Export Application Parameters

If you are an administrator user of third-party software, you can define Applications using CA Workload Automation DE and export the parameters to an XML file. Users of the software can use these parameters to interface with the product.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the Application in the Define perspective.

   The Application appears in the workspace.

2. Right-click the Application in the Application Workspace view, and select Export Application Parameters from the pop-up menu.

   The Export Application Parameter dialog opens and lists the parameters extracted from the Application definition.

3. (Optional) Type in descriptions for all of the parameters if you are exporting them for the first time, or alternatively do the following:
   • Click Load Descriptions from Existing File to load the parameter descriptions that you specified during the previous export. Browse and select the XML file that contains the descriptions.
   • Type in descriptions for only the new parameters that were not included in the previous export.
4. Click Export as XML.

   The Save As dialog opens.

5. Choose the default name or enter a name for the XML file and click Save.

   By default, the name of the XML file is application_name_params.xml, where application_name is the name of the Application.

   The Application parameters are exported.
