Adding a Source Code Adaptor with an Adaptor Link

The Adaptor link connects the adaptor to a project and connects application environment variables to the adaptor.

Before starting this task, create a project and an environment for the adaptor.

After completing this task, open the environment and provide real values for application environment variables if you have not already done so.

  1. Select Projects > Adaptor Links.
  2. Click Add Adaptor Link.
  3. At State, select the state:
    State Description
    Active Runs the adaptor code when the project runs.
    Inactive Skips the adaptor code when the project runs.
    Debug Runs the adaptor code only; skips the other steps when the project runs.
  4. At Adaptor, select the adaptor template. The list displays the adaptor templates installed with the Build Forge product.
  5. At Project, select the project. The list displays the projects not already linked to an adaptor.
  6. Click Save to link the adaptor to the project. The adaptor name is added to the list.
  7. At Environment, select the environment for the adaptor link.
  8. At Populate Environment, select Yes. The application environment variables in the adaptor template are added to the environment.
  9. Click Save to save the adaptor link.
