Exchange Properties

In order to search for exchange properties from user interface pages an additional configuration is needed. This configuration provides the necessary metadata for the user interface to support the construction of the search request.

For example, to configure a searchable property with property name "searchableproperty" and character "C" data type, POST the following payload on generic resource /generic/exchangeproperties:

{
 "propertyName": "searchableproperty",
 "datatype": "C"
}

Alternative data types are number ("N") or date ("D").

For user interface page 'Exchange' to reflect this property the Floor plan of Exchange Search page and View Exchange are also required to be updated. For details on updating the floor plans refer to Developer Guide.

The index that facilitates searching Exchanges by properties is updated every 15 minutes. For a query to return the Exchange, the property values must be updated in the index. As a result, it could take 15 minutes to retrieve Exchanges by recently changed property values. Alternatively, use the transactionIdentifier1 and transactionIdentifier2 attributes of an Exchange for near real-time Exchange retrieval.
