Number of files received by a file receive location

Question

Is there a way to calculate the number of files received by a receive location using BAM?

Answer 1

I use the API to come up with a list of every intersection of Orchestration and Receive Location and then report on 1) whether (and when) the file was picked up along with status of operation, and 2) whether (and when) the file went through orchestration along with status. It's lots of code but do-able. And of course as tomasr states if a file gets debatched into separate messages, the logic is only good for last message.

Answer 2

Not really directly, unless you specifically created a metric for that on your observation model. BAM itself doesn't track that information otherwise, and things get a bit more complicated if you're doing debatching of messages in the receive pipeline (because then #messages != #files).
