        String getMasterDataSourceId()
        Returns the id of the source this master data definition and its entries is served from.
        Returns:
        the id of the source for this master data

      • getManagementCapabilities

        Map<String,​List<String>> getManagementCapabilities()
        Returns a map containing the capabilities for a management tool defined for this master data definition. The map contains group keys as the key and the list of capability (also named as identity link type) for that group. The information provided by this model are then used to create identity links for this master definition.
        Returns:
        the map containing the management capabilities of this master data definition mapped to groups
        See Also:
        for a list of available and supported types

      • getFilterParameters

        List<MasterDataFilterParameter> getFilterParameters()
        Returns an optional list of filter parameters needed when looking up entries based on this master data definition.
        Returns:
        the list of filter parameters available for this master data type or an empty list, if none available or needed

      • getDefaultLocale

        String getDefaultLocale()
        Returns the default locale used for resolving default entry names within this master data definition.
        Returns:
        the default locale for this master data definition

      • isSupportsNameFiltering

        boolean isSupportsNameFiltering()
        Returns true if this master data definition supports name filtering for master data entries or false if filtering for names should be done by the DataObjectRepositoryService instead. If this is a master data definition using an external system as its source, it might not support name filtering thus the filtering must be done at service level and cannot be done within the source.
        Returns:
        true if name filtering is supported by this definition, false if filtering should take place on service level

      • getKeyField

        String getKeyField()

      • getNameField

        String getNameField()
        Returns the name field name that can be used as a label for the master data instance

      • getVariables

        Map<String,​String> getVariables()
