Add Property

Adding a property to a Lookup involves defining its attributes and specifying whether it should be a key for the lookup. This process is like adding properties for entities or objects with a key attribute specific to lookups.

Steps to Add a Property

  1. Navigate to the Lookup Page

    • From the Secondary Left Panel, select the lookup to which you want to add a property.

    • The lookup page will display on the right side of the panel.

  2. Initiate the Property Creation Process

    • On the lookup page, locate the Actions Bar and click the "New Property" button to start adding a new property.

  3. Enter Property Details

    • A New Property Drawer will open to enter the property details:

      • Name

        • This should be a unique identifier for the property, between 2 to 100 characters long. Avoid using spaces or special characters.

        • Validation Rules:

          1. The name must be unique.

          2. The name length should be between 2 and 100 characters.

          3. The name cannot be empty.

          4. The name cannot include special characters.

          5. The name cannot include spaces.

      • Description (optional)

        • Descriptions should be between 0 and 400 characters long, detailing the purpose and usage of the property.

        • Validation Rules:

          1. The description length should be between 0 and 400 characters.

      • Type

        • Select the data type for the property. The available types are:

          • Text

          • Whole Number

          • Decimal

          • Date/Time

          • Boolean

          • Enum

          • File

          • Object

      • Key

        • Toggle this option to set the property as a key for the lookup. This key will be used to uniquely identify records in the lookup.

        • Note: If a property is already set as a key, the key option will be disabled for other properties.

      • Additional Attributes

        • Fill in any remaining attributes based on the selected type.

  4. Submit the Property

    • Click the Submit button to add the property to the lookup.

    • The new property will appear in the properties list under the Lookup page.

    • When a property is set as a key, a key icon will appear under the properties table to differentiate it from other properties.
