Connect two Embedded Component

[#1]

Hi,

I created two EC for different business object ( each have another Deployment Unit ) is it possible to connect them ? I know how to get access to each Business Object but i don't know how to get access to their Embedded Component. Or it is something like XBO that i can see this in debug mode as association (in this case).

Regards,
Jakub

Hi Jakub,

what do mean with "connect two embedded components"? On the UI level the deployment units do not matter. They do on code level (ABSL scripts) when you try to write something - reading should always be possible. Have you had a look at inports and outports? These are used to transfer data from one UI component (such as an EC) to another one.

Hi,

I try to read value from the one EC to another e.g. I have the "TASK" UI:

and i have the "Ticket" UI:

In each screen i added custom EC with 5 fields. Now I want to copy the value from task EC to ticket EC.

Should i create outport in one of them with these 5 fields and the ID/UUID field and create some event to start this?

I create outport in one EC and inport in the other one, but how to connect them ? wehn i add Ec to stanard UI i can only connect with outports this screen. I search for any event which should do this, but i didnt finde.

Or i must create internal web service to conect this two EC in other deployment unit.

Any sugestion?

Hi Jakub,

you can use inports and outports for this scenario in combination with local events. Please refer to section 5.8.3.2 in the studio guide, where a example use case is described including such configurations.
