DX API compliance guidelines

Updated on August 5, 2022

Ensure that your application is DX API-compliant, by learning about the appropriate design criteria.

Consider the following guidelines:

  • Harnesses must use a screen layout as the top container.
  • Ensure that you do not use circumstancing in harnesses and sections.
  • Visibility expressions must consist of When rule references only.
  • Sections should be auto-generated.
  • Sections should use one of the following layouts:
    • table
    • dynamic layout
    • repeating dynamic layout (not sourced from data pages)
    • embedded section
  • If a flow action uses editable pages (named pages, thread-level data pages or requestor-level data pages), edited values are not available in post-processing data transforms or activities. In such cases, use the pattern of auto-populated properties (which obtain data from data pages) and savable data pages in the post-processing of flow actions.
  • Ensure that you don't design your application for pessimistic locking. Your application's configuration is overridden to always use optimistic locking.
