#1022 OIC 24.08 New Features - Event Filtering

The 24.08 release of OIC3 includes support for event filtering - so let's check this out.

Starting point is an event in my project - 

I now create an integration to publish this event - 






















Now to the Subscriber -















I test - 

Now let's add a filter, I'm only interested in orders for the country of Eireann, now, from a Gaelic language perspective, this should be Poblacht na hÉireann, but let's not complicate matters.

We now have the ability to add custom headers to OIC Events - these will be used to implement filtering in the subscriber integrations  


So back to our event definition - the configuration wizard now contains a new screen - here I'll add a new header - countryheader.

Now I go back to the publisher integration and click through the publish action, allowing me to refresh - 

As you can see, the countryheader appears. I then map the country value from the incoming order to this field.

I re-activate the publisher integration and then edit the subscriber - 

I enter the following filter query - 

{"type": "jq_filter","filter-def": ".countryheader==\"Eireann\""}

I invoke the publisher again, this time with an order for Cymru (Wales) - 
No subscriber this time - 

I now invoke the publisher with an order from Eireann - 

I check the Observability screen - and there is our subscriber - 

This was a simple query, let's try something more complicated. I want to subscribe to orders from Eireann where the order status is "open".

I need to add a new custom header in the Event definition - statusheader.






I need to set it's value in the "publisher" map - 

The filter query will be as follows - 

{"type": "jq_filter",  "filter-def": ".countryheader==\"Eireann\" and .statusheader ==\"open\""}

}

Let's publish an order from Eireann with the orderStatus "pending" -

Event is not picked up by the subscriber - 

Now to publishing an "open" order from Eireann - 

Here's the syntax to filter on orders from Eireann that are open and have a value > 50k - 

{"type": "jq_filter", "filter-def": ".countryheader==\"Eireann\" and .statusheader ==\"open\" and .valueheader > 50000"}


Summa Summarum

This is really compelling feature, which has been requested by many customers. 
Now you have it, try it out!
