Microflow is available for use in two ways.

Embedded Microflow. Users can design a microservice using Microflow and then export it as a jar file to use in other systems. Users can import the jar file to their existing java project and use the Microflow Java APIs to call and execute the microservice.

Runtime Microflow Server. Users can also use Microflow as a standalone server mode by installing the Server Runtime and running Microflow through the Web service. In this case, the Microflow is available as a service, and the user can call and execute the microservice using the REST APIs.

Microflow is one of the components of ONEWEB that is developed for the purpose of facilitating interconnection with other systems. It can be an internal connection between different ONEWEB components or an external connection with external systems. It can connect to external systems via REST or SOAP API.

Synchronous operation is a blocking operation as a process will wait until the operation completes. But an asynchronous operation is non-blocking as it only initiates the operation. An asynchronous operation allows more parallelism. Since the operation do not block the process, it can do some other computation while the operation is under progress.

A process flow is designed more as an asynchronous process and 'the submit' from a process button will initiate the business process, but the form need not wait for the business process to complete. Also, most processes take days to complete and hence it is pointless to wait for a process to complete.

A Microflow can be designed as synchronous process where the system will wait for the data to be returned from a Microflow or as an asynchronous process where the user can continue to work on the screen while the system will compute in the background and update screen with the result. When using microflow, user can use screen blocking feature to make the call a synchronous or an asynchronous operation.

Microflow has many nodes that have been developed to support integration such as

Database Node Microflow can communicate with the database, which may be useful if you want to retrieve some values from the database. It can also be used to insert, update or delete data from the database. This integration can be done through the database node, which supports two types of connection - JNDI and JDBC. It also supports four types of commands -

• Select- to retrieve desired data from the database

• Insert - to insert the desired data into the database

• Update - to update values in the database

• Delete - to delete data from the database. You can define the field and table via SQL Command

Sub Process Node In a large process, one process can have a subroutine or another process within. Of course, there must be complex work, and in some cases, there may be duplicate functions. Instead of drawing the same flow at several points, the user can collapse the flow into a simpler flow by using the Subprocess node.

Web Service Node Web Services is a software system that has been designed to support the exchange of information. Microflow Designer provides a Web Service Node for consuming SOAP and REST services. The developer just needs to configure the specifications of the service and ONEWEB will generate the methods and data structures to call the Service.

SOAP

REST

File Read Node Microflow can read data on file systems using the File Read Node. It supports files like excel, XML, Delimited, and fixed-width files. In the FileRead Node user can also configure actions on success and failures.

Data Mapping is an integral part of system integration as you need to map input and output parameters to transfer data from one component to another. ONEWEB provides a simple UI for mapping parameters between components.

Data Mapping from Smart Form to Microflow ONEWEB provides a simple drag-drop UI to map parameters from the Smart form fields to the process parameters of the Microflow. Users can click on the App Designer Parameter and then drag and drop to the process parameter to map the value while calling the microflow. Similarly, users can click on the response tab and map the output process parameters returned from Microflow to the UI fields on the Smart Form.

Data Mapping within different nodes in Microflow ONEWEB provides a simple mapping parameter screen to map parameters from the process to the Activities within each node.

The data mapping discussed in Section , it is a data-level mapping between inbound and outbound parameters. But this section refers to the data transformation while mapping. Double click on the blue line connecting the parameters to open the formula editor panel to create the data transformation logic.

On the Formula Editor panel, the user can drag different process parameters and mathematical operators, and String functions to create the condition. These String functions are available on the Formula editor only on the mapping screen.

Microflow is designed to be a medium for integrating multiple systems. The built-in tool itself has a number of helper nodes. It also provides a Java node to execute any custom logic needed by the application. Add custom logic to Microflow To add custom logic simply create a microflow and add the java node to it. The developer can implement the custom logic in java and export it as a jar file. Once you have the jar file you can upload it to the microflow java node and specify the class and method to be invoked from a microflow. Users can also map the data from microflow to the java class and back. Please remember to upload any dependent jar files independently to the flow using the upload jar file utility.

