Hi

Did someone experienced a workview external class based on a results of unity script ? i'm searching for the best practices, a quick steps guide or even a sample if possible ...

Thanks

Good afternoon,

Can you please provide a little more information about when you're looking for a script to run and what the inputs and outputs need to be? I'm not quite clear what this script needs to do.

Hello Rob,

My business case is to populate a specific Active Directory security group members using a workview external class and a unity script. In my environnement, I have no other way to access these data...so i'm searching for a solution that would fulfill this requirement

Are you attempting to use Active Directory information to create new Workview objects? Or are you attempting to create new Active Directory information from existing Workview objects?

If you're trying to create an external class that uses the IWorkViewGetExternalClassDataScript interface, there's two methods of interest on that class. OnWorkViewGetExternalObject has the WorkViewGetExternalObjectEventArgs that exposes an ExternalObject that you can populate with attributes with SetAttributeValue. OnWorkViewPopulateExternalFilterResults.WorkViewPopulateExternalFilterResultsEventArgs provides access to the filter through FilterQuery; you can create several external objects through CreateExternalObject() and add them to Results.
