🚀 Unlock Advanced IFS Integrations: Overcoming Limitations with Java Transformer Power
Standard IFS integrations often cannot handle complex requirements like JWT conversion, PEP decryption, or specific XML-to-JSON formatting. Vertosync utilizes custom Java Transformers to manage these advanced data manipulations seamlessly within IFS Cloud.
As the pace of digital transformation accelerates, integrating IFS Cloud with third-party systems often runs into limitations where the standard tools fall short. Vertosync specializes in providing Integration Solutions and Custom Development to bridge these gaps, ensuring seamless data flow between applications.
When faced with complex integration requirements that are not supported by IFS standards, our solution lies in leveraging the Superpower Java Transformers.
The Advanced Integration Challenge
Integrating enterprise applications like ERP systems requires overcoming "information silos" where different software cannot easily communicate or share data. The Java Transformer acts as a flexible component within your integration framework, allowing for complex data manipulation outside of standard IFS capabilities.
This capability is essential for managing intricate requirements such as:
• Conversion of JWT (JSON Web Tokens).
• Handling specific data formats, such as converting data from XML to JSON.
• Executing advanced processes like PEP decryption.
• Managing data format and transformation between application-specific formats.
Technical Deep Dive: JWT Decryption Example
We recently deployed a solution fully supported by IFS Cloud that demonstrates how Java Transformers handle advanced security protocols. For instance, when receiving a JWT response from an external system, you often need to quickly convert it to a different format, such as Base64.
This process is critical when you need to store complex external data in a simplified format, such as storing a JWT response in Base64 or image format within IFS. (We also cover how to convert Base64 back to blob format in other specialized blogs, supporting attachment exchange through REST API in IFS ERP).
Here is the quick workflow for creating this powerful solution:
1. Open Developer Studio and create the transformer model file.
2. Download required Java standard files (crucial for version support).
3. Build your Java Transformer Project via the workflow in Developer Studio.
4. Write your custom Java code to handle the specific logic—in this case, extracting the signed JWT, converting it to Base64, replacing the JWT, and returning the customized response.
