GDPR Considerations

From a General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) perspective, note the following considerations:

Product Considerations

End-to-End Monitoring has the following considerations with respect to the various supported products.

webMethods Integration Cloud

Following is the current status of monitoring support in End-To-End Monitoring for HTTP-based Integration Cloud transactions:

Action Supported
Invoke an integration using Play Button or over HTTPS Yes
Invoke REST APIs or SOAP APIs in webMethods Integration Cloud Yes
Invoke any supported application Yes
Invoke an integration using the “Run Now” option No
Invoke an integration using Scheduler No

webMethods API Gateway

Following is the current status of monitoring support in End-To-End Monitoring for HTTP-based webMethods.io API transactions:

Action Supported
Invoke REST API in API Gateway Yes
Invoke SOAP API version 1.2 Yes
Invoke SOAP API version 1.1 Yes

webMethods.io B2B

Following is the current status of monitoring support in End-To-End Monitoring for webMethods.io B2B transactions:

Type Supported Currently Unsupported
Document Submission From webMethods.io B2B User Interface Batch Executions
Channel Submission through REST client Reprocessed transactions
webMethods.io B2B Connector submit in webMethods.io Integration
wm.tn:submit , wm.tn:submitWithAttachments, wm.tn.route:routeBizdoc
Channel Protocols HTTP AS4
AS2 RNIF
SFTP
Document Types EDI
XML
Flatfile
Channel Type Inbound
Outbound
Integration Types webMethods.io Integration
External Call
Cloud Container
Integration execution mode Synchronous
Asynchronous
Reliable

Important:

  • For End-to-End Monitoring to trace the webMethods.io B2B transactions, add the following B2B attribute of type String: e2e:ot-tracer-traceid.



Note:

  • The document IDs of the involved documents are considered as the custom Transaction ID for webMethods.io B2B transaction traces. However for AS2 channel protocol, both document ID and message ID are considered as custom Transaction ID.
  • Custom Transaction ID for B2B node in the transaction is the document ID submitted. However, custom Transaction ID for the whole transaction captures all the document IDs involved in webMethods.io B2B.
  • Transaction name format is now SenderName:ChannelName instead of SenderName(Organization Unit):ChannelName.
  • The following document submission types are traced from webMethods.io B2B only when cloud container tracing is enabled:
    • wm.tn:submit
    • wm.tn:submitWithAttachments
    • wm.tn.route:routeBizdoc

webMethods.io Integration and Flow services

Following is the current status of monitoring support in End-To-End Monitoring for HTTP-based webMethods.io Integration transactions:

Transaction Supported
Workflow execution Yes
Workflow execution through webMethods.io REST API Yes
Outgoing traces from workflow support is only for HTTP and webMethods.io Integration Flow services connectors Yes
Flow execution using Play button or HTTPS Yes
Flow execution using Scheduler Yes
Workflow execution using “Run flow” connector Yes

Connectors

Following is the current status of monitoring support for webMethods.io Integration Flow service connectors and Workflow connectors in End-To-End Monitoring:

On-premise Connectors Yes From webMethods.io Integration release v11.0.3 onwards.
Flat file Connectors Yes From webMethods.io Integration release v11.0.3 onwards.

Note:

  • Support for connector tracing of Flow services functionality is subject to webMethods.io Integration release v10.16.5.
  • Support for connector tracing of Workflows functionality is subject to webMethods.io Integration release v11.0.3.
