About Service dotNet rules

Complete the Service tab to identify the activity that this Service dotNet rule calls. See More about Service Packages.

Field

Description

Primary Page  
Page Class

SmartPromptSpecify the Applies To class of the service activity.

Page Model

SmartPromptOptional. You can identify a model in the class identified in Page Class. If you do, the system applies the model immediately after it creates the page.

Page Name

Enter a page name for the class specified in the Page Class field. This is the top-level clipboard page that Process Commander uses as the primary page by the activity being called through the dotNet service. The activity property values may be written to or read from this page.

Enter any page name, or accept the default value MyServicePage. (This page name has no special characteristics.)

Service Activity  
Activity Name

SmartPromptSpecify the name of the activity for this service rule. This activity provides the external interface of the service. This activity is referred to as the service activity because it is part of a package of external Process Commander services.

The system uses the value in the Page Class field as the Applies To key part of the activity. The system creates a page with the name provided in the Page Name field and passes it to the activity as the primary page. If the Page Name field is blank, the system passes the activity an unnamed page.

If a parameter value is the same for every service request, you can use the  Params   button to set that parameter's value rather than requiring a client application to supply it in each request. For example, if a service activity starts a flow for a work object and the organization is always the same, specify the name of the organization on this tab. Parameter values from an incoming request override values set on this tab.

Processing Options
 
End requestor when done?

Select to have the system end this requestor session when the activity completes.

This check box affects only stateful processing. This check box is ignored when the Processing Mode on the service package data instance is set to Stateless.

Method is read-only
