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.
Words and Phrases
| 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. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Development procedure
Developing integrations with the SMIS SPI involves different steps for schedule-based and UI-based integrations.
Schedule-based integrations
To develop a schedule-based integration, perform the following tasks:
- Initialize global variables. See Initialize global variables.
- Develop an endpoint adapter and a Service Manager adapter. See Develope a source adapter and a destination adapter.
- Develop a manager. See Develope a manager.
- Develop a custom controller. See Develop a custom controller.
- SMIS provides a default controller. Determine if the default workflow suits the integration. If not, develop a custom controller.
- Register the integration as a template. See Register an integration template.
- Export the integration template into an unload file. See Export an integration template into an unload file.
UI-based integrations
To develop a UI-based integration, perform the following tasks:
- Initialize global variables. See Initialize global variables.
- Develop a manager. See Develope a manager.
- Implement UI controls. See Implement UI controls.
- Register the integration as a template. See Register an integration template.
- Export the integration template into an unload file. See Export an integration template into an unload file.
