2.1.17

2023-03-15

Version 2.1.17 introduces the operation "Custom Request". It has been in preview for a few versions but is now generally available. In this version we are also changing how the connector works regarding mapping between connectors. Before this release the mapping would fail if target connector did not have the used projection enabled. Now the mapping will succeed, but with workflow errors instead. See more details below.

New features

Custom Request

"Custom Request" is a more manual way of doing calls to IFS OData Services. The user can define what url to call, with what payload and what response to expect. This operation does not require the projection (endpoint) to be enabled in the connector. Furthermore, many (not all) operations can be converted to "Custom Request". There is currently no way to convert from a "Custom Request" into the regular operation. More details about this can be found in connectors documentation.

Tolerant mapping

When mapping from one connector to another, the mapping would previously fail if target connector did not have the specific projection enabled, or if there was a difference in the operation. Differences includes filtering on members not present in target connector and similar metadata mismatches.

With the release of 2.1.17, the target connector will accept what it considers errors and instead give the user the chance to correct these errors in Flow Studio later.

If the projection is not enabled, the user can enable it from the machine step (or refresh status) or the user can choose to convert the operation into a "Custom Request". Metadata issues can (hopefully) be resolved by opening the machine step and change the operation. More details about this can be found in connectors documentation.
