CD --> SFG --> AMF --> S3

Use Case: Partner31 (Sender) send files to SFG via CD protocol, we use GZIP and Deliver those files to the Partner32 (Receiver) using S3 protocol via AMF (Agile Messaging Framework).

Sequence Diagram:

Steps:

A. Onboard Partner31 in SFG via AMF and Partner 32 in AMF.

B. Onboard Partner31 connect direct node in SFG using AMF (Customer Initiated Communication Profile (Inbound)).

C. Create Message Type or use the existing one in AMF.

D. Create Message Mapping with Sender, Receiver and Message Type with a file pattern.

E. Create GZIP Action as Action Type.

F. Create Delivery Action or use the predefined one (Deliver as is).

G. Create Workflow Definitions and add Actions (Created in step E and step F) as step1 and step2 respectively.

H. Create Workflow Rule with Sender, Receiver, Message Type and Workflow Definition name (Created in step G).

I. Onboard Partner32 S3 Profile using AMF (MFT Initiated communication Profile (Outbound))

J. Create Communication Rule with Sender, Receiver, Message Type and Comm Profile Name.

K. Verify the Message Activity in AMF once the Partner31 uploads the file to SFG via CD protocol. If everything was configured correctly, the file will be delivered to Partner32 via S3 protocol.
