Create Attribute Map Services

Create Attribute Map Services

Create an assembly project.
The attribute map service enables you to define attributes and maps for your integration. Attributes are configurable values that define your integration. You can create these types of attributes:
  • Simple.
  • Reference.
  • Enumeration.
Maps reconcile internal Workday values with the external attribute values defined on your integration. You can create these types of maps:
  • Simple.
  • Class Report Field.
  • Enumeration.
  1. Open the assembly in the Assembly Editor.
  2. Drag a
    workday-in
     transport from the
    Palette
     to the Assembly Editor.
  3. On the
    Services
     tab of the
    Properties
     view for the
    workday-in
     transport, click
    Create attribute-map-service
    .
  4. On the
    Service Name
     window, enter a name for your attribute map service.
  5. On the
    Integration Attributes
     tab, consider:
    Option Description
    Name
    The name of the attribute. Must be unique across all integration systems.
    Type
    The attribute type definition.
    Add Simple Type Attribute
    Adds an attribute type that uses string literal values.
    Add Reference Type Attribute
    Adds an attribute type that uses references to Workday Class Report Fields (CRFs) and web services.
    Add Enumeration Type Attribute
    Select
    Edit Type
     to configure the enumeration. You can:
    • Use an
      Enumeration Reference
       to an existing enumeration definition in your tenant by entering its
      Type Name
      .
    • Create a new enumeration by entering a unique
      Type Name
       on the
      Enumeration Definition
       tab and specifying the values that it allows.
    When you enter the
    Type Name
     of an existing definition on the
    Enumeration Definition
     tab, Workday overwrites the definition.
  6. On the
    Integration Maps
     tab, select
    Add
     to add a map.
  7. As you configure the
    Internal Type
     and
    External Type
    , consider:
    Option Description
    Simple Type
    You can select these simple types:
    • Boolean
    • Date
    • Datetime
    • Number
    • Text
    Class Report Field
    Select
    Browse for CRF
    .
    Enumeration
    Configure your
    Enumeration Reference
     or
    Enumeration Definition
    .
Studio saves the attribute map service on the
workday-in
 transport of your integration. You can access the data from the service using the MVEL
intsys
 expression.
Deploy your integration.
