Create Data
Endpoint
Endpoint: /data/_create
Method: POST
Request Structure
Body Parameters:
RequestInfo: Object containing request information.
ResourceDetails: Object containing the details of the resource to be created or validated.
type: Type of the resource (boundary, facility, user, boundaryWithTarget).
tenantId: Tenant identifier.
fileStoreId: File store identifier.
action: Action type (create or validate).
hierarchyType: Type of hierarchy.
campaignId: Campaign identifier.
additionalDetails: Additional details object (optional).
Response Structure
Success Response:
- ResponseInfo: Object containing response information.
- ResourceDetails: Array containing the detail objects of the created or validated resource.
Flow
Client Initiates Request: The client sends a createData request to the Project Factory Service.
Validation of Request: The Project Factory Service validates the request schema and the provided resource details.
Processing the Request:
If action is 'create':
Enrich resource details, set status to "data-accepted", and persist in DB.
Further creation process happens in the background.
After successful creation, set the status to 'completed' and persist resource details in DB.
If action is 'validate':
Enrich resource details, set the status to "validation-started", and persist in DB.
Further creation process happens in the background.
If file data is invalid, set the status to 'invalid' and persist in DB.
After successful creation, set the status to 'completed' and persist resource details in DB.
Fail case: If validation or creation fails, set the status to 'failed' and persist in DB with the error cause in additional details.
Response: The Project Factory Service sends the response back to the client containing the resource details and status.

Parsing Logic from sheet:
The getSheetData function retrieves and processes data from an Excel sheet, validating the structure according to the configuration provided in createAndSearchConfig. The key part of this process is the parseArrayConfig.parseLogic configuration, which specifies how to parse and validate the columns in the sheet. Here's a detailed explanation of how the function works, including the parsing logic:
Parsing Logic Using parseArrayConfig.parseLogic
The parseArrayConfig.parseLogic configuration specifies how each column in the sheet should be processed. Here's how the parsing logic works:
Column Configuration
Each column configuration specifies:
sheetColumn
: The column letter in the sheet.sheetColumnName
: The expected name of the column in the sheet.resultantPath
: The path where the value will be stored in the resultant JSON.type
: The expected type of the value (e.g., string, number, boolean).conversionCondition
: Optional conditions for converting values.
Validating Column Names
During the validation step, the function checks that the first-row value matches the expected column name.
Processing Rows
When mapping the rows to JSON, the function uses the resultantPath
to place the values in the correct location in the JSON object. It converts values according to the specified type
and conversionCondition
.
Example Conversion
For a column configuration with type: "boolean"
and conversionCondition
, the function would convert "Permanent" to true and "Temporary" to an empty string.
In summary, the getSheetData function retrieves and processes data from an Excel sheet, validating the structure and content according to the createAndSearchConfig configuration. The parseArrayConfig.parseLogic part of the configuration specifies how each column should be validated and processed into the resultant JSON format.
Search Data API
Endpoint
Endpoint: /data/_search
Method: POST
Request Structure
RequestInfo: Object containing request information.
SearchCriteria: Object containing search criteria.
id: (Optional) ID of the resource.
tenantId: Tenant identifier.
type: (Optional) Type of the resource (boundary, facility, user, boundaryWithTarget).
status: (Optional) Status of the resource.
Response Body Structure
ResponseInfo: Object containing response information.
ResourceDetails: Array containing the details object of the searched resource.
Flow
Client Request: Client sends a POST request to /data/_search.
Request Content: Includes RequestInfo and SearchCriteria.
Validation: Server validates request structure and content.
Response Creation: Server creates response with info and resource details.
Response Dispatch: Sends response back to client.
Error Handling: If errors occur, generates error response and sends it.

Generate Data API
Endpoint
Endpoint: /data/_generate
Method: POST
Request Structure
RequestInfo: Object containing request information.
Query Parameters:
type: Type of the resource for which data needs to be generated.
tenantId: Tenant identifier.
hierarchyType: Type of hierarchy.
forceUpdate: (Optional) Boolean indicating whether to force update existing data.
Response Structure
ResponseInfo: Object containing response information.
GeneratedResource: Array containing the details object of the generated resource.
Flow
Client Request: The client sends a POST request to /v1/data/_generate.
Request Validation: Upon receiving the request, the server validates the request structure and parameters.
Generate Data Process:
Validation: The server validates the generate request.
Data Processing:
Fetch Data: Fetches existing data from the database.
Modify Data: Modifies the retrieved data as necessary.
Generate New ID: Generates a new random ID and sets the file store ID to null.
Expire Old Data: Marks existing data status as expired.
Generate New Data: Generates new data based on the request parameters.
Update and Persist: Updates and persists the generate request along with the new data.
Force Update Logic:
If the forceUpdate parameter is set to true:
Search and Update: Searches for existing data of the specified type and updates the existing data information.
If the forceUpdate parameter is not provided or set to false:
Fetch Existing Data: Retrieves already persisted data from the database of the specified type.
Response Creation: After processing the request, the server creates a response containing the details of the generated resource.
Response Dispatch: The server sends the generated response back to the client.
Error Handling: If errors occur, generates an error response and sends it.

Data to Sheet Parsing Logic
Fetch Required Columns from MDMS:
Use
callMdmsData
to get type schema columns in the correct order.
Define Headers:
MDMS schema required columns are headers and ensures column orders.
Localise Headers:
Use
getLocalizedHeaders
withlocalizationMap
.
Localise Sheet Name:
Use
getLocalizedName
withlocalizationMap
and generate sheet.
Adding a New Column to the Generated Sheet
To add a new column to the Generated sheet, follow these steps:
Search Schema Details
Locate the type schema from the
HCM-ADMIN-CONSOLE.adminSchema
schema in the workbench.
Identify Column Type
Determine the column type based on the properties defined in the schema:
stringProperties
for string-based columns.numberProperties
for numeric-based columns.enumProperties
for enumerated columns.
Define New Column
Add the new column to the schema under the appropriate properties section:
String Column: Include attributes such as
name
,type
,maxLength
,minLength
,isUnique
,isRequired
,description
, andorderNumber
.Number Column: Include attributes such as
name
,type
,maximum
,minimum
,isRequired
,description
,orderNumber
, anderrorMessage
.Enum Column: Include attributes such as
name
,enum
,isRequired
,description
, andorderNumber
.
Ensure Column Uniqueness
Ensure that the
isUnique
property is correctly set for string columns to enforce uniqueness.
Column Visibility (Future Implementation)
Note that
hideColumn
andfreezeColumn
features will be implemented in the next version.
Sheet Data Validation:
This process is sufficient for validating the new column in the Generated sheet.
Column Change Reflection in APIs
If there's a need to reflect the column in APIs, follow these additional steps:
Update
createAndSearch.ts
FileModify the
createAndSearch.ts
file under the defined typeparseLogic
object.Integrate the new column into the appropriate data structures used for API operations.
Example :
sheetColumn: A
sheetColumnName: HCM_ADMIN_CONSOLE_FACILITY_CODE
resultantPath: id
type: string
Mapping: Data from column A (HCM_ADMIN_CONSOLE_FACILITY_CODE) in the sheet will be mapped to
id
in the API data.
By following these steps, you can successfully add and validate a new column in the Generated sheet and ensure its reflection in the associated APIs.
