how open a soap session by using api token rather than efficy:logon xml tag ?

Thu, 24 Nov 2022 08:13:25 +0000

Hello I want to use the advantages of the API token authentification into à soap request rather than using the old body xml tag for a migration from 11.0 to 12.0 version.

So I generated a token into my designer, then I added into the header the
X-Efficy-ApiKey, X-Efficy-Customer and X-Efficy-Logoff = true like I already done for node connexion for instance.

The customer profile is unique into my url so didn't declare it.

Bug I'm not able to create the connexion to execute a soap query resquest.

So I have to continue to put all information
Any idea ?
What I missed ?

have you any postman exemple with a body using datacontainer operation="query" + connexion via token ?

Thank's

How to create a directory on the Efficy Server by workflow ?

Tue, 14 Jun 2022 13:27:30 +0000

Hi,

Actually, I can create a batch file launched by a Windows service each minute.
The content of this batch file is modified by workflow.
I would like to create this directory from the workflow without using the bacth file because I must be sure that the directory has been created before saving pdf files in it.
With the previous solution I must use a timeout before saving the files in the directory.
Any solution ?

how activate data-inline edit-columns for a native SQL result grid.

Fri, 11 Mar 2022 13:07:46 +0000

here a classical result query result made with wizard

<table class="data-grid grid-density-0" data-channel="entitylist/grid" data-entity="" data-recordcount="30" data-columnlist="N,K_USER,D_CREATE,K_ACTION,Sujet_de_l_action,K_CASE,Nom_de_l_incident,DURATION,K_ACTION_1,K_CASE_1" data-inlineedit-columns="1{NUMERIC},2{DATETIME},3{NUMERIC},4{},5{NUMERIC},6{},7{NUMERIC},8{NUMERIC},9{NUMERIC}" data-inlineedit-origins=",ACTIONS,ACTIONS,ACTIONS,ACTIONS,CASES,CASES,ACTIONS,ACTIONS,CASES" data-queryhandle="21">

<tr data-key="387650" class="" data-record-hash="77073465" data-inlineedit-row-origins="ACTIONS=387650,CASES=32709">

here the result with a native SQL

<table class="data-grid grid-density-0" data-channel="entitylist/grid" data-entity="" data-recordcount="1" data-columnlist="N,K_TIMESHEET,K_STEP,K_PROJECT,K_DOCUMENT,K_PUBLICATION,DOSSIER,PUBLICATION,BC/DEVIS,SUBJECT,WORK_ESTIMATED,WORK_UPDATED,PROGRESS,TOTALINVOICED" data-inlineedit-columns="" data-inlineedit-origins="" data-queryhandle="23">

<tr data-key="" class="" data-record-hash="-272002184" data-inlineedit-row-origins="">

All the options for inline edit are gone.
So is there any solution to have the same thing ?

Thank's

Efficy 11+, Export Excel of all columns for the executed query or queryview

Thu, 03 Feb 2022 15:50:06 +0000

Before Efficy 11, when exporting a query or a queryView to Excel, all the columns of the SQL query executed were exported.

With Efficy 11, the Export to Excel functionnality export only the displayed columns.

Is there a way to have the old behavior and export all columns of the SQL query even if there are not displayed?

FlexMail Synchro Exception "Query TimeOut"

Mon, 08 Feb 2021 16:22:03 +0000

For a customer with intensive use of FlexMail emailings, a query of the FlexMail synchro can lead to a timeout.

To avoid this, specify a user WITHOUT FULL ACCESS to run the synchro scheduled script !
Thanks to Alain Pegurri for the solution!

I've tried to find a simple explanation but I have no special skill to understand execution plans.
Would someone like to analyze them, I've stored some elements in the following submariners document

sql statement,
execution plans with (0<>0 or...) and without (1<>0 or...) security

The EXECUTE permission was denied on the EFFICYTEST server when i want to execute sql query as a user

Mon, 13 Jul 2020 15:05:42 +0000

I made a query to execute a sql native query when logged in as a normal user with native-sql execution rights.
With user admin no problem whatsoever.

The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object CUSTOM_KBVIP_CFO, database 'customerdatabase', schema 'ADMINXXXXXXXX'

Declare @KEY as INT = :companykey
SELECT IIF(ADMINXXXXXXXX.CUSTOM_KBVIP_CFO (@KEY) > '', 1, 0) AS RESULT.

