How to add Endpoint fields to the Create Connection Operation in Pattern Designer for Discovery and Service MappingDescription When defining an Entry Point in Pattern Designer with the Create Connection custom operation you may want to add additional fields to the Endpoint type to create the connection. For example you may want to add the 'database' field to the MS SQL Server Endpoint type, however the only fields present are "host, instance, port, and type" and no way to change or add the fields in Pattern Designer. Cause This is working as expected as the fields you see when choosing a new Entry Point Type in the "Create Connection" operation in Pattern Designer are defined in the "sa_map_properties" UI View for that table. Screen Shots of an MS SQL Server Endpoint record's form in the "sa_map_properties" UI View and a second screen shot of the Create Connection Pattern Designer operation showing those same fields defined in the view. Resolution There's another out of the box UI View that Pattern Designer checks before using the View defined for the Endpoint type under the "sa_map_properties" view. This view is the "sa_create_connection_properties" UI View and has only the HTTP Endpoint [cmdb_ci_endpoint_http] type defined to use this view OOtB. To add or edit the visible fields on the Create Connection step in Pattern Designer you can create a new "sa_create_connection_properties" View through the End Point type's table record form and the fields defined for that table in that view will show in the Create Connection step instead of the fields defined in the "sa_map_properties" view. Procedure: Open a record on the CI table of the Endpoint type you want to add fields to. On the records Form, click the Additional actions icon and select Configure > Form Layout. 3. In the View name list under For view and section, define which view you want to modify: Select sa_create_connection_properties if it appears in the list, orIf sa_create_connection_properties does not appear in the list: Select New.In the View name field, enter sa_create_connection_properties.Click OK. 4. Use the slushbucket to add or remove attributes from the view. 5. Click Save 6. Load a Pattern Connection Section that uses the Create Connection operation. 7. Set the Connection Type to 'Application Flow'. 8. Set the Entry Point type to Class type that the "sa_create_connection_properties" View was created for to find the additional fields have are now showing.
