Validates a message based on an expression
The Validate pattern validates a message based on an expression. If the message evaluates to true, message processing continues. If the message evaluates to false, message processing stops and an PredicateValidationException is thrown.
The Validate pattern can be used anywhere in the route body.
Table 148, “Validate Properties” describes the properties you can specify using the properties editor.
Table 148. Validate Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Specifies the expression language used to process the expression. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
