About: XMLTOHTMLTRANSLATOR activity
In Business Integration Solutions, use the XMLTOHTMLTRANSLATOR activity to convert an XML document into an HTML document.
Usage
Use this activity to create an HTML template that is unique to your company. You can use this template in the notification body as your company branding.
Concept
For external documents, notifications must use the company's house style. Notification message layouts require complex configuration. A data source must be specified per language or a document definition must be configured.
The XML to HTML Translator activity gives you flexibility to create these layouts in several ways:
- Text-Only: In most cases, text-only notifications are sufficient. Open the CK Editor and type the text that should appear in the notification body.
- Edit Source: If you have an HTML source available, copy and paste it directly into the Source option of the CK Editor.
- Import XSLT: You can import and use a custom XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations). To enable this option, enable the Use a Custom Xslt flag after selecting More options in the General tab.
The CK Editor provides a data binding option that establishes a connection between the application and business logic. When settings and notifications are correctly configured, the data reflects changes when made.
You can preview the notification message with sample data and make corrections before publishing the notification.
Select the save button in the CK Editor after making changes.
