Partial project attributes are defaulted using Groovy script, but if necessary we can change behavior for customer implementation.
Step-by-step guide
Prepare SQL script as necessary and execute on FlexDeploy database.
Following example is for EBS projects, OTHER object type and TARGET_LOCATION attribute default script. Note FD_OBJECT_TYPE_OVERRIDES_EBS and OTHER_TARGET_LOCATION_DEFAULTSSCRIPT for DB Properties data. Basically FD_OBJECT_TYPE_OVERRIDES_<Project Type> and <Object Type_Code>_<Object Type Attribute Code>_DEFAULTSSCRIPT.
Other options are LISTDATA and VALIDATORSCRIPT, which also can be tweaked using same mechanism.
You can either wait for 10 minutes for changes to take effect or work with your Administrator to clear cache, see Admin Operations.
Once you prepare Groovy script, each ' needs to be replaced with '' (2 single quotes) in SQL statement.
Object Type Codes and Object Type Attribute Codes are listed in the EBS Object Types Reference Guide.
-- make sure to change DB_PROPERTIES_DATA_ID, DB_PROPERTIES_ID as appropriate.

Primary & Foreign Key
Primary keys FF.DB_PROPERTIES.DB_PROPERTIES_ID and FF.DB_PROPERTIES_DATA.DB_PROPERTIES_DATA_ID should begin at 8000 to avoid collision with FlexDeploy data.
Note that FF.DB_PROPERTIES_DATA.DB_PROPERTIES_ID is a foreign key to FF.DB_PROPERTIES.DB_PROPERTIES_ID
Following variables are available for use in the Groovy script along with Project Properties.
| Variable Name | Example using /path1/path2/APXSOBLX_1.rtf |
| FILE_PATH | /path1/path2/APXSOBLX_1.rtf |
| FILE_NAME | APXSOBLX_1 |
| FILE_PATH_PREFIX | /path1/path2 |
| FILE_EXTENSION | rtf |
| PARENT_FOLDER | path2 |
| FILE_CONTENT | File data |
| Project Properties - Code for each property can be used in script |
