Purpose

XXXXXXXXX Need to update for PROJ-577 work on Data Transformation epic XXXXXXXXXXXXA model rule defines one or more initial properties and property values for instances of one class. A model can be applied to a new empty page of that class to set many property values in one processing step.

Using a model, rather than setting the property values one-by-one in an activity, improves runtime performance. Using a model also speeds development, because you can set values for many properties quickly.

Where referenced

Several methods operate on pages and use a model rule, including the Apply-Model, Page-New, Page-Copy, and Page-Change-Class methods.

Starter flow rules — flow rules that create work objects — use a model rule for a Work- class to set initial properties for the work object.

Connector rules and other rule types that create clipboard pages use model rules.

Access

Use the Application Explorer to access model rules that apply to the work types in your application. Use the Rules Explorer to list all model rules available to you.
