Adding a Business Rule Using the HTML Form

If a rule template view is defined for the rule template, then you can provide values for the bindings, defined in TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio, in a HTML form.

The form interface is the visual presentation of the rule template defined by rule template views. See TIBCO BusinessEvents Developer’s Guide for more details about rule template views.

    Procedure
  1. On the Workspace tab, in the Artifact Explorer pane, select the down arrow icon for the rule template you want to use and select New Business Rule.
  2. Type the business rule name in the dialogue box and click Finish.
    If the rule template view is defined for the rule template, then the HTML form is presented in the business rule editor. Based on the data types in the rule template view, the HTML element are generated for the HTML form.
