How to enumerate all the customers on a Skyve instance - skyve

How can I get a list of the customers that exist on a Skyve instance?
The only idea I've had is to query a table like ADM_SECURITYUSER directly:
SELECT distinct BIZCUSTOMER FROM ADM_SECURITYUSER
But I'd prefer to use something from the skyve API if it's available.

org.skyve.metadata.repository.ProvidedRepository.getAllCustomerNames().
This interface represents the capabilities required by a metadata repository implementation to be plugged in and used by Skyve (the SPI).
You can cast CORE.getRepository() or an injected org.skyve.metadata.repository.Repository to this interface.
It enumerates the customer names as depicted in the metadata, not in the database.

SSIS consolidate and concatenate multiple rows into single rows without using SQL

I am trying to accomplish something that is pretty easy to do in SQL, but seemingly very challenging to do in SSIS without using SQL. Basically, I need to consolidate and concatenate a field of a many-to-one relationship.
Given entities: [Contract Item] (many) to (one) [Account]
There is a field [ari_productsummary] that contains the product listed on the Contract Item entity. We want to write that value to the Account as [ari_activecontractitems]. However, an Account may have more than one Contract Item record associated to it, in which case, we want to concatenate those values. We also only want the distinct values to be concatenated (distinct rows already solved within my data flow).
This can be accomplished by writing to a temporary table, and then using a query or view to obtain the summarized results as followed. I created a SQL table called TESTTABLE that contains the [ari_productsummary] from the Contract Item entity along with the referring [accountid] to map it back to Account. I then wrote the following query as a view:
SELECT distinct accountid,
(SELECT TT2.ari_productsummary + '; '
FROM TESTTABLE TT2
WHERE TT2.accountid = TT.accountid
FOR XML PATH ('')
) AS 'ari_activecontractitems'
FROM TESTTABLE TT
Executing that Query provides me the results that I want, which I can then use for importing into the Account entity as shown below:
But how do I do this in a SSIS dataflow without writing to a SQL table as a temporary placeholder for the data?? I want to do the entire process inside one dataflow container, without using a temporary SQL table/view. The whole summarization process needs to be done on the fly:
Does anyone have a solution that doesn't require a temporary SQL table/view/query, but is contained entirely within the data flow?
I am using VS 2017 and the KingswaySoft Dynamic CRM 365 ETL toolset to develop my solution/package.
Spit balling here as I don't Dynamics nor do I have the custom components.
Data Flow 1 - Contract aggregation
The purpose of this data flow is to replicate your logic in the elegant query you provided and shove that into a Cache Connection Manager (see Notes for 2008+ at the end)
KingswaySoft Dynamics Source -> Script Task -> Cache Transform
If you want to keep the sort in there, do it before the script task. The implementation I'll take with the Script Task is that it's fully blocking - that is all the rows must arrive before it can send any on. Tasks like the Merge Join are only partially blocking because the requirement of sorted data means that once you no longer have a match for the current item, you can send it on down the pipeline.
The Script Task is going to be asynchronous transformation. You'll have two output columns, your key accountid and your new derived column of ari_activecontractitems. That column will might need to be big - you'll know your data best but if it's a blob type in Dynamics (> 4k unicode or > 8k ascii characters) then you'll have to define the data type as DT_TEXT/DT_NTEXT
As inputs, you'll select accountid and ari_productsummary from your source.
The code should be pretty easy. We're going to accumulate the inbound data into a Dictionary.
// member variable
Dictionary<string, List<string>> accumulator;
The PreProcess method, we'll tack this in there to initialize our variable
// initialize in PreProcess method
accumulator = new Dictionary<string, List<string>>();
In the OnBufferRowSent (name approx)
// simulate the inbound queue
// row_id would be something like Rows.row_id
if (!accumulator.ContainsKey(row_id))
{
// Create an empty dictionary for our list
accumulator.Add(row_id, new List<string>());
}
// add it if we don't have it
if (!accumulator[row_id].Contains(invoice))
{
accumulator[row_id].Add(invoice);
}
Once you get the signal sent of no more data available, that's when you start buffering output data. The auto generated code will have placeholders for all this.
// This is how we shove data out the pipe
foreach(var kvp in accumulator)
{
// approximately thus
OutputBuffer1.AddRow();
OutputBuffer1.row_id = kvp.Key;
OutputBuffer1.ari_productsummary = string.Join("; ", kvp.Value);
}
We have an upcoming release that comes with a component that does exactly what you are trying to achieve without the need of writing custom code. The feature is currently under preview, please reach out to us for private access to the feature. You can find our contact information on our website.
UPDATE - June 5, 2020, we have made the components available for public access at https://www.kingswaysoft.com/products/ssis-productivity-pack/ as a result of our 2020 Release Wave 1. We have two components available that serve this kind of purpose. The Composition component will take input values and transform into a composite value in a SSIS column. The Decomposition component does the opposite, it would take an input value and split it into multiple rows using either delimiter-based text splitting or XML/JSON array splitting.

How to train watson on names entity or general string?

