Table 7. Business object request handling features
Category | Feature | Support | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Create | Create verb | Partial | The connector converts the entire child object to an XML document to send to the URL. The top-level wrapper object is not sent, but the information contained in that object is used for routing and to determine the format of the message sent to the URL. |
Delete | Delete verb | No |
|
| Logical delete | N/A | The connector only converts business objects to XML documents and sends them to a URL; how they are processed is solely dependent on that URL. |
Exist | Exist verb | No |
