First flow

Exercise

Section titled “Exercise”

Create an empty Mulesoft project called “mulesoft-curso-basico-ejercicio-1” where, in the XML file (if there is none, create a Mule Configuration File), you will do the following:

Create two flows,

  • The first one will have a Scheduler and a Flow-Reference pointing at the second flow.
  • The second flow will only have a Logger with the message Hola Mundo!

The expected process flow would be this one:

  1. Start
  2. Scheduler
  3. Flow Reference
  4. Subflow
    1. Logger
  5. End

Swipe to see the whole flow

Note: start and end are illustrative only.

Hints

Section titled “Hints”
  • Remember that every component, flow, Source operation and Process operation lives in the Mule palette.
  • Since the first flow holds a Scheduler, which is a Source, it has to be a Flow.
  • Since the second flow only has a Logger, which is a Process, and has no Source, that flow should be a subflow.
