Table Of Contents
On Error Tab
For a description of the options on the On Error tab see "Using the On Error tab" on page88.
Miscellaneous Tab
The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.
It contains a text area (Task comments) that lets you write comments about the task. These
comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OK button and are displayed in the
Task Comments Pane.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
The tab also provides an option to highlight the task in "The Process area" on page769 with
the default color, set in the Preferences (see "General appearance preferences" on page659),
or the color selected or defined under Highlight color on this tab.
To revert the selected highlight color to the default color, open this tab, turn the Highlight option
off and close the dialog with the OK button; then turn highlighting back on.
Highlighting can also be turned on and off via the task's contextual menu and with the Highlight
button on the View ribbon.
Retrieve Items
The Retrieve Items Action task locates and extracts items from the OL Connect Database so
they can be used with further tasks. The items are retrieved using a set of conditions working
together. Since this task can retrieve items at any level, it can be used to generate Metadata
(see "Metadata" on page69) or JSON data used in multiple tasks.
Input
The task requires no input file, but any input information such as Metadata, Job Info variables or
a data file can be used to specify which items to retrieve.
Processing
The task requests the items on the OL Connect Server using the conditions set in the task
properties. Only the condition information and the returned Metadata or JSON are exchanged.
