#1043 - OIC Integration Flow Error Raising the Alarm

Simple requirement here - send me an email as soon as integration NN fails.

Here is my integration - 

I've done the saveOrder Map so as to ensure an error is thrown on the Netsuite invoke.

I now go to the OCI Service Metrics for my OIC instance - 

Go to Failed Messages - click on View query in Metrics Explorer -

We will edit the query to only show errors from the integration - ProcessOrder4Netsuite. 

Now to the Metric Dimensions -

The default entry specifies the OIC instance. Click on Additional Dimensions so we can narrow the query down to just our integration -  

flowCode identifies the integration - 

I execute the integration two more times, throwing 2 more errors -

Looks good - now to creating the alarm - 

I need to add a name - 

Now to the trigger rule - here is the default rules generated, which I need to edit.

Now to the Destination of the Alarm - 

A Topic needs to be defined - 

Click on Create a topic -

Note the various Subscription protocols supported - I select Email.

I click Create topic and subscription and then Save alarm.

I immediately receive an email asking me to confirm my subscription; this I do.

I now run the integration again - 

I check out the Alarm definition - 

The alarm has fired, so I check my email -

10 minutes later I receive an email telling me the alarm has been reset - 

I can only specify one email for the notification topic, so, if I need more, I'd need to use a DL.

Error Notification via a scheduled job

Another approach is to create a scheduled job, which uses the OIC Factory api to check for errors in my integration. 

The api call I use is as follows - https://design.integration.us-phoenix-1.ocp.oraclecloud.com/ic/api/integration/v1/monitoring/errors?integrationInstance=myInstance&q={timewindow: '1h', projectCode: 'AA_OIC_BASICS'}

Here is my project - 

I test the api in Postman and check the data returned -

As you can see, this contains lots of salient info. 

I create a REST connection for the Factory API  and use it in my scheduled integration -
