Service SAP form - Completing the Create, Save As, or Specialization form

Updated on April 6, 2022

Important: Service SAP rules are no longer being actively developed, and are being considered for deprecation in upcoming releases. Using Service SAP rules does not follow Pega development best practices. Use Service SOAP rules instead. For more information, see Service SOAP rules.

Create a Service SAP rule by selecting Service SAP from the Integration-Services category.

Note: Create a Service Package data instance before creating a Service SAP rule; the name of the Service Package data instance is the first key part of a collection of Service SAP rules.

A Service SAP rule has three key parts. The class and method name key parts are considered "external" and are unrelated to Pega Platform classes and methods, for flexibility. For example, a service that is already exported and deployed on a client computer may be changed to call a different Pega Platform activity. Because the external representation and the WSDL file hasn't changed, you do not need to redeploy and modify the application code on the client computer.

FieldDescription
Customer Package NameSelect the name of the service package (instance of the Data-Admin-ServicePackage class); this package groups related Service SAP rules. Choose a name already defined through a Service Package data instance. See About Service Package data instances.
Customer Class NameEnter a class name to logically group related methods. This name need not match the Pega Platform class that the activity belongs to, but must be a valid Java identifier. See How to enter a Java identifier.
IdentifierEnter an identifier that describes the function of the Pega Platform activity that the service calls. See How to enter a Java identifier.
