Hi,

With adapter metadata you can define configuration data needed for a certain type of adapter at design time. Adapter metadata define the part of a communication channel that is specific to the adapter type.

Hi, Jena:

when we create adapter, there are always many data need to be filled out.

e.g. Adapter Type, Mode, Transport Protocol Message Protocol, etc...

With Adapter Meta data maintained, when we create adapter, all the data can be automatically populated, saving time and avoid errors.

Hi jena,

The functions for creating and editing adapter metadata are intended for parties developing new adapters. They are not intended for general use.

You can export adapter metadata as an XML file and import it into the Integration Directory. In this way you can provide the configuration with new adapter types.

Thanks
