Configuring description properties in the web user interface

Use the web user interface to configure the Long Description and Short Description on your integration nodes, integration servers, and deployed message flows. Alternatively, you can use the IBM® Integration API to configure the Long Description properties.

About this task

The Short Description and Long Description can be viewed in the web user interface or by using IBM Integration API. You can also use the Long Description to add keywords to your message flows.

To configure the Long Description and Short Description on your integration nodes, integration servers, or message flows, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Start the web user interface for your integration node; see Accessing the web user interface. The navigator is displayed on the left side of the pane, showing the servers (integration servers), message flows, and other resources that are owned by your integration node. The properties for the integration node are displayed in the main pane.
  2. Optional: If you want to work with an integration server or message flow, click the object name in the navigator. The properties for the selected object are displayed in the main pane.
  3. Click Edit. The properties that you can edit are displayed, including Short Description and Long Description.
  4. Enter the values for the Long Description, Short Description, or both by using one of the following methods:
    • Double-click in the Value column next to the property that you want to change, and add or edit the value.
    • Click the More icon icon next to each property that you want to change, add, or edit the value, and click OK.

    If you are working with a message flow, you can also add keywords into the Long Description field. For more information, see Message flow version and keywords.
