       2.      You have disabled service local persistency.

       3.      You have created at least one entity service custom key.

See: Rules for Service Mapping

Procedure

...

       1.      In the Service Explorer, double-click on entity service you want to use.

       2.      Select the Data Source tab page.

You can see a table on the top of the window, containing the following columns:

○     Entity service operations

○     External operations

The following operations are in the Entity service operations column:

○     default CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations

○     operations created by user

       3.      Select an entity service operation to map an external operation to.

       4.      Choose  with the quick info text Browse in the table row.

A tree list appears, which includes all imported external services and the operations available for each service.

       5.      Select the operation you want to map and choose OK.

 

Select the proper external operations.

For example, the operation getUserInfo is more likely to be mapped to a read operation than to create operation.

The external service appears on the right side.

You can see all input and output parameters arranged hierarchal for both the external and entity services operations.

       6.      Map operations parameters to finish operation mapping.
