This operation will create a template connection plan file using all the connections found on the current OIC Target. This connection plan can be applied during the updateConnections, importIntegration, or partialDeploy operation.
Its purpose is to allow environment-specific properties to be replaced for connections prior to deployment. This prevents manual updates of the connections connection's artifacts between deployments to different environments.

Either FDOIC_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_CODE environment-instance property value or FDOIC_INP_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_CODE plugin input value should exist. When both exist, the plugin input value will take precedence. See Creating/Editing a Cloud Account and Provider for details on how to setup Cloud Account for OIC. |
Target Properties
Property Name | Property Code | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
OIC Account |
| No | The OIC account with all the required properties like Base URI, Username and Password for connecting to an OIC Instance. |
Inputs
Input Name | Input Code | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
OIC Account |
| No | The OIC account with all the required properties like Base URI, Username and Password for connecting to an OIC Instance. Typically, this will not be used because the value will come from the property FDOIC_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_CODE instead. |
Connection List | FDOIC_INP_CONNECTION_LIST | No | CSV list of connection ids to use during creation. Leave blank to create a connection plan for all connections on in the OIC environment. |
OIC Connection Plan File | FDOIC_INP_CONNECTION_PLAN | No | Optional input to specify a different connection plan file name. If not specified, it defaults to 'connectionPlan.properties'. An absolute path can be specified. Otherwise, the location is relative to the temp directory. |

Line Field | Description |
|---|---|
ConnectionId | The connectionId on the server. This is typically the connection name found in the UI with spaces replaced by underscores and in all caps. Example: Sample FTP Connection = SAMPLE_FTP_CONNECTION. |
connection|secure | Literal text of either 'connection' or 'secure' to indicate if it is a secure property or normal connection property. |
propertyDisplayName | This is the name of the property as seen in the UI. |
value | This can is the literal text or FD Properties. |

In the sample above we can see we are replacing the FTP Server Host on the SAMPLE_FTP_CONNECTION with ${{FD_OIC_FTP_HOST}}. This means that FD_OIC_FTP_HOST is configured as a FlexDeploy property (most likely an a Target property) and has a different value for each OIC environment we have. This allows us to dynamically set the FTP Server Host based on environment without ever changing our artifacts. The properties should be added to a deploy workflow that is used to deploy the integrations or update the connections. Then the workflow must be connected to the OIC target group using the topology screens.
