Using the Adapter in iWay Integration Tools Designer

How to:

You can make an adapter available to a process flow created in iWay Integration Tools (iIT) Designer, a GUI-based tool, used to build stateless process flows that execute within iWay Service Manager (iSM). The adapter can be incorporated as a node, called an Adapter object, in an iWay process flow, allowing you to integrate it easily into a business process solution.

Before you begin, ensure that you have created a project and created a process for that project. You can create a project by right-clicking the Processes folder in your project and selecting New Process from the context menu. For more information, see the iWay Integration Tools (iIT) Designer User’s Guide.
