Custom Business Event Component

Use the Custom Business Event component (tracking:custom-event element in the XML view) to add metadata and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to your flow. Configure the component as follows:

Click the Mule Palette tab in Anypoint Studio.
Drag Custom Business Event to any point of your flow.
Open the component properties view and specify values for Display Name and Event Name:

You can also configure Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to capture information from the message payload:

In the UI:
1. Click the plus button () inside Key Performance Indicators.
2. Configure Name and Expression / Value:

In the XML:

Add a child tracking:meta-data element to the tracking:custom-event.

Configure the key and value attributes inside tracking:meta-data:

For example:

<tracking:custom-event doc:name="Custom Business Event" event-name="New order">
			<tracking:meta-data key="order-id" value="#[payload.order.header.orderID]" />
</tracking:custom-event>

For your KPIs, use names that are easy to search for in the Anypoint Runtime Manager interface, and use a representative value, which can be any Mule expression:

Name Expression / Value

Name	Expression / Value
`employee-id`	`#[payload['ID']]`
`employee-email`	`#[payload['Email']]`
`employee-git-id`	`#[payload['GITHUB_ID']]`
`price`	`700`
`price-after-discount`	`#[vars.price]`
`order-id`	`#[payload.order.header.orderID]`
