GIAE functionality overview

This functionality allows export of data from agility to any text based file format (xml, comma separated value, html etc.). The export and import procedures can be run at defined intervals from the background process or manually. Additionally the export function can be defined as a monitor expression that will execute based upon a condition. It is also possible to publish the Import definition as web service and the export definition as a web service client. This functionality allows distribution of Agility data to other systems

Before you start

General Import and Export operates with web services at a very low level. In other words to exchange data you must understand SOAP protocol structure using properly setup http headers.

It is recommended that a ‘RequestTool’ is available for design, configuration and testing.

A Request tool is an application which will help process the test procedure. This tool helps to generate http request, and grabs the request result.

A Request Tool has been included in Agility and is available under the default Agility Admin menu:
