Key Capabilities
- Intelligent message grouping based on correlation IDs and batch size limits
- Configurable minimum and maximum batch sizes for optimal processing
- Scheduled and immediate batch creation modes
- Support for custom correlation headers for advanced grouping logic
Overview
The Batch Create connector produces Batch Groups based on Messages that arrive in the Send folder (the Transactions tab of the connector settings pane). When a Batch Group is created, it is passed down the flow through the Transactions tab, where it can be processed by other connectors as needed.The Batch Create connector can only accept individual messages as inputs. If the connector receives an existing Batch Group as an input, it throws an error message.

Correlation Id Header Example
When you enter a header name in the Correlation Id Header field, the connector looks for headers that match the name you enter, then groups messages according to the values they have assigned to that header. For example, the following table displays six incoming messages:
If you enter Batch-Correlation-Id in the Correlation Id Header field, the connector creates three Batch Groups of these messages:
- The first batch group contains the messages with MessageId 1 and 2, since they both have the value
001for the Batch-Correlation-Id header. - The second batch group contains messages with MessageId 3 and 4, since they both have the value
002for the header. - The third batch group contains messages 5 and 6, since neither of them has the Batch-Correlation-Id header.
