Upgrading REST connectors with URLs not sourced from a Global Resource Setting

Take advantage of all available configuration options for a URL by upgrading REST connectors with URLs that are not sourced from a Global Resource Setting (GRS) to reference an application setting.

1. In Dev Studio, click Records SysAdmin Integration-Connectors Connect REST .

2. Click on the REST connector that you want to upgrade.

3. On the Service tab, click Upgrade to new endpoint configuration to upgrade REST connectors with the following URL configurations:

   • A complete URL with resource path parameters sourced from GRS and surrounded by curly brackets, for example, https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/{RPFromGRS}
   • A complete URL with query string parameters sourced from GRS and surrounded by curly brackets, for example, https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/{postid}/{itemname}?{QSParamsFromGRS}
   • Resource path parameters sourced from GRS, for example, https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/{postid}/comments?email=email
   • Query string parameters sourced from GRS, for example, https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/{postid}/comments?email={email}
   • Any other URL configuration where the URL, resource path, and query string are not sourced from GRS, for example, https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/{postid}/comments?email={email}

   By default, the Provide URL option is selected, and the Base URL and Resource path fields are populated with the URL and resource path parameters from the original URL, respectively.

4. Optional:

   Create a new application setting.

   1. Click Use application setting.

   2. In the Base URL field, press the Down arrow key and select Create New Setting.

   3. In the Create Setting For URL window, in the Owning ruleset field, enter the domain for the application setting. This value does not have to equal a ruleset name; it functions as a namespace.

   4. In the Name field, enter a name for the application setting.

   5. In the Short description field, enter text that describes the purpose of the application setting.

   6. Optional:

      Specify a category in the Category field.
