Configurable Static Values

Unread post by JefferyD »

Certain service parameters populate some recommended values under static values.

For methods, if the ability to map the input parameters to an existing or possibly even custom list of static values was added, it would be helpful for configuring that method call later and even help the original developer convey the type of inputs that are expected for a particular input parameter.

Currently, that would need to be documented externally or the developer would have to go into the method canvas itself and determine how that input is expected.

I talked with Jeff on this and got clarification.

If you make a method, you might have a parameters like:

Action: Add/Update/Delete
SkipPriceCalculation: True/False

And it would accept only the values specified. But the developer using the prebuilt method will not know this and could give "Edit" as the action or "true"/"yes" as the SkipPriceCalculation value.

This feature request is to have some static text that gives future developers guidelines on what type of data the method parameters accept.
