Method Detail

getId

String getId()

Unique time-based id (UUID) for this EventContext.

Returns:

the UUID for this EventContext

getCorrelationId

String getCorrelationId()

The correlation ID is used to correlate messages between different flows and systems.

If the connector that receives the source message supports the concept of a correlation ID then the connector should create an instance of EventContext using this value. If on the other hand, no correlation ID is received by the source connector then a time-based UUID, also available via getId() is used.

Returns:

the correlation id.

getReceivedTime

Instant getReceivedTime()

Returns:

a timestamp indicating when the message was received by the connector source

getOriginatingLocation

ComponentLocation getOriginatingLocation()

Returns:

the location where this context's events come from
