Publish the Workflow to Data Mover
In Data Shaper, each workflow must be linked to an Asynchronous Web Service, which is listed under the Asynchronous Web Service folder. This association is essential for enabling the workflow to be executed by the Data Shaper 2.0 Processor service task.
An Asynchronous Web Service acts as metadata that references the physical path of the workflow. This path is displayed in the Filename field and is used by the system to locate and execute the workflow during processing.
When defining a mediation contract in Data Mover, the Datashaper Payload drop-down menu will list the Data Shaper workflows of the Asynchronous Web Service folder. Selecting a Data Shaper workflow ensures it is triggered correctly.
Refer to the Defining a mediation contract using the Data Shaper workflow template page for details.
Creating a New Asynchronous Web Service

Workflow Run Configuration: select Local.
