Integration Architecture: The Complete Picture
All integrations flow through an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) such as Mulesoft providing:
- Protocol conversion (REST, SOAP, EDI, File-based)
- Security enforcement (JWT, mTLS, TLS)
- Orchestration logic
- Retry and error handling
This centralized approach ensures consistent security patterns and simplifies troubleshooting.

Trigger: Supplier Account Status = ‘Visited’ AND Country requires permit verification (stored in Custom Metadata Type)
Pattern: Request-Reply via External Service (Async)
Flow:
- Record-Triggered Flow detects Account Status change
- Queries Custom Metadata Type for country requirements
