When a connector is enabled in your ESB instance, you can access its functionality by adding a reference to it from your ESB configuration (such as in a sequence) and then calling its operations. To see the operations available in a connector, display your list of connectors (on the Main tab of the ESB Management Console, under Connectors click List), and then click the connector name.
For example, if the JIRA connector is enabled in your ESB instance and you want to use it in a sequence, you would add the following entry to your sequence configuration to connect to JIRA:
<jira.config> <username>myname@mycompany.com</username> <password>{wso2:vault-lookup('xxxx.email.login')}</password> <uri>https://xxx:xx/xx</uri> </jira.config>
Then, if you want to get an issue, you can use the JIRA connector's getIssue
operation and pass in the issue ID as follows:
<jira.getIssue [configKey="Ref Local Entry"]> <issueIdOrKey>ESBJAVA-2095</issueIdOrKey> </jira.getIssue>
Using connectors in Developer Studio
If you are using Developer Studio, you can import a connector into your ESB config project (right-click the project, choose Import Cloud Connector, and then navigate to the connector's ZIP file). The operations in the connector are then displayed in the graphical ESB editor, allowing you to drag them to your proxy service, sequence, or other configuration.
For details on using the operations in these default connectors, see ESB Connectors.
