Description
By default, a templated create request will return an existing element if it matches the template element with the replacement attributes and placeholder properties replaced. If replacementProperties and placeholderProperties are both null, the createMetadataElementWithTemplate returns the template - since no attribute values have been changed. This is confusing so the request now throws InvalidParameterException if replacementProperties and placeholderProperties are both null. For example:
In addition, replacementAttributes can now be expressed as bean properties as well as the generic ElementProperties. This makes it consistent with other properties in the API such as
propertiesandparentRelationshipProperties. This means that a request like this is properly intereptedRelated Issue(s)
Removed initialStatus from NewElementRequestBody. This is the final change to remove the control of instanceStaces outside of the open metadata repositories.
