Summary of Data Service API Methods and Sample Workflows
A set of sample workflows, whose names begin with PDS, are examples of how to call the Product Data Service API methods and how to parameterize inputs. Though these workflows are shipped with the product, they are meant as examples of how to create your own workflows that use the Product Data Service API, and they are not meant to be used directly. The inputs and outputs of the Product Data Service API methods are all in the format of the Siebel property set, which can be converted to and from xml files using Siebel EAI. The hierarchy in the output property set is controlled by the Integration Object specified in the input Siebel message. Table 38 summarizes the Product Data Service APIs, the methods in each API, and the sample workflow that calls each method. One of the sample workflows is described in PDS PublishCatalog Test Sample Workflow. After reading this topic, examine the other sample workflows in the product to see how all of the methods are used.
