Parameter Description

typename

The fully qualified typename of the requested UDR. For information about available UDR types, see APL - PCC Provisioning Plugins.

key

The unique identifier of the requested UDR.

Returns:

The matching UDR or null, if no matching UDR was found.

Example

drudr notification = pccGetData
("PCC.Routing.Provisioning.Routing_Details", "3");

will retrieve a UDR of the type PCC.Routing.Provisioning.Routing_Details with the key 3 .

pccListData

Retrieves a list with all the UDRs from the provisioning interface with the stated UDR type.

list<drudr> pccListData( string  typename  )

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`typename`	The fully qualified typename of the requested UDRs. For information about available UDR types, see APL - PCC Provisioning Plugins.
Returns:	A list containing all the UDRs of the requested type.

Example

list<drudr> notificationsList = pccListData
("PCC.Routing.Provisioning.Routing_Details");

will return a list named notificationsList with all the UDRs that have the type PCC.Routing.Provisioning.Routing_Details .

pccCreateData

This function inserts a new UDR through the provisioning interface.

drudr pccCreateData( drudr  udr  )

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`udr`	The new UDR to insert. For information about available UDR types, see APL - PCC Provisioning Plugins.
Returns:	The created UDR or null if there was an error.

Example

drudr created = pccCreateData(input);

will insert a new UDR named created through the provisioning interface.

pccUpdateData

This function updates a UDR through the provisioning interface.

drudr pccUpdateData( drudr  udr  )

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`udr`	The UDR to update. For information about available UDR types, see APL - PCC Provisioning Plugins.
Returns:	The updated UDR, specified in the argument, or null if there was an error.

Example

drudr udr = pccUpdateData(created);

will update the UDR named created through the provisioning interface.

pccDeleteData

This function deletes a UDR in the provisioning interface

drudr pccDeleteData( drudr  udr  )

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`udr`	The UDR to delete. For information about available UDR types, see APL - PCC Provisioning Plugins.
Returns:	The deleted UDR, specified by the argument, or null if there was an error.

Example

drudr udr = pccDeleteData(created);

will delete the UDR named created through the provisioning interface.

pccLastErrorCode

If any of the create, delete or update operations should fail, the error code can be retrieved with this method.

int pccLastErrorCode()

Return code	Explanation
200	Will be returned if the last operation was successful.
400	Will be returned if the object just created/updated is referring to one or more objects that are missing.
401	Will be returned if the delete operation failed because the object contains references from other objects.
402	This error code is only applicable for the pccCreateData function, and will be returned if the object already exists.
403	Will be returned if any of the functions pccGetData, pccUpdateData, or pccDeleteData are referring to a missing object.
500	Will be returned if there was an error trying to read/write to storage.

Example

int errorCode = pccLastErrorCode();

will return 500.

pccLastErrorMessage

If any of the create, delete or update operations should fail, a more detailed description of the error can be retrieved with this method.

string pccLastErrorMessage()

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Returns:	A description of the last error.

Example

If the last error code was 403,

string errorMsg = pccLastErrorMessage();

Example

pccSetProvisioningArea("TEST");

will set area TEST as working area for the workflow.

pccGetProvisioningArea

Retrieves the currently active area for the workflow.

string pccGetProvisioningArea()

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Returns:	The name of the currently active provisioning area.

Example

If the currently active area for the workflow is TEST,

string area = pccGetProvisioningArea();

will return "TEST".

pccCopyAreaData

Copies configurations from one area to another.

Warning!

This function will also clear the target area from all previous configurations before the new configurations are inserted.

string pccCopyAreaData
                    ( string  source ,
                      string  destination ,