The below section explains the steps to configure the Java node

Drag and drop the Java node activity to the diagram panel Choose the Jar file that you want to execute in ‘Jar Name’ or select from an existing list of uploaded jars Click on Get Class Name and choose the custom java class name in the ‘Class Name’ field Select the desired method to be called in ‘Method Name’ Click Open Mapping Parameter to map the parameters to the java method and the data returned from java to the process parameter. Click ‘Done’ to save your java node setting

Process activity is the core of a Process Template Diagram. It consists of all notations that is used to represent any business activity. In Process Designer, Process activity is also called a Node task. The node task panel is divided into 4 main node task groups as described below:

Activity Tasks: This notation is used to perform a specified task according to the functionality as defined below.

Gateway Tasks: Gateway Tasks are used to make decisions to control the Process Path flow. User can specify a condition to determine the path the process needs to follow. The Gateway Tasks help users to fork the process flow into divergent paths.

Event notation: Event notation is suitable for events that are triggered. For example, the incoming message from an external system. They can be used to start or finish a process. There are several event types supported by Process Designer.

Boundary event notation: This notation is used as a listener event on the Activity task notation.

For more details of these groups are explained in table below.

Properties of Task Activity

The first property of every activity node is by default the General Tab as shown in figure below. The General Tab is used to show the generic information of each node task and it is displayed when user double clicks on any node task.

All property settings available inside general tab are described in table below

Once you complete designing the Microflow, you can export it to be used on your local server. There are two ways of exporting Microflow to copy to app server for using it.

• Embedded mode

• Standalone Server mode

The exported format is different for the two modes. Let us see how we can use Microflow in both types.

In this section, we will learn how to create a Microflow from scratch. First user needs to create an application from AppSpace or open an existing application in AppSpace. The user can then create a Microflow inside the Application. Once the Microflow is created and the necessary permissions generated, AppSpace will redirect you to the Microflow Designer to design the flow.

We will show how to create the application and create a flow in the application and also how to simulate and also deploy this microflow to a real environment.

Use the Java Task to call custom java functions.

Purpose

The Java Task is used to call and execute Java code defined by user. The Java node task is needed when user wants to use Java code inside their microflow. To accomplish this user can create the Java method, export the Java class to a Jar file and then upload this Jar file to the Java Node Task for executing Java method during the flow. You can upload any jar file and call a function from that jar file using the Java Task.

Properties

Java Node Configuration panel has 3 tabs to define properties.

General

General Tab contains general information such as title, task id etc.

Business Object

Used to configure and map the Business Object for input and output for the node.

Java Parameter

Use the Sub Flow node to call another microflow.

Purpose

The Sub Flow node is used to call other microflows from within the main flow. If there is a section of the main flow that can stand alone, it is good practice to implement it as a separate microflow. Now you can call this flow from the main flow using the Sub Flow node. This improves clarity and reusability.

Sub Flow Node Configuration Properties

Sub Flow Node Configuration panel has 3 tabs to define properties.

General

General Tab contains general information such as title, task id etc.

Business Object

REST

When REST is selected as the Web Service Type, user must enter information about calling the Rest API on REST panel.

Both SOAP and REST tabs contain an "Open Mapping Parameter" button. Clicking on "Open Mapping parameter" button redirects user to Mapping Parameter screen where user can click on Mapping Parameter Input line or Mapping Parameter Output line to map parameters for this Web Service task.

You can map the input parameter and output parameter of SOAP service using XPath mapping. Please refer below example of sample wsdl.

Now to map the xpath for each input parameter.

For field name "title" you have to create xpath for mapping parameter as follows.

Method 1:

Parameter Name : title

XPath : /Operation_in/book/title

Parameter Type : String

Method 2:

Parameter Name : title

XPath : //book/title

Parameter Type : String

Method 3:

Parameter Name : title

XPath : //title

Parameter Type : String

XPath Syntax expression

Use Timer Events to determine the maximum time allowed for processing a task.

