Generation of Message GUIDs within XI

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

can anyone tell me how message GUIDs are generated in XI and if there is a part which is simply increased by each message sent to XI. My goal is to determine a message ID range which is lets say 100000 Messages "higher" than the last ID used.

Thanks an Regards,

Sebastian

u can fetch the message id using the UDF in XI.

refer the below link:

Still ur requirement is not clear.

Hi all,

thanks for your replies so far.

But that was not quite what I am looking for.

I just want to know how the algorithm of generating GUIDs works on PI.

I do not want to modify the algorithm itself but want to make use of the way the GUIDs in an external testtool which can generate message GUIDs and then send messages to the Inegration Engine.

Thanks and Regards

Sebastian

XI Message GUID is automatically generated by an algorithm which makes sure that the Uniqueness is maintained.

If you want to make use of that in your message for ease of monitoring use this blog:

I am not sure if you can customoze this according to your needs because that involves changing the algorithm--- Not a Good Idea!!

Thanks,

Karthik
