Envelope Debatching and XPath Debatching Inside an Orchestration Biztalk Lab

Envelopes can be used with the Xml Disassembler in Biztalk 2004 to break up larger Xml messages into single messages.  Another approach to message debatching is to use xpath in a loop inside an Orchestration.  Both these approaches are covered in this Message Debatching Options Lab for Biztalk 2004. 

 

This lab will take around 40 minutes to complete and is based on Microsoft’s hands-on-labs.

 

Download: Message Debatching Options Hands-on Lab

 

Setup is simple.  Unzip the download to your c:\ drive.  Make sure the root folder named “Microsoft Hands-On-Labs” is located at c:\.  The lab manual is located under \ILL009_Debatching.  The exercises are located in the \Source\Exercises folder.  The full sample solution is located in the \Source\Solution folder.

 

This lab is recommended for beginner and above biztalk users looking to learn more about message debatching in biztalk.

It's annoying how incredibly obscure this thing is (then again, so its most of Biztalk).

What causes the envelope to spring into action? The fact that it is deployed? The name of the nodes?

I think it’s a combination of using the Xml Disassembler, having the Envelope deployed, and getting a match on the message type property. You need all three in order for the envelope to work.

Great Lab.

Doesn't quite work for me though.
I only did the XPath half. I do get 10 files out at the end, but one of them is identical to the input file. Looked through it and can't see the cause, any ideas ?
