There are several ways monitor messages passing through the Service Bus. Using pipeline alerts is one of them. Pipeline alerts can be searched in the Enterprise Manager based on several parameters such as summary or when they have occurred. Usually an important part of the message payload is saved in the content of the alert. This content can not be searched from the Enterprise Manager. In this post I will provide an example for logging Service Bus request and response messages using pipeline alerts and a means to search alert contents for a specific occurrence. The example provided has been created in SOA Suite 12.1.3 but the script also works in SOA Suite 11.1.1.6.
