TestMap Input Instance (Map File Property)

  • Article

 

Use the TestMap Input Instance property to configure the location of the input instance message file to be used to test the map.

Category

Test Map

Allowed Values

Valid name of a file that contains the instance message that you want to use when testing the map.

Either type the full path name of the file or use the ellipsis (...) button on the right side of the input field to open the Select Input File dialog box.

Default Value

None.

Remarks

Configure this property if you want to test your map by using a custom instance message rather than an instance message generated automatically by BizTalk Mapper. For more information about automatic generation of input instance messages versus providing a custom input instance message, see TestMap Input (Map File Property).

Note

Remember to set the TestMap Input property to XML. Otherwise BizTalk will continue to generate an input instance message rather than using the file you specified.
