Adding validate rules to the allow list for offline use
Improve the user experience and test properties and pages input values of the offline-enabled application against defined conditions by adding a validate rule to the list of offline-supported validate rules. You can use these rules in custom JavaScript code.
A validate rule in an offline-enabled application that is not referenced by a flow rule in the user interface is not packaged, by default. To package additional validate rules for offline use in JavaScript custom code, you must explicitly add validate rule definitions to the pyValidateWhitelistForOffline rule as either the pxInsName string of the validate rule or, if you need to add multiple validate rules, a list of pxInsName strings, each separated by a new line.
The pxInsName string consists of the name of the validate class appended
to the validate rule name, separated by an exclamation mark (!). For example, if the class
name for the validate rule is MY-VR-SAMPLE-WORK-MYCASE
and the validate
rule is called SampleVR, the pxInsName string for this
validate rule is: MY-VR-SAMPLE-WORK-MYCASE!SampleVR
To add validate rules to the list of offline-supported validate rules, perform the following steps:
- In the header of Dev Studio, click .
- In the Whitelist section, on the validate rules line, click Modify whitelist to open the pyValidateWhitelistForOffline rule.
- Verify that the pyValidateWhitelistForOffline rule that you are
editing belongs to the
@baseclass
class. - In the HTML source text area, enter either the pxInsName string for a validate rule or a list of pxInsName strings for the validate rules, with each entry separated by a new line.
- Click Save.
