The writeSavedFilter() method in the WebCatalogService service writes a filter to the Web Catalog.

Description of Parameters in the writeSavedFilter() Method

The writeSavedFilter() method parameters are described in the following table.

Parameter
Description

CatalogObject object

The filter object to write to the Web Catalog, supplied in the CatalogObject structure. For information about the CatalogObject structure, see Specifying Information for a Web Catalog Object Using the CatalogObject Structure in the Siebel Analytics Web SOAP API.

All fields of object.itemInfo are ignored, except for the array of item properties, which are applied to the object. The signature of the resulting document is always savedfilteritem1.

String path

The location in the Web Catalog where the filter should be written.

Boolean resolveLinks

A Boolean value, 1 (true) or 0 (false).

When set to true, and the path in the Web Catalog refers to a link, the filter is written to the location pointed to by the link.

Boolean allowOverwrite

A Boolean value, 1 (true) or 0 (false).

When set to true, if the filter already exists in the Web Catalog, it will be overwritten.

When set to false, if the filter already exists in the Web Catalog, it will not be overwritten.

String sessionID

A character string that contains the session ID.

The session ID is usually returned by the logon call. If the SOAP client engine can handle HTTP cookies, you can omit the session ID or set it to null.
