AQS attribute

Store an AQS query​

An AQS attribute can store a single AQS query in JSON format.

Configuration​

When adding or editing an AQS attribute on a design/interface, you can configure the following properties:

The properties of an AQS attribute

  • Name * - enter a distinct name that clearly identifies the attribute.

  • Required - if enabled, the attribute will need to be populated with a value before the item can be saved. It can't be left blank!

  • Read-only - if enabled, the attribute can only be populated when creating items. It can't be edited later!

  • Unique - if enabled, the attribute won't accept a value that's already stored in the same attribute on another item of this design/interface.

  • Allowed query types - the attribute will only accept AQS queries that use one of the selected root nodes.

  • Design or interface - the attribute will only accept AQS queries that target the chosen design/interface.

  • Attributes - use the Pathfinder to select one or more attributes from the chosen design/interface. The attribute will only accept AQS queries that include these selected attributes.

  • Default value - use the AQS Builder to create an AQS query. If set, the attribute will automatically be populated with this, unless another value is entered.

  • Tags - use the Tag Manager to select a custom tag or relevant system tag.

Enter a value​

When creating or editing an item, select the attribute to build an AQS query using the AQS Builder.
