data.