Purpose

Timer events are used to specify the upper time limit for processing a task. It can be used as a start event, intermediate event or boundary event. When a timer attached task goes over time, it allows the flow to perform some action.

For Example, let's say a flow is calling an external web service, which is being monitored by Timer event. If the task is not taken care of or completed as per scheduled, then Timer event can be used to send an email to system admin/ responsible person to check on the service.

Properties

Timer Configuration panel has only one tab to define properties:

Timer

Use exclusive gateways to direct your process flows to one or more paths based on condition.

Purpose

Gateway Nodes are used to branch a process flow based on conditions and is represented with a diamond shaped box.

Exclusive

Exclusive gateway is the type of gateway where the process will follow only the one path where the condition is evaluated to be true. Exclusive gateway is used to create the condition flows in a business process.

Gateway Properties:

Gateway Configuration panel has two tabs to define properties:

General

General Tab contains general information such as title, task id etc.

Gateway

When link paths are created from Exclusive gateways, user must specify the condition on the links coming out of the Gateway Parameter panel.

Use the Database Task to execute database commands.

Purpose

The Database Task is used to execute database commands. Most Microflows rely on some information from database to execute jobs or complete the flows. They may often require to Select, Insert, Update or Delete data from database, and pass such values to other nodes to complete the flow. Microflow Designer provides this functionality using Database Node tasks.

Database Node Configuration Properties:

Database Node Configuration settings panel has 3 tabs to define properties.

General

General Tab contains general information such as title, task id etc.

Business Object

Used to configure and map the Business Object for input and output for the node.

Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is standard application programming interface, which defines how a client may access a database. It is Java based data access technology and used for Java database connectivity. When "JDBC" is selected as "Connection type". User must also enter value for JDBC.

In Database Parameter tab, "Open Mapping Parameter" button is used to map parameters of Database Node task. When click Open Mapping Parameter button, the system will redirect user to Mapping Parameter screen and then user can click Mapping Parameter Input line or Mapping Parameter Output line to mapping parameter for this Database Task.

Use Error Events to handle exceptions or errors in a process by doing some action.

Purpose

Error Events are used to handle the occurrence of errors during the execution of a certain task in the flow. For example, let's say if a Java Task is executed with errors, user can use Error Event to send an error message.

Error Event Configuration Properties:

Error Configuration panel settings has one tab to define properties.

Error

In Error tab, "Add Exception Row" button to add more exceptions, "Delete" button to remove an existing exception. "Open Mapping Parameter" button is used to map parameters of exception node task. When click Open Mapping Parameter button, then the system will redirect user to Mapping Parameter screen and the user can click Mapping Parameter Input line or Mapping Parameter Output line to set mapping parameter for this Error Event Task.

Use the Push Notification task to send message to mobile application.

5. Drag line and connect the nodes 6. Click "Save"

Now you have your first Microflow service ready for execution

Users can use the validate option to see if all the configurations are complete

To create a microflow, the user needs to create an application or open an existing application in AppSpace.

Create an Application on AppSpace. To create an application on AppSpace first log in to AppSpace and click on the Create new app button.

When creating an application, users can create it as a Web Application or a Mobile App. Choose the right platform for your application and enter the details.

Click on Create button. The new application is created for you now. Click on the application icon to open your app. The system will redirect the user to the components page.

On the home page of the application, user can click on Create Flows icon. Alternately, user can create a new Microflow from the Component list screen as well. Click on the 'Add New' option.

On the Create Microflow dialog, enter the flow details. Users can click on Create button to simply create an empty microflow and can choose to start designing later. Alternately, the user can click on the Start Design button to create the flow and to start designing now itself.

If the user chooses to click on Create. The system will create the microflow and display the list of components to the user. Users can later click on the edit icon to start working on the microflow.

