This operation unzips artifact from csvExport, start import process for all Setup Task CSV Packages to target environment, and waits for completion. The csvImport operation can only be used with a FlexDeploy package-based project of type Oracle SaaS FSM.

Artifact contains zero or more zipped Setup Task CSV packages.

As of versions 6.5.0.20, 7.0.0.11, 8.0.0.6, and 9.0.0.0, this operation imports some files as JSON (Lookups, ValueSet) and others as CSV. Both formats can be successfully uploaded by the import operation.

Description

Oracle SaaS FSM Account

FDFSM_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_CODE

No*

Oracle SaaS FSM Account will be required on either the plugin input or Target. If a value is set on both then, the plugin input will take precedence.

See Special Considerations below for instructions on how to create Oracle SaaS FSM account.

Oracle SaaS FSM ChromeDriver Path

FDFSM_CHROME_DRIVER_PATH

No*

Location of the chromedriver executable. I.E. /usr/local/bin/chromedriver or C:/Users/user/Documents/chromedriver.exe. This is only used if FDFSM_INP_COMPILE_FORMULAS is enabled and the api call to compile the fast formula returns a 403.

See Special Considerations below for instructions on how to download install google chrome and download chromedriver.

Inputs

Input Name	Input Code	Required	Description

Input Name	Input Code	Required	Description
Oracle SaaS FSM Account	`FDFSM_INP_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_CODE`	No*	Oracle SaaS FSM Account will be required on either the plugin input or Target. If a value is set on both then, the plugin input will take precedence. See Special Considerations below for instructions on how to create Oracle SaaS FSM account.
API Timeout	`FDFSM_INP_TIMEOUT`	No	Maximum amount of time (seconds) to wait for import process to complete after it is started. Defaults to 900 seconds (15 minutes).
Compile Fast Formulas	`FDFSM_INP_COMPILE_FORMULAS`	No	Enable compile fast formula after successful import. Applicable to packages containing one more fast formulas. Defaults to true. See special considerations section for additional Chrome browser dependency.
Use SOAP Compilation	`FDFSM_INP_USE_SOAP_COMPILATION`	No	Compiling Fast Formulas defaults to using REST apis and falls back to Selenium. Check this to use SOAP instead. Different roles and permissions are needed in each case. If getting a 403, try the other option, or fall back to Selenium option. Selenium fall back is not used if this is checked.
Compile Formula UI Timeout	`FDFSM_INP_COMPILE_FORMULAS_UI_TIMEOUT`	No	Maximum amount of time (seconds) to wait for Compile Formula payroll flow to complete. Defaults to 300 seconds (5 minutes).
Remote Allow Origins	`FDFSM_INP_REMOTE_ALLOW_ORIGINS`	No	The value of remote-allow-origins on the Selenium ChromeDriver. Set the value to "*" or specific URL if there are ConnectionFailedException errors during compilation of a Fast Formula. Using Google-Chrome version v111+ you may be experiencing an error like the below when compiling a fast formula through Selenium Chrome driver: `org.openqa.selenium.remote.http.ConnectionFailedException: Unable to establish websocket connection to http://localhost:49877/devtools/browser/3a3af47d-732a-4337-a91c-18c8ced545cd`
Save Import Result File	`FDFSM_INP_SAVE_IMPORT_RESULT_FILE`	No	Saves a comparison result file to the reports directory as a JSON file. The JSON file provides a summary of the comparison process and represents the table shown in the Comparison Details section of the user interface.
Save Import Report File	`FDFSM_INP_SAVE_IMPORT_REPORT_FILE`	No	Saves a comparison report file to the report's directory as a HTML file. The HTML file provides comparison reports for each of the business objects that were processed. For each business object, a report each for Only in Configuration 1, In Both with Mismatch, and Only in Configuration 2, as applicable is provided.
Save Import Summary Report File	`FDFSM_INP_SAVE_IMPORT_SUMMARY_REPORT_FILE`	No	Saves a comparison report file to the report's directory as a HTML file. The HTML file provides a summary of the process results, which displays a list of all the processed business objects, and whether their processing completed successfully, or with errors.

Endpoint Execution

This operation will execute on any one of the selected endpoints and will be random in the determination of which one.

Special Considerations

Oracle SaaS FSM Account*

Before using this plugin operation, navigate to Topology → Integrations → Cloud, then create an account with provider OracleFSM for each one of your SaaS environments. This account will store the URL and credentials to make HTTPS requests to your SaaS environment. The account will be reusable by all Oracle SaaS FSM Plugin operations. All fields shown are required.

Compile Fast Formulas - Chrome Browser Dependency

If FDFSM_INP_COMPILE_FORMULAS is enabled, then compile is attempted for each Fast Formula object in the package. First, the Oracle APIs to compile are used. If that fails with a 403, the plugin can make a second attempt using a headless Chrome browser run through Selenium to compile from the Oracle SaaS UI. In the latter case Google Chrome and the chromedriver must be installed on the endpoint. If the endpoint is localhost then, Chrome and chromedriver should be installed on the FlexDeploy server. See the below for detailed instructions to install Google Chrome in an Unix environment. Windows install is not covered in the following.

Google Chrome Install

// (Option 1) With yum for RedHat-based Linux Distributions i.e. AlmaLinux, CentOS, Fedora, RedHat, Rocky Linux
yum -y install google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm

// If you get cannot open rpm error (Can not load RPM file: google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm) you can instead just download the rpm itself and then install with the file
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
yum install ./google-chrome-stable_current_*.rpm

// If you run into errors you may need to clear the yum cache or update yum
yum clean all
rm -r /var/cache/yum
yum -y update

// If you get error like 'Invalid configuration value: failovermethod=priority in /etc/yum.repos.d/nodesource-el8.repo; Configuration: OptionBinding with id "failovermethod" does not exist'
// Go to /etc/yum.repos.d/nodesource-el8.repo and comment out the 'failovermethod' entries
cat /etc/yum.repos.d/nodesource-el8.repo

// (Option 2) With dpkg
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

Test Google Chrome installation

google-chrome &

Chromedriver Install

Download the chromedriver from Downloads | ChromeDriver | Chrome for Developers which is supported for the google chrome version installed on your endpoint. Linux, mac, and windows binaries are available. Where you store the chromedriver executable should set on target property Oracle SaaS FSM ChromeDriver Path.

FSM Setup Task Import Reports

CSVImport can generate additional reports and log files which are viewable and downloadable from workflow execution → reports tab. The .log file will always be a generated report. Keep in mind, the contents of the .log file will also be outputted to the plugin log file. Additional reports that can be generated include:

<TASK_CODE>_ProcessResultsSummaryReport_<EXPORT_DATE_TIME>.html - A high level overview of the number of objects exported and the execution time
<TASK_CODE>_ProcessResultsReport_<EXPORT_DATE_TIME>.html - A high level overview of the objects imported by business object and the execution time for each
<TASK_CODE>_ProcessResult _<EXPORT_DATE_TIME>.json - The response body from the Import API after export has completed. This is generally not used but provided regardless.

To include any of the additional reports, you must enable those in the csvImport workflow operation.

Example reports:
