Hello Dojo community,

I have a requirement to edit (CRUD) instances of exiting Dataminer Object Model programmatically from within a custom API automation script.

I found the following references:

https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/api/types/Skyline.DataMiner.Utils.DOM.html

https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/api/types/Skyline.DataMiner.Utils.DOM.Builders.html

The way I understand it, to i.e. create a new instance I need to do the following:

DomCache dom = new DomCache(messageHandler, moduleId);

DomHelper helper = dom.Helper;

DomInstanceBuilder domInstanceBuilder = new DomInstanceBuilder();

domInstanceBuilder.WithID(guidId);

DomInstance newDomInstance = domInstanceBuilder.Build();

newDomInstance.SetFieldValue("SectionName", "FieldName", "Initial Value", dom);

DomInstanceCrudHelperComponent instanceCrudHelp = helper.DomInstances;

instanceCrudHelp.Create(newDomInstance);

Questions:

1. Is this the correct/optimal way?
2. How can GUID for the new instance be auto generated?
3. What is the recommended implementation of the MessageHandler method passed via the Func delegate when creating the DomCache object.

Many thanks.

Pawel.
