  Error Handling in Mule 4 | Mule 4 Exception Handling Types

Error handling in mule 4 is done by:

1. Error Handler

2. On error continue

3. On error propagate

4. Raise error

The first Scenario is handling of error by: On error continue

On error continue settings:

On error continue handles the error and control moves to next component and gives 200 success response code. In this component, control does not move to the message source after the error occurs.

The second scenario is error handling by: on error propagate

On error propagate settings:

On error propagate logs the error if it occurs and gives error code and control moves to messaging source.

The third scenario is the error handler.

We configure the error handler to the global error handler. The global error handler is common to all flows in an application.

To configure it, go to:

global elements -> create -> global configurations-> configurations

The flow of global error handler:

We can configure on error continue or on error propagate in it.

Fourth scenario is: Raise error.

It throws an error with the specific type and description.

Flow:

 

Raise error settings:

Handling of error takes place at three levels:

1. Processor level

2. Flow level

3. Application level
