Copying API Functions

It is possible to select an existing API function and create a copy of it as a new record. This can expedite setting up new API functions that share many of the same values and parameters as an existing function; in such a scenario, you can copy the existing function to a new record, then make any necessary modifications.

To copy an API function

  • With the relevant API function selected on the API Functions page, choose the Actions ribbon, then the Copy API Function action.
  • On the Copy Function page, enter or use the AssistButton in the Target API Set Code field to select the API set that will contain the new function.
  • In the Target Function Code field, enter a code to identify the new API function as unique.
  • On the Data To Copy FastTab, choose the types of data from the source API function that you want to copy to the new record.
  • Choose the OK button.

A new API function is created from the selected source function.
