Creating Process Objects

Creating Process Objects

On the
Process Objects
tab, you can define one or more process objects for a data access service connector to group data and create a structured object. When defined in the data access service connector, the process objects are available to processes that use the data access service connector. For example, if a database returns demographic information such as name, address, and phone number, you might create a single demographic process object that contains this information.
You can associate each process object with one or more of the data elements returned by the database using the
Actions/Output
tab.
To create data access service connector process objects, perform the following steps:
  1. Create or open an existing data access service connector.
  2. Click the
    Process Objects
    tab.
  3. Click
    +
    to add a new process object or select an existing process object from the list. Each process object appears as a line item on the tab.

  4. On the
    Properties
    tab, specify the following details for each process object:
    • Name
      : Enter a name that identifies the process object. This name appears in the lists where the process object is available for selection. This is a required field.
    • Description
      : Enter a description for the process object.
  5. On the
    Fields
    tab, specify the following details for each process object:
    • Field Name
      : Enter a name for each field in the process object.
    • Type
      : Select the data type of the value being written to the field using one of the built-in data types such as Text, Integer, or Date Time. If the type is Object List, you also select a process object.
    • Required
      : Select this check box to set the field as a required field.
      A required field must be included in the request payload. It can contain a value, be empty, or be null.
    • Nullable
      : Clear this check box if the field must not accept null values. By default, the
      Nullable
      check box is selected.
