How to get payload mime type in Mule 4

Question

I am trying to find out what is the payload type by printing it out using logger. I am aware that in Mule 3 you could use this #[payload.getClass().getSimpleName()] or #[message.dataType.type].

How to achieve this in Mule 4? I did my google search but could not find any solution.

You can use:

#[payload.^class]

Try logging:

#[payload.^]

Should print:

{class=java.util.ArrayList, encoding=UTF-8, mimeType=application/java, raw=[{}]}

But if your payload is not application/java mime/type but json or something instead it won't have class attribute.

Thanks for your answer but it doesn't work - prints "null" – Tomeister Jul 19 '18 at 08:35
`#[payload.^]` works just like I want. Perfect. Thanks – Tomeister Aug 01 '18 at 11:49
