Table 109. Set Body Properties

NameDescription

Language

Specifies the expression language used to process the expression.

Description

Specifies a text description for the node. This description is included in the generated XML file, but it is informational only. It is not used by Apache Camel.

Id

Specifies a unique identifier for the endpoint.

The tooling automatically generates an id for a node when it is created, but you can remove that id or replace it with your own. The Camel debugger requires all nodes with a breakpoint set to have a unique id.

You can use the id to refer to endpoints in your Camel XML file.