On my localhost I had no problem executing native sql queries when logged in as the same user.

Anyone a clue?

P.S. I try to execute an SQL function.

Input parameters for native sql

Wed, 20 May 2020 13:45:31 +0000

Hello,

We have a native sql query that accepts a single parameter. This field is a lookup (custom field).

Using the option that a user can modify the input parameter, is there a way that this input is a drop down field in the selection screen? At this time, the user needs to put the specific value (key or value).

Environment: 11.2

Thank you!

Query on a new custom Entity does not have hyperlinks (based on the key) to display related record

Fri, 03 May 2019 07:52:49 +0000

Hi all,

for a customer I created a new entity (Brands), this basically works fine.

But now when creating a query on this new entity I did not have hyperlinks to display the related record (even I have selected the key in the query).

Did I missed something when creating the new Entity?

Any hint would be appreciated very much.

Thanks in advance and best regards

Date format from datepicker when running a query not correct

Mon, 25 Feb 2019 17:27:31 +0000

Hello,

A client with efficy 11.0.15626 is having a problem with their queries.

When launching a query the user must define a date as parameter. The datepicker formats the date with "-" as seperator but if this is used efficy returns an error. This should be "/".

(Bad Date Format in Query Parameter: '02-01-2019' is not a valid floating point value)

The date seperator hasn't been overridden is custom.js

What can be done about this? Any other settings?

GetField parameter to Query

Tue, 06 Dec 2016 13:34:08 +0000

Hello,

Can i send parameters to a query that is used in the getfield-tag?

F.e. <%GetField('AMM', query='AM', param1=<#K>')

Where testquery is a defined in a Runquery-tag.:

<%RunQuery(id=|AM|, store=|2|, SQL=|select 'test' as aa, SUM(F_TIME_SPENT_HOUR) as AMH,SUM(F_TIME_SPENT_MIN) as AMM from <#TABLE name='R_ACTI_PROD'> R_ACTI_PROD where R_ACTI_PROD.K_Action=:param1| %>

OWhen this is possible i can put the runquery in the listconsult.appo and the getfield in the agendalayout.
Or is there another way to do this? (using the K_Action as a parameter for the runquery that is defined in another file?)

K_Action in query in ListConsult.Appo

Tue, 06 Dec 2016 10:48:25 +0000

Hello,

I've written a runquery in the MacroListCustom.txt-file in the ListConsult.Appo
When i open the Agenda, the query is executed and i'm able to use the select-fields from the query (tried it with select 'test' as aa - and then show field aa with Getfield('aa', query=....)

How can i use the K_Actipon from an action in the parameters of the query so that the query-result is different for each action shown in the agenda.
See my Query below.

MANY thx.

ListConsult.Appo [
<%RunQuery(id=|AM|, store=|2|, SQL=|select SUM(F_TIME_SPENT_HOUR) as AMH,SUM(F_TIME_SPENT_MIN) as AMM from <#TABLE name='R_ACTI_PROD'> R_ACTI_PROD where R_ACTI_PROD.K_Action=:param1|, **PARAM1="%%Evaluate(|<%GetArgument('K_Action')%>|)"%**>
<%OnArgument(ArgValue="%%GetStoredParam('_ viewkind')", then="<%Macro('AgendaVisual')%>",
else="<%Macro('AgendaText')%>")%>
<%Macro('TaskPreview')%><%Macro("ContextMenu")%>].

mass delete based on query results

Thu, 13 Oct 2016 08:41:45 +0000

In efficy you can do mass-updates but I'm looking for the way to do a mass-delete based on a query. Does anyone know how/where this can be done?
e.g. I would like to delete all deceased contacts at once ;-)

2012 - link contacts to publication via query - limit 500

Thu, 21 Apr 2016 12:26:08 +0000

Hi all,

in the query result efficy returns only 500 records per default. So if I use a query with 600 results the last 100 contacts are not shown in the list.

Overriding this default settings by adding the attribute MaxGridRows=800 to the GetQueryResultGrid in QueryResult.htm didn't work with 2012, though this works well for 2014.

<%GetQueryResultGrid(templategen="GridQueryResult.htm", MaxGridRows=800)%>

How can this be solved with 2012?

Thanks
Andreas
