Editing and Processing API Messages
There may be scenarios in which it is necessary to reprocess an API message. For example, a connectivity issue might create an issue with an API message as it is being processed, leading to an incomplete activity. In such a scenario, the message may need to be edited and then reprocessed. This process will differ depending on whether you are working with the legacy or new API Engine.
