  • 1.  Automation Engine bulk change

    Posted Oct 26, 2021 06:52 AM
    Hi all,

    We are using CA Automic Workload Automation - Automation Engine, Release 12.3
    and have a requirement to change 1000's of process flows that currently contain one particular FTP object.
    The new scenario would be that those existing FTP objects would be updated to a new DMZ FTP object and an additional extra object added
    to

    Is this something that would be possible to do in some kind of batch script?
    Is this something that Broadcom recommends?
    Is there a recommended process to do this? AE DB Change to a Transport Case perhaps? Or exporting via XML and making changes there?

    I raised a case and the feedback was...
    It may be possible to achieve this goal, by using the REST API feature. Importing json container with the updated definition of the target worflow with the POST method "/{client_id}​/folderobjects" will work, however working out the correct skeleton of the Json body will require to be familiar with this feature.

    If it's possible, does anyone have any thoughts on the best / most appropriate way to do this?
    Many thanks in advance
