Oracle Integration Cloud: Building Integrations That Survive Production · Module 13 · Monitoring, tracking and alerting
Reading a failed instance
Lesson 129 of 175 · 2 min
The activity stream, the failed step, and the payload at that point. Getting from a red instance to a CAUSE without guessing. The method is the same every time and it is worth doing in order rather than jumping to a theory. OPEN THE INSTANCE AND FIND WHERE IT STOPPED. The activity stream shows each step in sequence with its outcome, so the failed step is visible rather than inferred. That alone rules out most of the guesses — a failure at the first call is a connectivity or credential problem, a failure at a mapping is data, a failure at the last write is the target rejecting. THEN READ THE ERROR AT THAT STEP, IN FULL. The useful part is often not the first line: an HTTP status says which class of problem, and the response body from the target system usually names the actual field. "400 Bad Request"…
