Hi, Is there a way to get the data store and data type objects associ

Hello, can you elaborate on what you mean by associated? You can add objects to applications and export them into a zip file. Note that data stores cannot be exported although reference to them will remain in the exported objects.

On a form, I want the user to choose and application, and then choose a data store entity (constant). So I will need a list of data store entity constants that have been created in that application. (for a dropdown)

Hi Rachel, there is no OOTB available for the required operation. If the requirement is just to capture user selection and is not dynamic, you can write an expression rule to get the job done.

As the number of entities in your app will not change that often, why not just create a expression which returns a list of entities and meaningfull names for them. Then use this in your SAIL form for a drop down. Off course you can create a plugin to get this info.

yes.... how do I return the list of entities is the question

Something like this should do it
={entities: {cons!ENTITY1, cons!ENTITY2, ...}, names:{"Fancy name 1", "Fancy name 2", ...}}

@rachelz Hi, if your requirement is to get the objects associated with the Application object, developing a plugin could be a solution. Reviewing the code in 'Get Application Groups' Shared Component at https://forum.appian.com/suite/tempo/records/type/components/item/i8BCLGOdlMUpdGVqT-RV7oRg74uEGJO5ycR0HHF-pz1a4_u_g4GxR-w6CWqzqXW1A/view/summary gives you a good kick start as per my knowledge. Because in this shared component gets the 'Group' type objects associated with Application object, and you might give a try to obtain a new type(Data Store Entities in your case) objects associated with Application. And this way always fetches you the objects dynamically(without need to updating the expression rule as specified in above comments), given an application id.

Further I can also confirm that there isn't OOTB or shared component to fulfill your requirement as per my knowledge. But I would personally prefer to do something like as suggested by @stefanh.

Yes it needs to be dynamic so I will take a look at the code you mentioned
