API Methods

Methods that can be invoked in public APIs.

GetAllowedCustomPropertyValues

Gets the allowed values for the specified custom property for this entity object. If supported the result is ordered by property value. Some property value sources do not support ordering - in that case the result is not ordered.
Return Type: Collection Of CustomPropertyValue
Declaring Type: EntityObject
Domain API Request: GET

Parameters

  • customPropertyCode
    The code of the custom property
    Type: string

  • search
    The search text - searches by value or description. Can contain wildcard character %.
    Type: string
    Optional: True
    Default Value: null

  • exactMatch
    If true the search text should be equal to the property value
    Type: boolean
    Optional: True
    Default Value: False

  • orderByDescription
    If true the result is ordered by Description instead of Value. Note that ordering is not always possible.
    Type: boolean
    Optional: True
    Default Value: False

  • top
    The top clause - default is 10
    Type: int32
    Optional: True
    Default Value: 10

  • skip
    The skip clause - default is 0
    Type: int32
    Optional: True
    Default Value: 0

CreateNotification

Create a notification immediately in a separate transaction, and send a real-time event to the user.
Return Type: void
Declaring Type: EntityObject
Domain API Request: POST

Parameters

  • user
    The user.
    Type: Users

  • notificationClass
    The notification class.
    Type: string

  • subject
    The notification subject.
    Type: string

CreateCopy

Duplicates the object and its child objects belonging to the same aggregate. The duplicated objects are not saved to the data source but remain in the same transaction as the original object.
Return Type: EntityObject
Declaring Type: EntityObject
Domain API Request: POST
