hi,

I try to make this conversion. I made it within a Java service and it works well.
But, can you tell me how you would do that with a Service Flow (and/or with the help of the existing documentToDocumentList service) please ?

Input :
customer

• id
• name

Output :
customer[0]

• id
• name

if Input is already a list, the task make nothing and leave the list as it.

Regards

Hi,

Really no idea on how to do that without a java service ?

Make a branch, check for customer[0]/id (this is a check whether you already have a list as input).

If it’s not NULL, do nothing.

If it’s NULL, do an explicit mapping from the customer object to a temp. doc list. Then drop the customer doc, then map the temp. doc list as the doc list “customer”.

Thanks, but i would hope doing that without a branch tests…
In a more generic way, just with an existing function webMethods service…
Because the Java service I’ve created is really simple, I would think such a service already exists… is it not the case?

I don’t think such a service exists. I assume, in your java service you also use some kind of “if”. Why is a branch a problem for you? Once you’ve implemented the service noone will know or will be interested in how it works. The important thing is that it “just works.”

Yes, you’re right
Thanks for your help

If you input is a list, did you try loop over and then pass through. As per the BIS, A document containing these three keys:

Key Value
cx_timeout 1000
cx_max 2500
cx_min 10

Would be converted to a document list containing these three documents:

pName cx_timeout
pValue 1000

pName cx_max
pValue 2500

pName cx_min
pValue 10

Thanks M@he$h, I kept my java service and all work well.
