Customizingtheproject
AprojectisagreatstartingpointforbuildinganOLConnectsolution.Thispartexplainshowtomake
changestotheproject.
DoyouintendtoexpandtheprojectintoasolutionwhereWorkflowrunsonadifferentmachinethat
alsohasadifferentregionalsetting?ThenindicatethedesiredencodingintheDesignerpreferences
(see"SampleProjectdeploymentsettings"onpage802)beforeinstallingtheproject.
Input data
IfyouwanttoaddotherparameterstotheURLandusethosedatainthetemplate,here'showtodo
that:
1. Runtheproject,addmoreparameterstotheURLandlettheprocesssavetheinputdatatoafile
(see"Savinginputassampledata"onpage165).
2. Usethefiletocreateanewdatamappingconfigurationthatextractstheadditionaldata.(See
"Creatinganewdatamappingconfiguration"onpage200.)
3. SendthenewdatamappingconfigurationtoWorkflow(see"SendingfilestoWorkflow"on
page418).
4. OpentheWorkflowconfiguration,double-clicktheExecute Data Mappingtasktoopenitand
selectthenewdatamappingconfiguration.
5. Usethedatainthetemplate(see:"Personalizingcontent"onpage708),sendthenewtemplate
toWorkflowandselectitinthepropertiesoftheCreate Web Contenttask.
6. SendtheWorkflowconfigurationtotheserver(seeSavingandsendingaWorkflowConfiguration
inWorkflow'sOnlineHelp).
AlternativelyyoucoulduseinputdatafromaWebform.ThisisdemonstratedbyanotherSamplePro-
ject:.
Web page
Therearecountlesswaystomodifythetemplate.Youcouldaddtext,imagesandotherelements(see
"Contentelements"onpage566)andchangethelayout(see"Stylingandformatting"onpage671).
Inordertofurtherpersonalizethewebpage,openyourdatamappingconfiguration(orJSONdata,if
theinputdatawillbeinthatformat;see"AddingJSONsampledata"onpage720)andusethedata
fieldstopersonalizethepage.(See:"Personalizingcontent"onpage708.)
Tip: TheDesignercanhaveonedatamappingconfigurationandonetemplateopenatthesame
time.Usethetabsatthetopoftheworkspacetoswitchbetweenthetwo.Clickthesynchronize
buttonontheDataModelpanetomakesurethattheDataModelsarethesameinboth.
