Document

A Document is a set of data that goes through a process. Can be a single record, group of records, and EDI transaction or an entire file.

In order to enable 'listening' on a specific URI, you need to configure the Atom's Shared Web Server Settings. Access to these settings is found within:

Acct>>Setup>>Features Deploy>>Attachments Manage>>Process Reporting (Manage>>Atom Management)

You can retrieve cached data in which of the following shapes? (Select all that apply) 1. Set Properties 2. Map 3. Data Process 4. Load from Cache

All of the above 2,3,&4 (1,2, and 4) 2&4

Which of the Following is not an advantage of using the Try/Catch shape?

Allows you to catch errors on specific path/branches Prevents process-level failures in the event that a document fails so you can act upon in later in your Process flow (Automatically notifies the users when errors are caught.) Allow you to design advanced logging and processing for failed documents.

Execution

An execution is the result of running a process.

Atom

Atoms are lightweight run-time engines containing process configuration information which actually do the work

Last Successful Run Date

Boomi stored field

Component

Components are reusable and include APIs, certificates, connections, connector operations, cross-reference tables, document caches, maps, map functions, processes, process properties, process routes, profiles, queues, and trading partners.

Connector

Connectors get data into and send data out of processes. Abstract technical details of communicating with various applications, data sources and communication protocols.

When setting up Extensions, which of the following represents the basic 3-steps process?

Deploy Process to Environment, Configure Environment Extensions, Enable Extensions and Define Extensible Components within Process Config. Enviro.Extensions, Enable Extensions and Def. ExtensibleComponents w/n Process [1.)Enable extensions and Define Extensible Components within Process, 2.) Deploy process to Environment(s), 3.)Configure Environment Extensions] Enable Extensions and Define Extensible Components w/n Process, Config. Enviro. Extensions, Deploy Process to Enviro.

From where can you retrieve the error message in the "Catch" path for a document exception caught by a Try/Catch shape?

Dynamic Process Prop. Dynamic Doc. Prop. Source Profile Element Value A base Document Property

TRUE/FALSE: An Integration contains a group of Decision shapes with inputs from SQL statements. The logic in the Decision Shape can be redesigned so that a single Business Rules shape can be used in their place.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: Document Properties are created via a database connector.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: Dynamic Process Properties can be set in a parent process and used within a Process Call (Child Process), but a Dynamic Document Property cannot be set in a parent process and used within a child process.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: If a default value is set on a destination profile element, it will always override the source profile element mapped to it.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: There can be multiple direct mappings from different source fields to a single destination fields.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: To place your scheduled process in production, you must deploy the process after rescheduling it.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: When building a Start Shape FTP Connector, both the Get and Send Actions are available.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: When testing a web service process, you can leverage Test Mode to review data and process results.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: When using the Create Component pane to create a new process, the Start Sahpe Dialoge appears. The Start Shape must be a Connector type.

False.

TRUE/FALSE: You can schedule a deployed process to run every 30 seconds?

False.

Conditions within a Business Rule reference inputs values. These inputs can derive from all of the following except:

Functions Profile Field Static Values (Document Logs)

Map

Maps allow data to be transformed from one format to another. Specifically, from one Profile to another

What is the primary reason for using a Molecule?

Mid-Execution Failover License Court Concerns Increased Execution Performance (High Availability.)

A user adds a custom field to a Salesforce Object which Boomi has already integrated into a MySQL database. The user wants to map this new field to the database. What is the best way to update the Salesforce Operation to map the custom field?

Open the Salesforce object xml response profile and add the new custom field. Add a new operation filter defining custom field in the SOQL 'where' clause (Use the Import Wizard to connect to the Salesforce account and refresh the field set) Identify a Salesforce record having the custom field populated and pull it in via Test Mode to refresh the field set.

Shape

Process Shapes are the steps linked together to form the business logic for a process.

Process

Processes represent a single type of data to integrate between two or more systems. They are comprised of a series of steps (UI shapes) which specify the business logic and transformation requirements.

Profile

Profiles define the structure or layout of the data to be processed. They are used when reading from or writing to a given format. Several Type are available: Database, EDI, Flat File, XML, and JSON.

What environment classification do you need to have to use test licenses?

QA (Development.) Production Test

Which shape provides a way for a process to track changes made to a document and send the results down a particular path?

Return Documents Data Process (Find Changes) Process Call

Route

Sends documents through matched criteria.

Which shape is used to get documents from a document cache to be used in a process or sub process?

Store Doc. Cache Data Process Add to Cache (Load from Cache)

Initial Load

The modified date in source system = the first successful run date in target system.

Delta Load

The modified date on source system is greater than the last successful run date on target system.

TRUE/FALSE: A Business Rule's condition uses a profile input consisting of a repeating element. If one of those elements fails the Business Rule, the entire Document is rejected.

True.

TRUE/FALSE: Caching data improves process performance compared to using a Connector Call.

True.

TRUE/FALSE: It is a best practice with process extensions to set the default connection to use production logins

True.

TRUE/FALSE: Similar to a Process Property, you can persist a Dynamic Document Property value and 'remember' its value for future process executions.

True.

TRUE/FALSE: The Return Documents shape waits for all documents to process down all paths before executing (returning documents)

Branch

Used when you have several actions that you want to execute in a sequence.

Dynamic Process Property

single, on the fly property that you create. To retrieve, you must remember its name and type into field, function, or script.

TRUE/FALSE: When Invoking a web service deployed to the Atom Cloud , where the username and token are embedded in the URI string, They must be Base64 encoded.

true.
