Add new flows Only Admins

Create new flows to track your integrations. With the right mapping, you see each message as it passes through.

PropertyDescription
Flow NameA Flow Name for the integration. Example: invoice request, invoice approval.
FolderThe Folder where to save the flow. See folders structures.
MappingIdentifies a message in the flow. The Domain, Service, Action, and Version fields match a message to a flow. Set a Workflow name if the message ran through an Azure Logic App.
Business PropertiesMetadata for the flow. Each Business property name gets its value from the message.
Advanced Settings
  • Connected Dashboard (= hybrid setups require a link from one Dashboard (BizTalk) to another (Azure).)
  • Show milestone and event text (= displays the flow milestone and event text data).
  • Show Resubmit / Resume (= make the flow action buttons available per flow New since v6.2.)
  • Custom resubmit URL Your resubmit URL and Custom resume URL Your resume URL (= turn these options on and set the URLs to use your own resume and resubmit logic.)
AlertsSee alerting
Allow access to flow

Microsoft Entra ID groups and local users can access flows in the folder. Users get their flow permissions based on their role.

Admins can access all flows

Users with the System admin role can see all flows in every folder.

Add an alert for a flow

Create Azure Monitor alerts right from the flow. Alerts track the health of your flows. You get notified when something needs attention. For example, when a flow goes inactive or starts to fail.

requires role assignments after installation

The Dashboard requires role assignments to add alerts to flows.

PropertyDescription
Alert nameThe Alert name must be unique per flow. The flow name becomes a prefix.
DescriptionThe Description adds context to the alert.
SeverityThe Severity level or urgency of the alert.
Schedule
  • Frequency (= how often the alert runs. In the range of 5-1440.)
  • Time window (= the log range Azure checks, in minutes. In the range of 5-2880.)
TriggerThe Threshold and Threshold Operator set when the alert fires.
ThrottlingUse Suppress alerts and Suppress alerts (minutes) to mute alerts for x minutes. This helps avoid alert fatigue.
Query

Monitors flow activity via Azure logs. (Custom events named: InvictusImportJobFlowActivityAlert.) Invictus logs one event per active flow per hour.

If an alert runs every 60 minutes and finds no logs (threshold < 0), the flow is inactive. It then fires an alert.

logging frequency

Logging happens per flow, not per message. It can exceed one entry per hour due to scaling. Reduce FlowActivityIntervalInMinutes to log more often.

RecipientsAdd an email Recipient. They get a mail with a Subject each time an alert fires.
