OIC –> Updating Product Inventory in Shopify by Niall Commiskey

This is a typical use case – I have a eCommerce site that sells the product, I have an ERP that manages the sales lifecycle. In this case I am looking at Netsuite as the ERP and Shopify as the eCommerce site, but I assume one can extrapolate for other ERP apps. Firstly, a big thank you to my colleague Shantala S. for her support here! Now let’s begin by looking at the Product inventory in Shopify – Note from the inventory history, I can see the default location – I have partially obfuscated it but you still see the street number, 168. Ergo, we have 4 of these Leica cases in stock at the default location. As you can see, I can have more than 1 location – Read the complete article here.

Using Pagination with the OIC Shopify adapter by Niall Commiskey

Introduction

Starting point is the OIC Shopify adapter doc here Quotes from the doc in italics.
In this simple example I will paginate thru my product list – I have ca. 600 products. The number of products returned per page by Shopify can range from 50 to 250. I will set this value in the Shopify invoke mapping. The OIC integration will use the Shopify Adapter to retrieve all products. The structure returned will have the following format. the page_info value is a link to the next page of results.
So the processing logic is very simple – process all pages! This I will do in a WHILE loop – condition is – while there are still more pages available.

Implementing Shopify Pagination in OIC

I will use a scheduled orchestration – first step in that orchestration is to
Assign the following variables – Read the complete article here.

PeopleSoft Integration using Oracle Integration – Part 2 by Prakash Masand & Jin Park

Now we’re ready to create connections and integration in Oracle Integration. Oracle Integration is capable of hybrid integrations. Therefore, you can use Oracle Integration for SaaS integration scenarios such as SaaS and SaaS or SaaS and on-premises. You may need to set up a virtual private network (VPN) between your data centre and Oracle Integration using VPNaaS (VPN as a Service from Oracle) or install Oracle Integration connectivity agent inside your organisation network. It really depends upon the network / security policy of your organisation.

For PeopleSoft, it’s normally located behind corporate firewall. Therefore, make sure you’ve got VPN working or connectivity agent installed. Make sure that you’ve got a successful web service call from public internet using the SOAP / REAT API test client such as Soap UI / Postman. That saves lots of time debugging connectivity issues later. Don’t forget to enable web service request logging. PeopleSoft provides excellent internal tools to monitor web service request which I will explain in the next section. Read the complete article here.

User Friendly Names in Mapper by Ishruthilaya Malarvizhi

In this blog, we will look at a new integration feature, User Friendly Names in the Mapper UI and see how the Mapper UI has changed with the introduction of this feature. The new feature will become available shortly. The Source and Target tree elements displayed in the Mapper UI are based on the application schemas. Many application schemas define their interfaces with extremely cryptic technical names that are not easy to correlate to the user friendly display names you would see in the end point application’s UI.
This feature provides the option to show display label instead of the technical name directly in the trees and expression builder.

The feature is supported for all types of integration. Currently the below application adapters are supported with the user friendly names generation when configuring the trigger/invoke:

• Oracle HCM Cloud
• Oracle Engagement Cloud
• Oracle ERP Cloud
• REST
• Salesforce

Convert Basic Routing style Integration to Orchestration style by Renukaradhya Dakshinamurthy

Convert Integrations Style from Basic Routing to App Driven Orchestration.

The Basic Routing Integrations are deprecated now and currently, there is no way to convert a Basic Routing Integration to Orchestration. With this new feature, the user will be able to do the conversion from Basic Routing to App Driven Orchestration as the latter has more flexibility. The convert can be done with the help of "convert" action provided in the actions menu which is explained in detail in the below sections.

Prerequisites:

The minimum Oracle Integration version required for the feature is “20.36330”.

What happens during the conversion of Basic Routing style to Orchestration

During the conversion of Basic routing to Orchestration, the process goes through each and every entity of the ProjectModel( or flow) of Basic Routing and does a conversion to the corresponding entity of Orchestration style. The below table gives a brief mapping of the entities. Read the complete article here.

Enhanced Integration with your Business Partners using OIC AS2 Adapter by Michael Meiner

Introduction to B2B Integration using AS2

What is B2B integration? Business-to-business (B2B) integration is the automation of business processes and communication between two or more organizations. It allows them to trade more effectively with their customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners by automating key business processes using B2B based data exchange including EDI. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a standard means of exchanging data between companies so that they can transact business electronically.

As part of the B2B Data exchange customers and their partners mutually agree on a:

· Document format like X12, UN/EDIFACT

· Transport protocol like AS2, sFTP

AS2 is a key transport protocol that is very popular worldwide used for B2B data exchange. It is a specification for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between organizations using the internet. AS2 uses Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME), which secures data with authentication, nonrepudiation and encryption. The transportation protocol for this specification is HTTP and HTTPS for real-time communication. S/MIME secures data with authentication, message integrity and nonrepudiation.
