### Proxy Service Message Type Configuration page

Use AquaLogic Proxy Service Message Type Configuration page to configure message types for a proxy service whose type is Messaging Service. This page appears both in the New AquaLogic Proxy Service wizard and in the AquaLogic Proxy Service editor:

The binding definition for messaging services consists of configuring the content-types of the messages that are exchanged. The content-type for the response does not have to be the same as for the request; therefore, the response is configured separately (for example, the service could accept an MFL message and return an XML acknowledgment receipt).

Note: | E-mail, File, FTP, or SFTP transport proxy services whose type is Messaging Service support one-way messaging only; the Response Message Type should be None. If you select an option other than None, the E-mail, File, FTP, or SFTP protocols will not be available on the Transport Configuration page.

Option | Description
--- | ---
Request Message Type | Select a message type for the request message: None - Select this option if there is no request message. Binary - Select this option if the content-type of the message is unknown or not important. Text - Select this option if the message can be restricted to text. MFL - Select this option if the message is a binary document conforming to an MFL definition. Enter the MFL file name (qualified by its path), or click Browse to select a file. You can configure only one MFL file. Note: To support multiple MFL files, define the content as binary or text and use the MFL action in the message flow to convert to XML. XML - Select this option if the message is an XML document. Enter the XML file name (qualified by its path), or click Browse to select a file. Optionally provide some type information by declaring (in the element or type field) the XML schema type of the XML document exchanged.
