    : the entire message, including
    rootpart
     and attachments.
  • soapbody
    : the content of the SOAP body from the

  • attachment
    : a MIME attachment within the message. Specify the attachment index.
  • rootpart
    : the content of the
    rootpart
     of a MIME message. If the message isn't MIME, Workday selects the entire message.
  • variable

    MediationContext
    .
Output
output
Specifies where the
unzip
 step directs the output. There are 5 possible values:
  • message
    : the entire message, including
    rootpart
     and attachments. This value creates a new message, effectively removing any attachments.
  • soapbody
    : the content of the SOAP body from the
    rootpart
     of the message.
  • attachment
    : a MIME attachment within the message. Specify the attachment index.
  • rootpart
    : the content of the
    rootpart
     of a MIME message. If the message isn't MIME, Workday selects the entire message. This value preserves any attachments on the original message.
  • variable
    : save the output as a named variable in the
    MediationContext
    .
Format
format
The format of the zipped file. The options are:
  • zip
  • tar
The TAR format supports archiving but not compression. To compress TAR files, use either of these commands:
  • gzip, which replaces the .tar file extension with .tar.gz or .tgz
  • bzip2, which replaces the .tar file extension with .tar.bz2
You can compress and decompress TAR archives produced in the
zip
 step using the
compress
 and
decompress
 steps, respectively.
