Inspecting the Data Sources Definition File


This topic describes how to inspect the content of the datasources.xml file and the definition of the top-level entities and filter definition files for a given data source.

To inspect the data sources definition file

  1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the appropriate folder as shown, for example, in the following table.
    Product
    Navigate to:

    Siebel CRM

    CONFIG_PROJECTS_OP\appcfg_sync_80x\src\config

  2. Find and open the datasources.xml file using an XML editor or Notepad.

    The datasources.xml file defines one or more data sources with which you can perform a synchronization. For each data source definition, the following series of elements exists:

    • LoginURL. This element defines the Siebel CRM Server with which you can perform a synchronization. For more information, see the entry on LoginURL in Table 7 on SYS_DataSources.
    • ListOfEntitySyncRts. This element groups the top level entities or filter definition files to synchronize with, for example, Siebel CRM.
    • EntitySyncRt. Each of these elements defines a synchronization entity for the data source and maps the filter, XML file, to the Siebel CRM WSDL. For more information, see Table 9.
