Hi dojo users,

I have a Service Template with several Child elements.

One of the child elements is matching a single element in the cluster so there isn't the choise of chosing from a list(element A/B/<None>). But there are services which don't require the element to be part of and since I have no options to chose from by default I am having this element into the service but I don't need it.

Do I have any options inside the Service Template to make optional or any oher way to not be  part of the service ?

Thanks.

Hi Daniel,
Just double checking, the option:
– This service child is optional
does not fit your use case?
If this option does not fit your use case, did you try using conditions? For example: Dynamically include when …
Hope it helps.

Hi,

I found a workaround solution: I created an Input Data entry which I used as a Name mask while activating the Include all matching elements in generated service option.

This way I can input N/A as data entry when deploying the service and this would exclude the element from being present.

The other option, using Dynamic Conditions as sugested by Miguel, also works but is not removing the element completely  from the service, it just tag-it with "excluded" from service.

Thanks guys.
