Advanced Properties

You can configure advanced properties to define fault handling, tracing, and Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support for a process.

You can configure the following advanced properties:

Suspend on Fault

By default, Process Server terminates a process when an uncaught fault occurs. You can configure Process Designer to suspend individual processes on uncaught faults.

If you select the

Suspend on Fault

option, Process Server suspends the process when an uncaught fault occurs. If you do not select the

Suspend on Fault

option, Process Server terminates the process if a fault occurs and the process does not explicitly handle the fault.

If the process is in the suspended state, review and identify error conditions. Then, you can then retry or complete the activity. For example, you can catch error conditions during employee or customer onboarding. After you resolve all the errors, the process moves out of the suspended state and continues from the faulted step.

If you select the

Suspend on Fault

option, Process Designer uses full persistence.

These process-specific properties work in conjunction with other exception management settings that you specify in the

Application Integration Console

For more information about managing and correcting faults, see

Monitor

Tracing Level

You can configure one of the following tracing levels to determine the type of run-time logging for a process:

None

Terse

Normal

Verbose

The tracing level that you configure in Process Designer maps to the persistence level and logging level in Process Developer as listed in the following table:

Tracing Level	Persistence Level	Logging Level
None	Brief	None
Terse	Brief	Fault
Normal	Brief	Execution with Service Data
Verbose	Final	Execution with Data

Persistence Level: Regardless of the tracing level that you configure, Process Server uses full persistence in the following situations:

When you select the
Suspend on Uncaught Fault
option
When a process includes a timer such as a Wait step, a message event, or a receive event
When one process invokes another process to provide subprocess coordination.

For more information about different persistence levels, see
Monitor
.
Logging Level: The Process Server logging level might be lower than the logging level that you set for an individual process. Regardless of the logging level that you set at the process level, the logging will not exceed the maximum process logging level specified for Process Server. The tracing level table illustrates the mappings between the logging level and the persistence level.

For more information about different logging levels, see the

Administrator

online help.

Automatic reset of tracing levels

In a process that is configured to run on the Cloud Server, if you set the tracing level to

Verbose

Normal

, the tracing level will be reset to

Fault

by the server, if necessary. This automatic reset feature helps in reducing the process execution time caused by the run-time logging.

Enable CORS

By default, API consumers can invoke a process from the domain that is part of the service URL. API consumers can use the GET, POST, PATCH, PUT, and DELETE verbs to invoke a process.

Select the

Enable CORS

option to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support for a process. You can also specify the allowed domains and allowed verbs for CORS support.

In the

For Domains

field, specify additional allowed domains from which API consumers can invoke the process. Enter the wildcard character (

) to enable CORS for all domains. Enter a comma-separated list of domains to enable CORS for specific domains. For example, enter the following phrase to enable CORS for the abc.domain.com and xyz.domain.com domains:

abc.domain.com,xyz.domain.com

If you enable CORS but leave the

For Domains

field blank, you can invoke the process only from the domain that is part of the service URL.

In the

For Verbs

field, specify the allowed verbs that API consumers can use to invoke a process from the domains that you specified in the

For Domains

field. Enter a comma-separated list of verbs to enable CORS for specific verbs. For example, enter the following phrase to enable CORS for the POST, PUT, and GET verbs:

POST,PUT,GET

Default is all verbs.

API consumers can invoke the process with all verbs from the domain that is part of the service URL.
