The operation represents a specific action to perform against that connection, such as a database SELECT query.
3. Document: A Document is a set of data that goes through a process. It is a Run-time component. It can be a single record, a group of records, an EDI transaction or an entire file.
4. Execution: An Execution results from the running of a process. It helps to view the data passed into and out of the process, detailed logs and error Messages.
5. Map: It transforms data from one format to another such as XML to JSON,etc.
6. Process: It is integration between two or more systems. Every process begins with a Start shape that gets data from some source and usually ends with one or more connectors to send the data to the destination(s).
7. Profile: A Structure or layout of the data to be processed. Different types supported in Boomi: DB, EDI, Flat File, XML, JSON
8. Shape: A graphical presentation of “action” items of Boomi. These are linked together to form the business logic for a process. These help in performing execution tasks like routing, document splitting, and data transformation.
