Abstract

A device may identify a tool operating on a first device for integration into a lifecycle management platform operating on a second device. The tool may be associated with providing a functionality not included in the lifecycle management platform. The first device may be external to the second device. The device may determine a set of tool attributes for data events associated with the tool. The data events may include a data input, a data output, a new message, an updated message, a deleted message, or the like. The device may select a message format based on the set of tool attributes. The device may configure adaptation for a tool application programming interface (API) of the tool and a platform API of the lifecycle management platform based on the message format. The device may provide information associated with configuring adaptation for the tool API and the platform API.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

receiving, by a first device, a message from a second device;
identifying, by the first device, a first adapter for the message;
using, by the first device, the first adapter to convert the message to a first particular format;
outputting, by the first device, an adapted message to a third device,
the adapted message being the message converted to the first particular format;
receiving, by the first device, from the third device, and based on outputting the adapted message, a response message;
identifying, by the first device, a second adapter for the response message;
using, by the first device, the second adapter to convert the response message to a second particular format;
and
outputting, by the first device via an application programming interface (API) of the second device, an adapted response message to the second device,
the adapted response message being the response message converted to the second particular format.

8 more elements

A first device, comprising:

one or more memories;
and
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
receive a message from a second device;
identify a first adapter for the message;
use the first adapter to convert the message to a first particular format;
output an adapted message to a third device,
the adapted message being the message converted to the first particular format;
receive, from the third device and based on outputting the adapted message, a response message;
identify a second adapter for the response message;
use the second adapter to convert the response message to a second particular format;
and
output an adapted response message to the second device,
the adapted response message being the response message converted to the second particular format, and
the adapted response message being received, by the second device, via an application programming interface (API) of the second device.

12 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a first device, cause the one or more processors to:
receive a message from a second device;
identify a first adapter for the message;
use the first adapter to convert the message to a first particular format;
output an adapted message to a third device,
the adapted message being the message converted to the first particular format;
receive, from the third device, and based on outputting the adapted message, a response message;
identify a second adapter for the response message;
use the second adapter to convert the response message to a second particular format;
and
output an adapted response message to the second device,
the adapted response message being the response message converted to the second particular format, and
the adapted response message being received, by the second device, via an application programming interface (API) of the second device.
