Using specific MID Server in Flow Action Rest Step

Hi,

I have created an integration using the rest step in a Flow designer action. I have selected to use MID server, and have to select Application and Capability of the MID server. 

For the integration to work, a specific MID server on each instance has to be used, due to firewalls and internal network. However, a high number of MID servers are active in each instance. From what I can see, this should be solved using capabilities/application. But I am not sure wether I can (or should) simply make a capability named "integration X" and connect that to the integration and the MID server. Or if capabilities should only be specific technologies, like the OOTB options seems to be. 

Has anyone solved this in their system, or have advice on the optimal way of solving this?

BR,
Einvald Serigstad

Hi Tantony, we ended up creating a new MID Server Application (ecc_agent_application) to route traffic to a specific (or several specific) MID Servers. 

To achieve this, we created the new MID Server Application and added it under Supported Applications on the MID Server. In the REST Step in the Flow action, we then selected the new MID Server Application under "MID Application" and REST under Capabilities. MID Selection is "Auto-Select MID Server".

I also had to add the capability(In our case we chose "IntegrationHub Utilities" instead of REST as capability) to the MID Server record under capability related list

 

Edited: "IntegrationHub Utilities" capability was giving errors sometimes. Changed to 'Rest' capability
