Re: mesaage api avaialble ?

There is no API documentation yet, however all of the messageObject values are available from the drag and drop reference list. The main ones are:

.getId() //returns the internal id in Mirth
.getType() //returns type of message
.getSource() //sending system (facility)
.getVersion() //version of message
.getRawData() //incoming data
.getTransformedData() //incoming data as XML
.getEncodedData() //transformed data re-encoded after modifcations

Those are the main functions that would be used in the transformer. You can see the full function list here:

http://www.mirthproject.org/fisheye/browse/~raw,r=1878/Mirth/trunk/server/src/com/webreach/mirth/model/MessageObject.java

That being said, an full API document is in the works.
