On the Data Mapping tab of the orchestration workflow Property Editor, you can create private complex data to use in orchestrations.
Procedure Summary
- Select an orchestration workflow to display it in the orchestration workflow editor.
- Click the Data Mapping tab of the orchestration workflow Property Editor.
- To add a new data element, right-click the WorkingData step input, and then select Add New DataElement.
- Rename the new data element, if you want.
- Right-click the new data element, point to Type[String], and then select Private Complex.
- To add a child data element, right-click the new data element again, and then select Add Child DataElement.
- Rename the new child data element, if you want.
- Repeat the previous two steps to add more child data elements.
In the following exercise, you will create a private complex working data element named "PrivateComplex" that contains three child data elements (Child1, Child2, and Child3).
To create a private complex working data element:
- Under Orchestration Workflows, select DataMappingOrchWF.
-
In the orchestration workflow Property Editor, click the
Data Mapping tab.
The WorkingData step input should be visible under the name of the orchestration workflow (DataMapping) in the Working data column. (If it is not, click a blank area in the orchestration workflow editor.)
-
Right-click the WorkingData step input,
and then select Add New DataElement.
DataElement appears under the WorkingData step input.
- While DataElement is still selected, type PrivateComplex, and then press the Tab key.
-
Right-click PrivateComplex, point to
Type[String], and then select
Private Complex.
(Type[String] indicates that the original
data type of PrivateComplex was string.)
The
icon changes to 
. -
Right-click PrivateComplex, and then
select Add Child DataElement.
A new data element (DataElement) is added under PrivateComplex.
- While DataElement is still selected, type Child1, and then press the Tab key. You can also change the data type of the child data element.
- Repeat steps 6 and 7 two more times, naming the new child data elements Child2 and Child3.
