MDM Palette

The MDM palette contains activities that can be added to your business processes.

To achieve different functionalities, the activities for ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for MDM can be divided into the following groups:

  • Record Activities
    TIBCO MDM has a set of master CRUD web services. The web service accepts and returns data in name-value pairs to allow the schema to be changed dynamically. However, such variable schema poses a huge challenge for the ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ client. Therefore, the ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for MDM provides a set of activities to read TIBCO MDM metadata and allow the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Developer Edition to interact with TIBCO MDM web services using a strongly typed schema.
  • DataLoad Activities
    TIBCO MDM data sources are used within the application as reference or lookup information for TIBCO MDM operations. Typically, data sources are sourced from systems outside of TIBCO MDM and life-cycle controlled by that outside system. ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for MDM provides a set of activities to execute data source upload and import actions.
  • Work Item Activities
    ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for MDM provides a set of work items related wrapper services by inquiring metadata and turn loosely schemed name-values pairs into strongly typed services.
  • Event Management Activities
    ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for MDM provides a set of activities that manage the standard workflow of TIBCO MDM using the event query service, and report event status. The activities wait for the event to complete.
  • REST Activities
    The REST services are the key components of cloud services and IoT (Internet of Things) service architecture. Therefore, to make good use of these advantages, REST services are introduced in the recent releases of TIBCO MDM to support record operations and other MDM functionalities.