If the user clicks on the Start Design button, the system will create a microflow and redirect the user to the Microflow Designer. The system will now display the Create Flow page for creating the Flow Diagram.

If the user is creating a microflow for the first time, the system will redirect user to the defined BO page.

Define the Business Object step. Users can create the input and output parameters of the process.

User can add further details to the BO by clicking on the Add Parameter icon on the BO and add the parameters inside the BO.

The system will now display the Create Flow page for creating the Flow Diagram. Users can now start designing their flow diagram here.

Once the microflow is complete and validated successfully, the user might want to test to see if the flow is working as expected. For this ONEWEB provides the Simulator Utility to simulate the flow.

To simulate a flow, go to the Simulation Test tab. The utility provides the flow diagram for review and an input box with the input BO parameters in JSON format to start the flow. 1. Update the Input BO parameters with the actual value you need to send to test the flow. 2. Click on the Start button.

The system will trigger the flow with the sample values and display the value returned from the microflow in the output box.

If a user updates the flow or the business object on the flow, the user needs to click on the Refresh Cache button to reload the microflow for simulation. Users can click on the Retest button to test the flow with new values.

Step 1: Click “Export Embedded Microflow” under "Choose Export" on the top right of the screen.

Step 2: Enter the name for the file to be saved in “File name” and click “Export”

Your Microflow will be downloaded as a Jar file and you can copy your Microflow to another java project and use it in embedded mode.

When you choose standalone server mode, there is no separate deployment file as the Microflow is activated on the server as a REST Service and you can access it directly through the REST APIs.

Suppose you need to update some data to the database from the page or show some data from another system, you need to integrate Page with Microflow. Assume we need to show data such as exchange rate from the Fixer.io website to be shown dynamically on the Page. For this, we can use the Web Service Node in Microflow (REST or SOAP) to get data from the website and integrate it with Page Designer.

Page can be integrated with other internal and external systems like databases or web services using Microflow to create dynamic web pages on ONEWEB. This section shows you how to call a Microflow Service from Page, and also to display the data returned by the service on the Page.

Page to call Microflow Go to the Page Designer and open the Page that you want to make dynamic.

1. Click on the input field to be passed to Microflow while calling

4. Select the State parameter to connect (Microflow mapping allows only state parameters to be mapped to the microflow input parameter. Hence to pass a parameter to microflow user needs to map the input field to State)

5. Click on the element or container which initiates the call to your microflow (1). In this example, we call the microflow at the click of a button.

• Click on the Add icon under Action

• Select "click" in Event

• Select "Microflow" in the tabs

• Click Refresh to reload the available services.

• Select "Your Project Name" in Microflow project name

• Select "Your process Name" in Microflow process name

8. Map the Page Designer parameter to the Microflow Parameter. Remember to Save mapping by clicking on the Save icon on the mapping screen.

9. User can hook and add JavaScript functions before and after the microflow call.

10. User can also redirect to another page on the success of the call.

Update data on Page from Microflow

1. Select an object on a page which displays the data coming from service

4. Select the field name and click Connect.

5. Click Done on the Connect to Data dialog.

Now the page is successfully integrated with the Microflow and can show the retrieved data on the screen.

In the process flow, the user might need to upload jar files for the Java node or WSDL files for the Webservice node. Instead of uploading the file at the nodes user can upload them to the application using the upload files facility and then select the required file at the nodes. This makes it easier to manage the files or update them without affecting the nodes.

To upload files to an application, go to the upload files menu and upload the required files.

Once the files are uploaded, the user can choose these files from the Java node task or Web services node task and use them in the process flow.

In most enterprise applications to make the UI dynamic, it needs to be integrated with the back-end server to provide updated information as per user interaction. For example, when the user enters the code zip code, the system can return the name of the province, district, and sub-district from the database. In ONEWEB, Microflow provides the interface for integration.

