RESTAPI from HCM Cloud
Hi - I have created a routine in Connector Rule to fetch the Worker data from HCM and I was able to assign it to a variables and able to print it successfully. My question is below 1. How I can assign the variables to the List because I am trying to use this connector rule in Data Source and trying to bring the data to the OS stage Area ? is it possible, My function return type is task for the RESTAPI call. 2. Or I can create a Extender Rule and create a Table in the Backend and import into the table and create an another connector rule to bring it to the stage. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks Krishna
Data source Connector - Nested Drill back
Hi, I am trying to build a Drill back functionality in one of data source connector business rules. I tried looking into One Stream reference guide on Data Source connector business rules and I found below reference for nested Drill back functionality. But practically when I tried to drill back on a drill back detail row, OS returns following message. The click on the drill back is not even calling the connector business rules any more. Can someone help me with the ways to code with nested drill backs. I tried to follow the examples from Golfstream application. Private Function GetDrillBackTypeList(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Transformer, ByVal args As ConnectorArgs) As List(Of DrillBackTypeInfo) Try 'Create the SQL Statement Dim drillTypes As New List(Of DrillBackTypeInfo) If args.DrillCode.Equals(StageConstants.TransformationGeneral.DrillCodeDefaultValue, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Source GL Drill Down drillTypes.Add(New DrillBackTypeInfo(ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.FileShareFile, New NameAndDesc("InvoiceDocument", "Invoice Document"))) drillTypes.Add(New DrillBackTypeInfo(ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid, New NameAndDesc("MaterialTypeDetail", "Material Type Detail"))) ElseIf args.DrillCode.Equals("BOMDetail", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Material Type Drill Down drillTypes.Add(New DrillBackTypeInfo(ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid, New NameAndDesc("MaterialAllProducts", "Material All Products"))) drillTypes.Add(New DrillBackTypeInfo(ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid, New NameAndDesc("MaterialAllVendors", "Material All Vendors"))) End If Return drillTypes Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function 'Execute specific drill back type Private Function GetDrillBack(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Transformer, ByVal args As ConnectorArgs, ByVal connectionString As String) As DrillBackResultInfo Try If args.DrillBackType.NameAndDescription.Name.Equals("InvoiceDocument", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Level 1: Show FileShare File Dim drillBackInfo As New DrillBackResultInfo drillBackInfo.DisplayType = ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.FileShareFile drillBackInfo.DocumentPath = Me.GetDrillBackDocPath_L1(si, globals, api, args) Return drillBackInfo ElseIf args.DrillBackType.NameAndDescription.Name.Equals("MaterialTypeDetail", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Level 1: Return Drill Back Detail Dim drillBackSQL As String = GetDrillBackSQL_L1(si, globals, api, args) Dim drillBackInfo As New DrillBackResultInfo drillBackInfo.DisplayType = ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid drillBackInfo.DataTable = api.Parser.GetXFDataTableForSQLQuery(si, DbProviderType.OLEDB, connectionString, True, drillBackSQL, False, args.PageSize, args.PageNumber) Return drillBackInfo ElseIf args.DrillBackType.NameAndDescription.Name.Equals("MaterialAllProducts", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Level 1: Return Drill Back Detail Dim drillBackSQL As String = GetDrillBackSQL_L2(si, globals, api, args, True, False) Dim drillBackInfo As New DrillBackResultInfo drillBackInfo.DisplayType = ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid drillBackInfo.DataTable = api.Parser.GetXFDataTableForSQLQuery(si, DbProviderType.OLEDB, connectionString, True, drillBackSQL, False, args.PageSize, args.PageNumber) Return drillBackInfo ElseIf args.DrillBackType.NameAndDescription.Name.Equals("MaterialAllVendors", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) Then 'Level 1: Return Drill Back Detail Dim drillBackSQL As String = GetDrillBackSQL_L2(si, globals, api, args, False, True) Dim drillBackInfo As New DrillBackResultInfo drillBackInfo.DisplayType = ConnectorDrillBackDisplayTypes.DataGrid drillBackInfo.DataTable = api.Parser.GetXFDataTableForSQLQuery(si, DbProviderType.OLEDB, connectionString, True, drillBackSQL, False, args.PageSize, args.PageNumber) Return drillBackInfo Else Return Nothing End If Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function Thanks, Mohan Alluri.
New Syntax for LookupRowFieldValue()
Summary Is there any documentation and/or sample code showing how to use the new "dbWheres" argument in a LookupRowFieldValue() function? Detail In version 6.8 (maybe earlier), if you use .LookupRowFieldValue() with your criteriaExpression (i.e. - your where clause) as a string you get a warning that this syntax is obsolete. It still runs, but obviously we shouldn't use it going forward. So, something like this now throws an warning: .LookupRowFieldValue(si, dbLocation, tableName, criteriaExpression, fieldToReturn, defaultValue) .LookupRowFieldValue(si, dbLocation.Framework, "SecUser", Name = 'Phil Brosnan', "Email", String.Empty) OneStream wants you to use a new Syntax that replaces the criteriaExpression with a list of where clauses in a dbWheres object. .LookupRowFieldValue(si, dbLocation, tableName, dbWheres, fieldToReturn, defaultValue) Unfortunately, there is no documentation or examples on what a dbWhere object is, how to create one, or how to pass that dbWhere object into your dbWheres list. My question is, does anyone know how to use this new “dbWhere” syntax in a LookupRowFieldValue function, or know how to do something similar with a different function? Just looking for some sample code I can leverage. Thanks,
[howto] Use "Insert Code" when posting on Forum boards
Hey guys! Just a reminder: if you're going to post code in this forum, please make it easier to read by using the "Insert/Edit Code Sample" button on the expanded formatting toolbar. Here's a short video showing how it works. If you need to edit code after you created the block, just double-click on it. Ideally you'd also indent it first, either in an editor or with something like DotNetFiddle. Remember: the easier it is for others to read your code, the more likely that they'll be able to solve your problem! Cheers! Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Mod
