Sample Data Wizard

Samples are snapshots of integration inputs and events that you can use to test and troubleshoot integrations. By using samples, you can verify that the actions and variables that you have configured will produce the results that you want.

The Sample Data wizard provides an easy-to-use interface that you can use to assign a name to a sample, select a sample data source (which can be an integration event or a file) to use as a sample, and/or review the variables that the sample uses.

You can create samples by using an event message, by using the Samples area of an integration's Input Data property page in the Create view, or by using the sample data features on the Test tab ribbon. Each of these options starts the Sample Data wizard.

Click the Test tab to open the Test view, if it is not already open.
In the Integration Events area or on the Messages tab in the output area of the integration status pane, use one of the following methods:
