Configuring a Local IDO data service

Whether creating a data service in a project or in the App Builder Repository, you can use a local (Mongoose) IDO as the source. This sub-procedure describes how to configure that data service.

To configure a data service using a local IDO as the source, use this sub-procedure:

Note: This sub-procedure assumes you have already performed the actions in the topic "Creating a data service using the Wizard" (either in a project or in the App Builder Repository).
  1. In the Create Data Service - Find IDO dialog box, use the Project drop-down menu to select the IDO project (collection) that contains the IDO you want.
  2. Optionally, to filter your search for the desired IDO, specify a search term in the Search field, and then click Search.
    If you leave this field blank, App Builder searches for all available IDOs in the collection.
  3. From the list of results, select the IDO you want.
    To view the details for a particular IDO, what properties it contains, and so on, click Details for that IDO.
  4. Once you locate and select the IDO you want, click Next.
  5. On the Operation page of the wizard, select the operation that you want the data service to perform on the IDO collection.
  6. Click Next.
  7. Use the Parameters page of the wizard to provide any input parameters, output parameters, or other settings required by the IDO.
    Some of these settings are optional, depending on the operation you selected.
  8. Optionally, to test the data service and verify that it behaves as expected, click Test Data Service.
    Supply any input parameters required or optionally accepted by the IDO.
  9. Click Next.
  10. On the Name & Description page of the wizard, provide a Name and, optionally, a Description for the data service.
  11. Click Next.
  12. On the Summary page of the wizard, verify that all your specifications are correct. When you are satisfied that they are, click Finish.
    App Builder adds the data service to the list of available data services.
  13. Click Close.
The new data service is now available for use in the App Builder workspace.
