Use Case: Partner33 (Sender) send files to AMF via UFA Protocol, we use PGP decrypt, ZIP and Deliver those files to the Partner34 (Receiver) using S3 Protocol via AMF (Agile Messaging Framework).
Sequence Diagram:
Steps:
A. Onboard Partner33 and Partner34 in using AMF
B. Install UFA agent for Partner33.
C. Create Message Type or use the existing one in AMF
D. Onboard Partner33 UFA Upload profile (Customer Initiated Communication Profile (Inbound)).
E. Create PGP Decrypt Action as Action Type
F. Create ZIP Action as Action Type
G. Create Delivery Action or use the predefined one (Deliver as is)
H. Create Workflow Definitions and add Actions (Created in step E, step F and step G) as step1, step2 and step3 respectively.
I. Create Workflow Rule with Sender, Receiver, MessageType and Workflow Definition Name (Created in step H).
J. Onboard Partner34 S3 Profile in AMF (MFT Initiated Communication Profile (Outbound)).
K. Create Communication Rule with Sender, Receiver, Message Type and Comm Profile Name
L. Verify the Message Activity in AMF once the Partner33 uploads the file to AMF via UFA Protocol. If everything was configured correctly, the file will be delivered to Partner34 via S3 protocol.