In this section, we will see how to integrate the Smart Form with database to implement dynamicity on UI using the Microflow

Smart Form Integration using Microflow

1. Go to the App Designer 2. Open your Entity 3. Choose the element which should trigger the action and click on the integrate icon . (This icon is available on all the fields and all buttons)

5. ON Microflow Configuration Window select "change()" in Event and click on the Microflow button Select "Your Project Name" in Project Select "Your Flow Name" in Microflow Select "Y" in Async ('Y' for asynchronous call and 'N' for synchronous)

6. Map Entity Parameters to Flow Parameters.

7. Click on the Response tab and map the output parameters from Microflow to the Entity parameters

8. Click OK and Save Entity. You have successfully integrated your Smart Form into the Microflow.

Now when you open the form in Runtime and click on the button, it will call the microflow.

Microflow Designer (MFD) allows the microflow to be exported from one application and imported to another application in order to replicate or reuse the microflow. The microflow can even be imported to a completely different environment as well.

Export To export any microflow, there is the "Export" option under the Project Overview screen as shown in the below figure.

Users will have 3 options - Config, Embedded, MicroService.

• Config - Export the microflow configurations so that it can be imported to another application.

• Embedded - The microflow jar file is used by the Microflow runtime. To copy it to a sit or production environment.

• Microservice - To export it as a service to be hosted in that environment.

The user also has the option to choose the microflow that needs to be exported. Users can choose one or more microflows to be exported.

If the user selects the Config option, there are two types of export operations available under Export Config.

• Export only configuration

• Export configuration along with attached artifacts like jar files (for Java nodes), or wsdl files (Web Service nodes).

The user has the option to choose what to export. Users can choose the Only Config option to export only the microflow configuration or With File option to export the attached jar files and other artifacts.

The exported file is then shown to download and saved to the user's machine. This file contains the entire flow & business objects in JSON format along with the artifacts depending on the option chosen.

Import To import a microflow, there is the Import button on the Project information screen as shown in the below figure.

With the click of this button, the import process dialog is shown. The user has to choose the microflow configuration file by clicking on the "Choose File" button. The system will then show the list of all the available microflows in that file. Users can choose the microflows to be imported to the app. By default, all microflows will be selected.

The user also has the option to import as New or Overwrite existing flow. If the user selects the Overwrite option, then he has to select the microflow to be overwritten as well.

Click on the "Import" button and the microflow will be imported to the application. Once the microflow is imported completely, the user can see all the microflows listed under the Flow Name section as well as in the menu.

With version 4.0.19.10 ONEWEB provides a very powerful feature to create custom activity nodes and use these custom nodes in your microflow or share them with other users. These custom nodes are called extensions. These extensions can be a simple node to query your internal database, or a complicated proprietary node to connect to a blockchain server as well. Users can create the extension once and then use it in every application by installing the extension to the application. Users can also share their extensions with other ONEWEB users. Once the ONEWEB MarketPlace is up, users can even sell their extensions in the MarketPlace.

Once the custom extension is installed on an application in Microflow, users can use the extension node just like any other activity node in Microflow by simply dragging and dropping the node to the canvas and configuring the properties.

From ONEWEB version 4.0.19.12, users can use JSON path syntax to retrieve data from REST services with complex JSON structures. For more information on JSON path syntax please check the site https://support.smartbear.com/alertsite/docs/monitors/api/endpoint/jsonpath.html.

Users can use this syntax on the output mapping screen for REST services under the RestDummyObject.

Users can use online JSON path evaluators to find the JSON expression to be used to retrieve a particular data from the JSON structure. There are multiple evaluators available online. For e.g. https://jsonpath.com/.

The business processes may include database nodes or web service nodes to interact with databases or other services. But these database configurations and web service URLs may be different for different environments. For e.g. the JDBC URL for the development database will be different from the value for the test environment and will again be different for the production database.

