Deprecated functions

These Application Engine functions are deprecated:

OLAPCreateConnection
OLAPAttachConnection
OLAPCreatePooledConnection
RedshiftCreateConnection
XMLACreateConnection
XMLACreateConnectionTicket
SQLCreateConnection
SQLCreatePostgreSQLConnection
GetGlobalDataSourceConnectionString

Note: These functions will not work or they may not be used in a cloud environment. We also recommend to no longer use these functions in an on-premises environment.

You can use these replacement functions instead:

OLAPCreateNamedConnection
OLAPAttachNamedConnection
OLAPCreatePooledNamedConnection
RedshiftCreateNamedConnection
XMLACreateNamedConnection
SQLCreateNamedConnection
SQLCreateNamedSqlServerConnection
SQLCreateNamedOracleConnection
SQLCreateNamedPostgreSQLConnection

These functions are not supported in any runtime anymore and throw an exception if called:

GetCurrentUserId
CreateRepositoryConnection
OLAPCreateBooleanAttributeTableField(OlapConnection connection, …)
OLAPCreateDateAttributeTableField(OlapConnection connection, …)
OLAPCreateNumericalAttributeTableField(OlapConnection connection, …)
OLAPCreateStringAttributeTableField(OlapConnection connection, …)

Note: The only function that can be used to create RepositoryConnection is now CreateRepositoryConnectionExisting. As for the attribute table field creation functions, use their overloads taking OlapAttributeTable as the first parameter and commit modifications using the OLAPCommitAttributeTable function.
