JCA Resource Adapter form - Completing the MetaData tab

Updated on April 6, 2022

Use the MetaData tab to provide information about the capabilities of the resource adapter.

Note: Beginning in Pega Platform 8.6, EAR deployments of Pega Platform are deprecated. In the upcoming 8.7 release, EAR deployments will not be supported. As a result, in Pega Platform 8.7, JCA Resource Adapter data instances will also no longer be supported. For more information on the alternatives for EAR-related rules, see Deprecation of EAR deployments in Pega Platform 8.6.

Before completing this tab, complete the Connection and ConnectionSpec tabs. Then, use the Import Metadata button to retrieve from the resource adapter values for the fields on this tab.

FieldDescription

With Input Record Only When selected, signifies the resource adapter supports an Execute() method that takes the input record and the name of the InteractionSpec implementation Java class to use.
With Input and Output Record When selected, signifies the resource adapter supports an Execute() method that also takes a reference to an instantiated output record in addition to the input record and the name of the InteractionSpec implementation Java class to use.

A resource adapter can support both CCI Execute() methods. However, if both methods are supported, the Execute method that does not require the connector rule is used to instantiate the output record.
