Component Templates

Boomi Integration Component Templates

Use a Component Template to create one or more components from a template.

Templating extends the Smart Copy functionality by supporting placeholder variables in your components which will be replaced during Smart Copy

A Component Template is a set of components.

A Template Component may contain placeholders, like ${ProcessName} or ${API.Service}.

A JSON Profile with placeholders

Placeholders are replaced in the newly create component instance - after the original component was copied - by looking up a JSON file of any type. Applying the following JSON on the j.${EndpointName}.REQ will name the copied profile: j.GetStaffCodeInfo.REQ.

{
    "EndpointNumber" : 141,
    "EndpointMethod" : "Post",
    "EndpointName"   : "GetStaffCodeInfo",
    "API" : {
        "EndpointMethod"    : "Get",
        "Service"           : "contact",
        "EndpointName"      : "get-staff-code-info-v1"
    }
}

In addition, references in component templates are smart-replaced to avoid copying shared components and to redirect dependencies to the newly created component set.
