then
	// Get cached SOAP builder or create
	SoapBuilder builder = state.get("soapBuilder");
	if (builder == null) {
		SoapBuilder builder = new SoapBuilder();
		state.set("soapBuilder", builder);
	}

            // For each individual SOAP entry, call:
	builder.append($e.message);
	
	// whenever the transaction is complete, set details to SOAP body
	$tx.setDetails(builder.toString());

	// remove builder from state

end

Monitoring & Analytics - WebSphere JSP

Description

Enhancement of our monitoring of JSPs on WebSphere

Example

Reporting - File Name

Description

Automatic reporting via our SQL feature used to generate a file with a hard-coded name. Now the file name is configurable. In other words, we added new property to SQL Report action config to set template to generate attachment name. If this is left empty, attachment will be set to action name (existing behavior). Within the template you have access to the action config and result set, as well as built-ins from freemarker. Example:

Report ${config.name} - ${.now?string[\"dd_MMM_yyyy\"]} - ${result.rowCount} rows

Results in:

MyReport - 04_MAY_2020 - 1384 rows.csv
