BRE

An activity that accesses BizTalk Rules Engine and its policies which are registered in the AgilePoint Envision. User can select the appropriate BizTalk Rules Engine and its specific policies using the BRE shape.

 

NOTE: This AgileShape is a specialized sub-type of the AgilePart AgileShape. Refer to the documentation for the AgilePart AgileShape for additional information about the properties and behavior that this sub-type inherits from the AgilePart AgileShape.

 

Design-Time Properties

NOTE: Since this AgileShape is a specialized sub-type of the AgilePart AgileShape, all of the standard properties supported by the AgilePart AgileShape are also supported by this AgileShape. Since they are already documented elsewhere, the standard AgilePart properties are not documented in this section. Refer to the documentation for the AgilePart AgileShape for information about the standard AgilePart properties. Additional design-time properties (other than the standard AgilePart properties) that are specific to this AgileShape are documented below.

 

Policy

Specifies the name of the Business Rule Policy associated with this AgileShape.

 

Version

Specifies the version of the Business Rule Policy (see Policy) associated with this AgileShape.

 

Configure

This property allows the process modeler to configure which BizTalk Business Rule Policy should be invoked at runtime. It also allows the process modeler to configure the way in which the policy should be invoked (e.g. which custom process attributes should be associated with the policy’s input and output).

 

NOTE: Changes made to this property’s configuration may also update the values of the Policy, Version, Input, and/or Output properties.
