1. Platform Event

To subscribe platform event we can use the apex trigger. We use generic method to execute the interface either it is an inbound or outbound interface. Execution of interface using apex trigger is is a Salesforce solution. But with Skyvva we can enrich the event data with mapping and process the data after we have mapped the event/message. Here It is the same way as we process an incoming message through the skyvva processing pipeline e.g. workflow, mapping, processing.

Platform event

Platform events enable developers to deliver secure, scalable, and customizable event notifications within the Salesforce platform or from external sources. Platform events are based on a publish-subscribe architecture.

How Platform event work with inbound processing?

• we create a platform event with our inbound interface with the new version.
• We used API to execute an inbound interface. With this API we can execute an inbound or outbound interface in a synchronous or asynchronous way. We have to provide this API in two versions e.g. REST API and internal apex method. The REST API is used by external REST client and the internal API is used by apex class, Flow, or Process. With this API or method, we should be able to execute both inbound and outbound interface unlike our existing method 'invokeCalloutX()' where we can use only wit outbound interface.
