Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.

Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |

Lifecycle Action Selection Wizard for Component Templates
Use the action selection wizard to create or edit an action for the selected lifecycle phase.
To add Operations Orchestration flows, see the "Import Operations Orchestration Flows" section in the Cloud Service Automation Configuration Guide for more information.
Required parameters are indicated with an asterisk. If you don't define a value, then you will see a warning message that explains possible issues but you can still apply the change.
Tasks
-
Select an action — Search for flows or actions by name (when searching for a flow, the folders searched in the Operations Orchestration library are determined by a property configured in the
csa.properties
file; see the "Action Selection Wizard" property description section in the Cloud Service Automation Configuration Guide for more information) or select the process engine from which to select a flow or action. Then, locate and select the flow or action. See Lifecycle action internal actions for a list of internal actions. This task is only available when you create an action. -
Configure an action — You can configure the following properties for an action:
Item Description Process Engine Read-only. The container of the flow or internal action. Locator Read-only. The location of the flow or internal action. Display Name The name you provide for the action. Description The description you provide for the action. Execution Properties Specify the following:
- Fail on Error - If selected, provisioning or de-provisioning will stop if the action fails. By default, Fail on Error is not selected for actions created in the Un-deploying, Un-reserving, and Un-initializing stages.
- Error on Timeout - If selected, provisioning or de-provisioning will stop if the time to execute the action exceeds the timeout value, configured below.
Timeout (seconds) The amount of time to wait for the action to complete. Set this field to zero (0) if you do not want the action to time out. Note that this creates the potential of an action not finishing, which may cause the underlying subscription to remain in the Pending state. -
Configure parameters — Configure the input parameters whose values are passed to the flow or internal action prior to invoking the action.
Click Auto-Configure to automatically map any parameter that is not mapped to a corresponding property. If a matching property does not exist, it is created.
Click the gear icon next to a parameter and select Delete Mapping to delete a property mapping.
Click the gear icon next to a parameter and select Auto-Select Property for Mapping to automatically create a property mapping. If no matching property is found, it is created.
Click the gear icon next to the parameter you want to configure and select Edit Mapping. From the Edit Parameter Mapping dialog, edit the name, display name, description, and mapping type of the parameter.
Select one of the following mapping types:
- Manage Scripts: To add, download, edit, or delete scripts, click Manage Scripts. For more information on Manage Scripts, see Manage Scripts.
- Configure Parameters: To configure the parameters that should be supplied when running the selected script, click Configure Parameters. For more information on Configure Parameters, see Configure Parameters for Input Validation.
- Manage Scripts: To add, download, edit, or delete scripts, click Manage Scripts. For more information on Manage Scripts, see Manage Scripts.
- Configure Parameters: To configure the parameters that should be supplied when running the selected script, click Configure Parameters. For more information on Configure Parameters, see Configure Parameters for Dynamic Entry List.
When either Prompt User or Prompt User List are selected, you can optionally select an Input Validation script. This script will be run to validate the user supplied value for this user operation parameter in the Marketplace Portal.
You can manage the available set of Input Validation scripts, and configure parameters to the selected script, using the Manage Scripts and Configure Parameters links:
When Prompt User List is selected, you can configure a Static Entry list or click Switch to Dynamic Entry to select a script. When a script is selected, it will determine the values that should be presented to a user for this user operation parameter in the Marketplace Portal.
You can manage the available set of Dynamic Entry scripts, and configure parameters to the selected script, using the Manage Scripts and Configure Parameters links:
