Summary
This page shows some some diagrams illustrating the role played by JEMH Field Processors, that are responsible for parsing incoming messages and building a map of data to be used during issue creation/update.
When the Field Processor consumes the email, it generates a map of keys and values, usually text in content. The keys can be either the 'as seen on screen' name of an existing Custom Field, or some pre-defined values (e.g. IJEMHFieldProcessorKeys.KEY_LABELS, IJEMHFieldProcessorKeys.KEY_DESCRIPTION etc). IJEMHFieldProcessorKeys is defined in the API package that third party Field Processors need to add their classpath.
