Configuring the Fault Transformation

If the web service operation returns faults or if you create a Fault transformation for a generic fault, configure each Fault transformation. Define input ports and map data from the input ports to nodes in the operation fault.

Select the Fault transformation in the editor.

Click

Fault mapping

The

Operation fault

area shows the response or fault message hierarchy. Define the input ports in the

Ports

Manually add a group	Click the arrow next to the New button and then click New Group .
Select Map first level hierarchy	Select Map first level hierarchy . The Developer tool maps nodes in the first level of the operation fault to input ports and groups. The Developer tool also create the input ports and groups that it requires to map the data.

To map input ports as a composite key, use one of the following methods:

Option	Description
