Hi Shweta
Not all the information is available directly from the adapter module.
Message size
Retrieve the input stream of the payload, convert the stream to bytes and count the bytes length.
Message msg = (Message) inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
XMLPayload payload = msg.getDocument();
InputStream inStr = payload.getInputStream();
// Convert inStream to bytes
int size = bytes.length;
Sender and Receiver interface names
You can only get Sender interface in sender module, and receiver interface in receiver module. You can get the from the getAction() method.
Message msg = (Message) inputModuleData.getPrincipalData();
String interfaceName = msg.getAction().getName();
Operation Mapping name
This is not directly available from the Adapter Framework. One workaround is to access this via the Integration Directory API. With the Interface Determination Service API, you can read the Interface Determination object to get the associated mapping. To do this you have to make a SOAP call to the API.
Message Mapping name
I'm not sure how this can be retrieved as this is only available in ESR.
If the module is on the receiver side, another option is to extract the information during mapping and store it into Dynamic Configuration, then in the receiver module, to extract it from Dynamic Configuration.
