How to use expression filter
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes93 views
The document discusses using expression filters in Mule applications. It provides an example Mule configuration file that uses an expression filter to check the value of a session variable and route the message to a second flow if the value is not equal to "mule". The output shows the message being logged in both flows, demonstrating that the expression filter passed the message to the second flow since the session variable value was "mule studio" rather than just "mule".

- 6. • Flow of execution: 1. URL to trigger the service from browser http://localhost:8089/expressionfilter 2. session property is created using message property component In flow1 3. Service displays session properties in flow1 4. VM component in flow1 will call flow2 if the value of the session property is other then mule. 5. In the POC the session property value is “mule studio” so flow1 calls flow2 and displays session property value in flow2
