This stores the doucmentID of the document to update Record A with in a rule input. Ive tried building an sub-interface with the same fields and dropping that to the right to show the details of the record to update from but couldn't drop that into the form (not sure if you can use other interfaces within a form?) I was using the following within a column: rule!DMR_V2_documentTypeDetails_Sub( rule!DMR_V2_DocumentType_MasterByID(ri!documentID)) Got the following: So for now Ive just dropped some text fields and are populating these using a expression rule that grabs the field based on the documentId - however - although it displays the info, its not storing it into the CDT (the display value is using the expression rule, the save into is pointing to the CDT ne

Hi All, I've to create the create a new application that's going to include thousands of existing objects.(For example 90K objects.) It means, if each page is displaying 25 number of objects in a page list, I'll have to navigate around 3600 pages to select all objects in each page and click "Add to Application" for each page.  Is there any quick work around for achieving this? For example, we can think about writing automated script for this process in Selenium. Just wondering if we have any another smart approaches to meet this requirement, please?  Thanks.

Where do I have to place my a!save()-call? Inside my a!buttonWidget() ?

I am noticing some behavior for the multipledropdown field component that seems unexpected to me. I have included an interface code snippet below, which is what the following example is based off of. The issue is this: When I select any value from the muldipledropdownfield in the code below, the most recent selection is added to the end of the array in local!selectedColumnsToDisplay. However, when I select a second value, the index of the previous selection changes, and it moves to the position that it is in the choiceValues array. For example, when the page loads the value of local!selectedColumnsToDisplay is {"Three", "Four"}. Then, I select "One" from the dropdown. Now the value of local!selectedColumnsToDisplay is {"Three", "Four", "One"}. Then, I select "Two" from the dropdown. Now the value of local!selectedColumnsToDisplay is {"One", "Three", "Four", "Two"}. The val

For example, one of the constant object: EMAIL_VALUESwith array values Test1@xyz.com Test2@abc.com Test3@ijk.com If I'm searching for the text "@xyz.com", should show the result of constant name "EMAIL_VALUES". Thanks.
