You do not need IWS installed to launch a IWS workflow, yet it is required if you want to edit or create a new solution.

Open IWS and connect to a Spoke environment.

The I2I workflow can be built in two modes: Full extract and Delta extract.

  • Full mode returns all data from the Hub

  • Delta mode returns only the data which was loaded after the last Delta mode extraction

Extracting in Either Full or Delta Mode - I2I IWS Solution

With the exception of 1 setting, all of the steps are the same to create the solution using either Full or Delta mode.

To create a Full or Delta mode extract workflow in IWS, keep to the following steps:

  • Click Create New Solution.

  • In the New Solutions window go to Templates and select the Instance 2 Instance template.

  • Make up a name for your solution and click OK.

Integration and Workflow Studio

In the next window you will be offered to setup extract parameters.

If you are running Full Mode, disable Is Delta RunTime Mode.

If you are running Delta Mode, enable Is Delta RunTime Mode.

Example of Full Mode setting:

Example of Delta Mode setting:

For the example above, an RTR to extract seven (7) SMF records will be sent to Hub. Remember that the I2I Process UID is a unique value, which defines the number of I2I workflows in one Spoke environment. You can create several I2I workflows in one Spoke environment and to separate them you should set an unique UID for each.
When your setup parameters are ready, click OK.
IWS will create the main I2I workflow automatically:

You should specify the CM delivery stream name after that.
Click the RunRemoteExtract object and set the CM Stream Delivery name in the Properties box at the right:


Now publish the IWS solution to create I2I workflow files on the Spoke's end.
To do that, click Publish button and wait while IWS publishes the solution:
