Hi Dojo,
I am creating a service template in DataMiner, and it is working correctly in terms of creating the child elements, input data, etc.
My question is related to the Visio file that needs to be associated with the service. One of the child elements in this template can be created using 3 different protocols. Since these protocols have different PIDs, this directly affects the Visio visualization that should be used for the created service.
Because all services are created from the same template, the only information that truly differentiates one case from another is the name of the protocol used by that child element.
The idea would be to use that information to associate the service with the correct Visio file. With that in mind, is there any way, within the service template configuration itself, to retrieve or reuse the name of the protocol used by a child element, so it can be used in a property or in some kind of Visio association?
Thanks!
Hi Daniel,
There was a similar question here: Visio Show/Hide: check if parameter exists? - DataMiner Dojo. I think the answer I provided over there also applies here in this case. You can make use of extended conditions to create shapes based on the protocol (and protocol version). These shapes can be placed on top of each other because only one will be shown in DataMiner Cube.
The benefit of this is that you don't need to add information in a property or any other way.
Kind Regards,
Jarno
