I am new to MDM and i would need some walk through on how to develop an application in java that can retrieve records and workflow data from the MDM repository using the current Java api.
Thank you for the links which are really very helpful. Using them i could develop on manipulating the records but i would also like to know how to search and delete the workflow task jobs.
Because if a record is stored in the workflow task we cannot delete it due this dependency. So i also need the coding style for workflow tasks.
I am not quite sure that we can delete the tasks present in the Workflow but this doc will tell you the commands that you can use for deleting, modifying, retrieving, creating etc.
You can use the class RemoveRecordsFromWorkflowJobCommand -- to remove the records that is assigned to a workflow. -- input is workflowJobId.
RetrieveWorkflowTaskActionsCommand --- to search for workflow task.
You can refer to com.sap.mdm.workflow.commands and com.sap.mdm.workflow classes.. for different options of create, search and delete of workflow records.
DeleteWorkflowtaskCommand is used to delete the workflow which needs the setJobId as a required parameter. Once you have set this paramater use Execute command to delete the workflow task.
RetrieveWorkflowByIdCommand can be used to search the workflow task.
Sorry it was my mistake for deleting the workflow, API available is DeleteWorkflowJobCommand and you cannot delete the record present in the workflow, so in order to remove the records from the workflow you have to use the RemoveRecordsFromWorkflowJobCommand API that needs WorkflowJobId as the required parameter.
Thanks a lot i can now retriev and also delete the tasks along with the records assigned to that tasks.
Now i would like to seek your help in second scenario where we have a UWL iview in which the table shows the columns like task name, job id, created by..........and so on. Now i want to fetch jobid column value from this webdynpro iview and pass it to my java application.
This can be achieved using EPCF eventing. We have discussed this requirement in the below threat. Also you can refer the code posted in my reply. You will surely get your requirement fulfilled.
I have a different problem occuring now. When i deploy my application on the sandbox server it working perfect. But when i am deploying it back on dev server it throws this exception:
com.sap.mdm.commands.CommandException: com.sap.mdm.internal.protocol.manual.ServerException: The specified MDM repository was not found on the server
at com.sap.mdm.commands.GetRepositoryRegionListCommand.execute(GetRepositoryRegionListCommand.java:96)
at com.amat.mdm.MDMDelete.main(MDMDelete.java:135)
Caused by: com.sap.mdm.internal.protocol.manual.ServerException: The specified MDM repository was not found on the server
at com.sap.mdm.internal.protocol.manual.AbstractProtocolCommand.execute(AbstractProtocolCommand.java:112)

Can anyone give me solution how to resolve this error.
This error specifies that for creating connection through API 2 . you are mentioning incorrect parameters for the Development Server. Might be you would have hardcoded the values for the Sandbox MDM Server and running the same on Development Server.
