Incoming Method Parameters
Standard Object Parameters
When a Java method is invoked by a Rule or Macro, the record's fields are passed to the method in a Parameters instance. That instance contains the object's custom fields, as well as the object's Standard Fields. The following convenience parameters are passed, as well:
Field name Notes name The record's "name", as specified by the object's Record Locator definition. For cases, it's the unique case number. For users, it's the user's full name. And so on. is_deleted True (=1) if the record is in the recycle bin. Otherwise false (=0). userPrimaryTeamId The current user's team affiliation.
Field Parameters
When a Parameters instance is returned by a search, it contains the fields specified in the search. When passed to a Java method by a Rule or Macro, it contains all of the fields for the current record.
Add this line to your code above to put a complete list of parameters into the debug log:
- <syntaxhighlight lang="java" enclose="div">
// Generate a newline-separated list of parameters Logger.info( params.toString().replace(",", ",\n"), "YourClassName" ); </syntaxhighlight>
The code assumes that your parameters object is named params. It adds a linebreak after each comma in the string-representation of the Parameters hashmap, to improve readability.
Tip: To see the listing clearly, copy the results into a text editor.
Additional Macro Parameters
These values have counterparts in the rule parameters, but have different names:
Field name Notes p_service_domain Ex: acme.claimdynamics.com userId The current user's ID.
Additional Rule Parameters
These values are included when a Java method is invoked from a Rule. The first two are equivalent to the additional macro parameters shown above. A number of useful session values are included as well, along with values that pertain to the current user:
Field name Notes serverName Ex: acme.claimdynamics.com user_id The current user's ID. current_application The ID of the application the user is running. JSESSIONID The session identifier. (Generally used only when making a REST API call.) isCaseDynamicsSession True (=1) if the ServiceDesk application is running. Else false (=0). login not used layout_id The ID of the Form that is currently being used to display the record. user.id user.primaryteamid userPrimaryTerritoryId user_local_time user User's full name. For example: Aaron Acme user.firstname user.lastname user.primaryteamname user.primaryroleid user.email
userEmailEmail address lang User's language identifer. For example: en
Current Session Information
In addition to the incoming Parameters, these APIs can be used to get information about the current user and the current session:
