I have a newmips app (on the Cloud) and I want to interact with my data. The only interaction I found in newMips was a data export to CSV or Excel (for the import I think I should go to the studio).
I need to display my data with the tools I developed on my web site (PHP).
Is there a CRUD (or at least a read) in a REST standard (or not)? Or is it possible to know the database connection that will give me access to my data tables ?
Newmips natively exposes REST API services on all entities managed.
To use it, you must define a client account (with role / group) in API credential menu of authentification module (use drop-down list on left of the editor to access it).
Documentation of your application API is auto-generated and can also be accessed in authentification module.
Note. There is no other tools yet available (except export features) to retrieve data.

We have multiple environments and it's via human manual input to insert the identity providers and clients when migrating up the environments.
Is there a way to isolate export/import of an identity provider or client? The manual input has brought in errors when migrating identity providers and clients up the environments.
Thank you.
Is there a way to isolate export/import of an identity provider or
client?
I have faced the same issue, to solved what I have done was to create a bunch of bash scripts based on the Rest Admin API. For instance:
Get the clients : GET /{realm}/clients
Create the clients : POST /{realm}/clients
First, I call the get endpoint, and export its response (i.e., the clients) into a .json that I later use as the payload for the post endpoint.
And the same logic applies to the identity providers. It is a bit cumbersome in the beginning to create those scripts, some of them I have already upload to the my repo (I plan to upload a bunch more of them), but after they are working the process gets smoother.
You can apply the same aforementioned logic, but instead of using bash scripts use the Keycloak Java API. The other option is to use Keycloak export Realm feature; export the realm, extract from the .json file all the content that you do not need, and use the remaining content afterwards with the import Realm feature.
I want to use the variants to customise different filter and table variants on a SAP Fiori application, that use SAP Hana Cloud and Java backend.
As a background info:
I'm using a smartTable that is connected to the smartFilter by filterId property. On the table/filter I am able to access directly the data from the metadata by filing the entitySet / entityType property. I am using a real server not a mock server. In the table the properties regarding the personalization and variants are enabled (useTablePersonalisation="true", useVariantManagement="true"). I see that I have to specify the persistencyKey so that variants can display on the UI, but i don't know what value should i complete it with.
I read that smartTable and smartFilter are using SmartVariantManagement(a custom control of VarinatManagement) to accessed directly (without user interaction) SAPUI5 Flexibility Services regarding personalization data and management of the variant. But on SAP Help it says that:
Flexibility services are currently not available in SAP Hana Cloud Platform.
The services run on the ABAP front-end server and NetWeaver 7.31 SP11 or higher
Here is the link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_hanaplatform/helpdata/en/a8/e55aa2f8bc4127923b20685a6d1621/frameset.htm
It is possible to use the variants and personalization?
How can I do it regardind my application specification?
Does anyone have an example application?
Thank you !
You can use them both at the same time.
For me the useTablePersonalisation="true" is working without any other changes. Rearding the useVariantManagement="true", I use showVariantManagement="true" also, and as you said persistencyKey="SmartFilter_Explored" is also needed to see Variant Management icon.
This is an example: https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/explored.html#/sample/sap.ui.comp.sample.smarttable/preview
For me I can not test the variant management functionality when running the app from webide as it is needed an existing user for you. So I can test it only, when running it on launchpad.
PersistencyKey identifies the storage area and saves/retrieves the variants currently used.
This page helps you with persistency key (under Page Variant section):

I hope it helped.
A question regarding the integration of the document management system Alfresco into Oracle Application Express (APEX) based on CMIs-repository:
The aim is to use APEX as the portal-page and Alfresco showing it's results (document lists) based on search parameters coming form APEX.
A search result from a CMIS-query should be displayed in an APEX page-region.
Unfortunately I have no experience in this sector (REST, CMIS) - so any advice would be welcome!
A related question regarding user authentication and authorization via CMIS does also arise.
Has anyone out there implemented something like this or used these components together, yet?
The first thing that pops into my mind is making the choice where you want your communication with the repository to take place: client side or server side?
Alfresco supports Web Scripts, so I would be possible to create a javascript-heavy thick client which connects to your repository, get information about your files and redirect to their download links.
The alternative would be to design some way to connect to the repository from the database server. Again there are many ways to do this. You can connect to the repository during your page load and use PL/SQL regions to fire scripts that connect to your repository, get the data you want, and render your region with that information.
Another way would be to periodically check the repository for changes, and maintain a 'shadow copy' of the repository within your oracle database tables.
Of course all of these solutions have their own drawbacks.
I'm building a web application that will have access to PeopleSoft's database via jdbc.
Is it possible that I can use PeopleSoft's id/password for my custom application, so users accessing my website will not have to have another username/password?
Peoplesoft stores user details in the table PSOPRDEFN.
You will be able to verify the username against: PSOPRDEFN.OPRID.
The password field is: OPERPSWD.
Unfortunately the encryption function used for this field: hash() is available only from within peoplecode.
If you want to use a single sign on you should be able to do so by customizing the USERMAINT.gbl component perhaps in the saveprechange peoplecode, to save the password in a second field of your choice with an encryption algorithm that you can implement from JDBC as well.
If you want to reuse PeopleSoft security, you'd need to connect at a higher level than JDBC straight into the database. You could look at a component interface (codeable in Java) or send a SOAP message into PeopleSofts Integration Gateway - both methods would authenticate you against peopleSoft using its own security mechanisms.
The old way was to customize psuser.c to your needs and recompile as a new dll, used it your program, assuming you're on a Microsoft platform. As mentioned above, you could have a peoplesoft developer create a component interface ( or use the one that is delivered ). You can export wrapper Java or C/C++ code from a CI, a template. This code can then be used in an external program to call the CI. one way or the other, you have to interface with peopletools to call their decrypt for passwords.
Depending on how dynamic your business is, whether you add lots of employees each day, you could export psoprdefn using app messaging to another database. On the send, you could encrypt passwords however you like. But as you can surmise, this would not be real-time.
One thing I remember doing long ago was have a peoplesoft tech person develop a page the sole functionality of which was to call my java class and which obtained user/pswds as needed. Once I had them, I was good to go.
You can use the psjoa.jar , in that way you can signon via app.server using the same users and passwords in the psoprdefn table.
PeopleSoft has an LDAP integration ability but it has to be configured. If you are accessing via a Java wrapper around a component interface, a special account can be set up in PeopleSoft with access only to the underlying component, but the login/password would have to be passed into the component interface. This can be encrypted or sent over https.
PeopleSoft also has what it calls "row level" security - the ability to partition data sets so that for example your code could only access employee data within a specific business unit or accounting info for a particular line of business. This is all controlled within the PeopleSoft online security application.
I have requirement to develop DMS(Document Managemen System) with some initial requirements:
If possible DMS should be open source
Initially DMS should support up to 500 users
System should be scalable in sence od users or content
Docuemtns/Content should be stored on a file system
Document should be able to be marked for later destruction
Mandatory to have workflow capabilities
Mandatory to have version control capability
Nice to have SSO(Single Sign On) with Liferay portal
Nice to have posibility to expose some of funccionality via portlets in Liferay
Document management should be done via the web interface
Nice to have shared drive capability
Nice to have events and notifications about add/change content
At the moment I am in doubth to choose between Alfresco and Nuxeo.
I will appreciate any help to choose between them.
Thanks in advance
I have not much experience with Nuxeo, but here is for Alfresco:
1.If possible DMS should be open source
Yes.
2.Initially DMS should support up to 500 users
Yes, if you have a good server.
3.System should be scalable in sence od users or content
Yes.
4.Docuemtns/Content should be stored on a file system
Yes. Only metadata is stored in a database.
5.Document should be able to be marked for later destruction
The free Records Management module has retention capabilities.
6.Mandatory to have workflow capabilities
Yes.
7.Mandatory to have version control capability
Yes.
8.Nice to have SSO(Single Sign On) with Liferay portal
Yes.
9.Nice to have posibility to expose some of funccionality via portlets in Liferay
Alfresco and Liferay work very well together.
10.Document management should be done via the web interface
Yes.
11.Nice to have shared drive capability
Yes.
12.Nice to have events and notifications about add/change content
Not sure about this one. The Share module has this feature, but not sure about the main DM application.
Don't know the Nuxeo system, but we are using Alfresco as a document storage and session server. We have our own GUI and only use it as a back-end system. So far we had no problems. Plus Alfresco has a nice REST interface which makes it easy to integrate into any existing system.