I need to train watson assistant on the following utterance, what is the order status of Bob/Jane or some name.
I tried with #sys-person but it does not recognize all names.
I defined an intent like this
what is order status of #name
and created entity #name as \b[A-Za-z0-9]\b
This is a good use for contextual entities. You can read up on those here:
Contextual Entities with IBM Watson Assistant
All about entities: Contextual entities with Watson Assistanthttps://medium.com/ibm-watson/all-about-entities-contextual-entities-with-watson-assistant-part-2-7697d2b73db0)
The idea is that you don't need your bot to know all possible names in advance, but instead it can recognize a name based on the context within an intent.
To set this up, you'd go to your order status intent and add some training examples such as:
what is the order status of Name
what is the order status of Another Name
what is the order status of Yet Another Name
(These examples can have any kind of name, whether fake or real.)
And then you'll annotate each of those to associate the name with the #name entity, by double-clicking on the name portion of the training examples (i.e. Name, Another Name, Yet Another Name) to bring up the entity selection UI and specifying your #name entity.
After Watson finishes training, you can test it in the "Try it out" window. Enter something like "what is the order status of Charles Flint" or "what is the order status of Thomas Watson" and you should see your #name entity matched. From there, you can access the name specified by the user with #name.value.
Hi JohnDon't wish to dismiss your entity pattern, however from experience I have seen its almost impossible to determine a complete list of people names. I use both #sys-person and my own #names entity which contains over 6,000 common names, and we are still adding missing values to the list. We also have a #bad_names list which contains names that match common words like; summer, cherry, star, cj, etc. By using both your intent or #sys-person or #names, etc in your condition you have a good chance to catch a high percent of the users messages.

Is there any Mql command to print the connection between two admin objects?

In Enovia Mql, if we want to print the details of a connection between a person and its company object what is the command. For Ex: Business objects can be explored using "Expand", similarly what is the way for Admin Objects?
I think we need some clarification on question as when you talk about "connection between a person and its company object" that means you are talking about business objects.
But for admin objects query is different.
I will try to answer both the questions.
A. Admin object query
print person PERSONNAME;
B. Business object information:
as you need all connection information below query will help you.
expand bus Person PERSONNAME - type Company select rel id attribute.value;
as we have mentioned "type Company" the expand will only consider connected Company type of objects.
"select rel" clause selects information from relationships.
You can add any selectable for relationship in above query.
also for more information on expand you can use following query in mql and check expand bus section.
help bus;
Please try to perform below query:
Print person XYZ selectable;
Thanks_Sachin
May be it would be good if you have mentioned specific admin object names.
As per current schema design admin objects are not connected in the way business object are connected. But admin objects are referenced/added to another admin object.
For example Attribute admin object is added to type object.
print type Part select attribute
Similarly type admin object is added into policy admin object.
Print policy Engineering selet type store format;
In above example we can see type ,store and format admin objects being referenced from policy.
Similar way each admin object is referenced/added to another admin object

When syncing my model within Invantive Control for Excel I get the error "Could not find parameter with name 'P_SCHEME_CODE'

When I try to synchronise my model retrieving GL Account Classification information from Exact Online, I get the following error:
itgensdf031: Could not find parameter with name 'P_SCHEME_CODE':
What should I change in order for this to work?
Related SQL query on Exact Online table GLAccountClassifications:
select division_code
, glclassification_code_attr
, glaccount_code_attr
from glaccountclassifications
where glaccountscheme_code_attr = :P_SCHEME_CODE
order
by glaccount_code_attr
, division_code
The query listed uses :P_SCHEME_CODE. For SQL this would work, but Invantive Control parses the query early to retrieve the list of fields from the metadata. It needs to know the parameters and find values for them in the Invantive Control list of parameters as defined in the Model Editor under "Parameters" in the tree.
In Invantive Control to use a parameter in a query you will need to use $P{P_SCHEME_CODE} instead of :P_SCHEME_CODE.
$P{P_SCHEME_CODE} can be inserted in a query by hand or by using Building Blocks drop down and then choosing a previously defined parameter.

ServiceNow - JSON Web Service, display related tables

I'm working on a C# program that retrieves data from a ServiceNow database and converts that data into C# .NET objects. I'm using the JSON Web Service to return my data in JSON format.
What I want to achieve is as follows: If there is a relational mapping between a value (for
example: I have a table called Company, where CEO is not a TEXT field but an sys_id to a Employee Table) I want to be able to output that data not with an sys_id (or just displaying the name property by using the 'displayvariable' parameter) but by an object displayed in JSON.
This means that the value of a property should be an object in JSON instead of just a single value.
A few examples:
// I don't want the JSON like this
{"Company":{"CEO":"b181e841c9212c008aeb36850331fab2"}}
// Or by displaying the name of the sys_id table
{"Company":{"CEO":"James Henderson" }}
// I want the data as follows, so I can have all the data I need inside a single JSON record.
{"Company":{"CEO":{"name":"James Henderson", "age":34, "sex":"male", "office":"SBN Left Floor 23"}}}
From reading the documentation I couldn't find anything in the JSON Web Service that allowed me to display the information like this nor
find any other alternative. It should have something to do with joining the tables and displaying it all in the right format.
I have been using SNC for almost three years and have not found you can automatically join tables in a web service. Your best option would be to use a scripted web service which possibly takes a query parameter and table parameter. Then you can json serialized your result as you see fit.
Or, another option would be to generate a new processor that will traverse the GlideRecord object. The ?JSON parameter you pass in to the URL is merely a flag to pass your request to a particular processor. Unfortunately the OOB one I believe is a Java class not a JS script, so you would need to write a script much like I mentioned earlier to traverse the object path serializing the object graph as far down as your want to go.
