This Snap has exactly one document input view.

The required input of the snap is an array of objects including object type nad attributes for each object that needs to be created in Teamcenter.

• Mapper
• Copy

This Snap has exactly one document output view.

The output of the snap is a JSON array “result” including as much objects as should be created. Each JSON object includes two objects, one for the Item created and one for the Item Revision created.

• Mapper
• JSON Splitter
• Router

Default value: Tc Create And Update Multi

Specify the JSON array object containing objects to be created/updated in Teamcenter.

In JSON document the content for path can look like this:

[
  {
    "objects": [
        {
          "object_type": "Item",
          "object_name": "DocumentationTest0",
          "object_desc": "Test0"
        },
        {
          "object_type": "Item",
          "object_desc": "Test1",
          "object_name": "DocumentationTest1",
          "revision": {
            "object_desc": "Test1 revision"
          }
        }
      ]
  }
]

Default value: N/A

Example: $.objects

Allows to disable mapping of display to internal mapping. Disabling will improve performance. This is relevant for references or LOVs.

ON: Values given in input are displays and will be mapped to internal values for attribute.

OFF: No mapping of attribute values. Input document contains internal value for attribute itself.

Default value: Deselected

Example: Deselected

OFF: No log information.

ON: Configure Setting to add log information to output next to resulting entitities list and original information. Log can contain this information:

"log": {
          "createAndUpdateMulti@Item": {
            "messages": [
              "Next step: getCreationInput",
              "Completed step: getCreationInput",
              "Next step: createAndRelate",
              "Completed step: createAndRelate",
              "Next step: getUpdateInfos",
              "Completed step: getUpdateInfos"
            ],
            "completed": [
              "getCreationInput",
              "createAndRelate",
              "getUpdateInfos"
            ]
          }
        }

Default value: Deselected

Example: Deselected

Select this checkbox to make the Snap look for the name given in Expand Attributes Path in the input document (for example, $expand) or in the Pipeline parameters (for example, _expand), and use that content. Expand Attributes Path then changes to a String field with the default value $.expand. In Pipeline parameters, separate the attribute names with commas.

When deselected, configure Expand Attributes Path as a string or an expression.

Default status: Deselected

Specify the JSON path to the expand attributes in the input document. Expand attributes are the list of attributes that the Teamcenter response must contain. Each name must be the technical name of a valid property in the Teamcenter data model for the expected objects. For example:

"expandAttributes": [
  "item_id",
  "item_revision_id",
  "last_mod_date",
  "object_string",
  "items_tag.uom_tag"
]

Default value: N/A

Example: $.expandAttributes

Select how the Snap represents references and lists of values (LOVs) that Teamcenter returns. The Snap can return them as nested JSON objects instead of flattened IDs and internal values with additional _DISPLAY attributes:

• References become {"_id": …, "UID": …, "_display": …} or null, including inside reference arrays.
• LOVs become {"_value": …, "_display": …} or null, including inside LOV arrays.

The available options are:

• Yes. The referenced object or LOV is a separate JSON object in the result. For example:

  "owning_user": {
    "_id": "TC*User*null***AgKAUUYTZLWoZA",
    "object_string": "user111 (user111)",
    "UID": "AgKAUUYTZLWoZA"
  }

• No. The referenced object or LOV is flattened into attributes on the current result object, and synthetic attributes such as those ending in _DISPLAY are added. For example:

  "owning_user": "TC*User*null***AgKAUUYTZLWoZA",
  "owning_user_DISPLAY": "user111 (user111)"

• Use Default. The Snap uses the default configured for the Snap Pack, which is Yes or No depending on the adapter.tc.snaplogic.expandReferencesAndLovs setting in the teamcenter_snappack.properties file.

Default value: Use Default

Example: Yes
