How do I update object properties that don’t take strings?

Use the optional DataType property in your update message with the hex setting to specify your data as hexadecimal. For example:

ChangeToValue="F0-F1-F2-F3" DataType="hex"

Your hex data can contain no spaces (“F0F1F2F3“), or be separated with spaces or hyphens (“F0 F1 F2 F3” or “F0-F1-F2-F3“).

If you have a lot of data to upload – such as a .jpg photo – you can load it from a file using DataType="filename" with the path to the file in the ChangeToValue. Refer to the ActiveADAPTER Send Adapter User Guide for more information.

And don’t forget that the ActiveADAPTER evaluation installation package includes sample messages that show you how to set logon hours and add photos for user objects using hex data.

Is the ability to create Solicit-Response ports that query Active Directory on demand part of the Receive Adapter or the Send Adapter?

Both. The query is sent out by the send adapter. The actual querying is done by components of the receive adapter. Therefore, to be licensed to create Solicit-Response send ports, you need to be licensed for both the ActiveADAPTER send and receive adapters.

Will the ActiveADAPTER Send Adapter return error information back to my orchestration?

Yes. The adapter will return any exceptions back to your application AFTER any retries you have configured have been done.

Within your orchestration you can use Scope shapes to catch exceptions. In your exception handlers you can retrieve the error description to determine which way to branch.

Sample orchestrations that illustrate exception handing are included in the ActiveADAPTER Samples folder.
