This documentation provides a detailed usage example for the ID Linking component in AVA integration platform. The ID Linking component allows you to store and retrieve IDs associated with data objects in a reliable and efficient manner.
The use case scenario involves a Webhook real-time flow where data is received and stored by the Maester component. After a certain period, another real-time flow is triggered, and based on a specific ID, the stored data needs to be retrieved. The ID Linking component plays a crucial role in storing and managing these IDs.
In the first flow, data is received via the Webhook component, which contains information about an order for calculating product costs. The Maester component stores this data and associates it with a dynamically generated Maester Object ID. The ID Linking component is then used to store this ID for future retrieval.
The flow consists of the following steps:
The Webhook component receives the order data.
{
"Order": "0406654608",
"ProductID": 858383,
"City": "Berlin",
"Address": "Friedrichsruher Str. 37",
"Price": 34.45,
"Quantity": 30
}
The Maester component stores the received data using the dynamically generated Maester Object ID.
Sample example of Maester component data:
{
"data": {
"body": {
"Order": "0406654608",
"ProductID": 858383,
"City": "Berlin",
"Address": "Friedrichsruher Str. 37",
"Price": 34.45,
"Quantity": 30
}
},
"maesterObjectId": "bf485bcd-e0db-4f2d-a805-e5084a4cf26c",
"metaHeaders": [],
"searchHeaders": []
}
The ID Linking component stores the Maester Object ID, linking it to the order value from the Webhook data.
{
"result": {
"systemAId": "0406654608",
"systemBId": "bf485bcd-e0db-4f2d-a805-e5084a4cf26c"
}
}
The Jsonata component calculates the sum of the order, which can be sent to a CRM or database.
JSONata expression:
{
"sum, €": $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Price * $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Quantity
}
In the second flow, data is received via the Webhook component, which contains information about the order description for calculating product dimensions. The ID Linking component retrieves the Maester Object ID associated with the order value from the previous flow. The Maester component then retrieves the stored data using the obtained ID. Finally, the Transformation component calculates the dimensions of the order.
The flow consists of the following steps:
The Webhook component receives the order description data.
{
"Order": "0406654608",
"Description": {
"Width": 300,
"Height": 200,
"Depth": 210,
"Weight": 0.75
}
}
The ID Linking component retrieves the Maester Object ID associated with the order value from the Webhook data. It waits for the object to exist before triggering the Webhook.
Sample example of ID Linking component with the received Maester Object ID:
The Maester component receives the stored data using the retrieved Maester Object ID.
The Jsonata component calculates the dimensions of the order.
JSONata expression:
{
"Weight, kg": data.body.Quantity * $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Description.Weight,
"Volume, m³": 0.001 * $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Description.Width * $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Description.Height * $getPassthrough()."step_1".body.Description.Depth
}
The Maester component deletes the stored object to optimize storage.
The ID Linking component deletes the linked object for the Maester Object ID associated with the order value.