So, from version 4.0.0.19 ONEWEB provides an option to configure the environment parameters as variables for the different environments. Users can then use these variables while configuring the flow. This makes it easier to deploy the process to different environments without modifying the process diagram every time.

How to create Environment variables in Process To set up environment parameters for an application, go to the environment setup screen inside the application. Click on the Add Environment icon.

You can create different environments for your app here.

Users can also create multiple profiles for each environment on the profile tab.

Finally, the user can create the environment variables for each parameter

Then users can create them for other environments too

How to use these Environment variables in Process You can use these variables in your node configurations. For e.g., in the database node configuration. For configurations which allow environment variables you can see a check box use environment. Use can select it to use value from environment configuration.

ONEWEB has the option to support multiple languages on its designers. Currently, it supports English, Thai & Japanese. To switch the language on the designer, go to the language switch icon on the bottom left panel on Microflow Designer.

ONEWEB from version 4.0.19.11 supports custom extensions for Process and Microflow. There are some custom extensions provided by ONEWEB along with the platform. One such available extension bundled with ONEWEB is the Excel Reader extension. It can be used to read data from Excel files.

To read data using Excel Reader, the user needs to first install the extension to their application. Please follow the steps as described in section 6.4.16. to install and enable the Excel Reader to your application. Once the extension is installed and enabled, you can use it just like any other node in the diagram palette.

Users can configure the properties for reading the file as shown below. The File Source can be the File System or network, allowing for FTP options like FTP, SFTP & FTPS. Users can enter the source and file details directly or even get the data from the Business Object as shown in the example below.

Users can read data from multiple sheets by mapping the input the data passed to the Reader

The data can be read from a specific column on excel as shown under the specific Field parameter or can read entire rows as configured under the records parameter under each individual sheet.

Use the Push Notification task to send message to mobile application.

Both Android and iOS tabs contain an "Open Mapping Parameter" button. Clicking on the "Open Mapping parameter" button redirects the user to the Mapping Parameter screen where the user can click on the Mapping Parameter Input line or Mapping Parameter Output line to map parameters for this Push Notification task.

Validation Node extension is another extension provided by ONEWEB along with the platform. It can be used to validate data within Business objects.

Similar to the Excel Utility Extensions, to validate BO, the user needs to first install the extension to their application. Please follow the steps as described in section 6.4.16. to install and enable the Validation node to your application. Once the extension is installed and enabled, you can use it just like any other node in the diagram palette.

Users can configure the validation to be enforced in the Extension properties. There are two types of Logical Operators possible - OR & AND. Use the gateway as per the output condition required. It will map all the error messages to output.

Data mapping for the validation node is as follows. All the BO to be validated need to be added under the bo Input as shown below. Users can lookup the BO using the lookup option.

The output message from the Validation node can be mapped as shown below.

Excel Writer extension is another extension provided by ONEWEB along with the platform. It can be used to write data to Excel files.

Similar to the Excel Reader Extension, to write data to Excel Files, the user needs to first install the extension to their application. Please follow the steps as described in section 6.4.16. to install and enable the Excel Writer to your application. Once the extension is installed and enabled, you can use it just like any other node in the diagram palette.

Users can configure the properties for writing the file as shown below. The File Destination can be the File System or network, allowing for FTP options like FTP, SFTP & FTPS. Users can enter the directory and file details directly or even get the data from the Business Object as shown in the Excel Reader. There is also an option to transform data to pre-defined formats while writing.

The data can be written to the specific column on excel as shown under the specific Field parameter or can be written as entire rows by configuring under the records parameter. Users can write multiple sheets of data using one Excel Writer.

JavaScript Node extension is another extension provided by ONEWEB along with the platform. It can be used to execute JavaScript code on the data within Business objects.

Similar to the Excel Utility Extensions, to use JavaScript Node Extension, the user needs to first install the extension to their application. Please follow the steps as described in section 6.4.16. to install and enable the JavaScript node to your application. Once the extension is installed and enabled, you can use it just like any other node in the diagram palette.
