SimpleIdentifier (Deprecated)

Type: String
The QualifiedName of an OData construct in scope
Type: String
The qualified name of an action with an optional overload
The qualified name of an action, optionally followed by parentheses
containing the binding parameter type of a bound action overload to identify that bound overload,
or by empty parentheses to identify the unbound overload, like in the Target attribute of an Annotation.
Changes to the source properties or source entities may have side-effects on the target properties or entities.
If neither TargetProperties nor TargetEntities are specified, a change to the source property values may have unforeseeable side-effects. An empty NavigationPropertyPath may be used in TargetEntities to specify that any property of the annotated entity type may be affected.
Side effects without a TriggerAction happen immediately when modifying one of the source properties or source entities. Side effects with a TriggerAction are deferred until explicitly triggered via the TriggerAction.
Special case where the side effect is annotated on an action: here the change trigger is the action invocation, so SourceProperties and SourceEntities have no meaning,
only TargetProperties and TargetEntities are relevant. They are addressed via the binding parameter of the action, e.g. if the binding parameter is named _it, all paths have to start with _it/.
This can also be used with OData V2 services: the annotation target is a function import that is marked with sap:action-for, and all paths have to start with _it/.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SourceProperties | [PropertyPath] | Changes to the values of one or more of these structural properties may affect the targets |
| SourceEntities | [NavigationPropertyPath] | Changes to one or more of these entities may affect the targets. An empty path means the annotation target. |
| TargetProperties | [String] | These structural properties may be affected if the value of one of the sources changes The syntax follows closely the syntax rules for Edm.PropertyPath, with the addition of * as the last path segment meaning all structural properties directly reached via the preceding path |
| TargetEntities | [NavigationPropertyPath] | These entities will be affected if the value of one of the sources changes. All affected entities need to be explicitly listed. An empty path means the annotation target. |
| EffectTypes (Deprecated) | EffectType? | All side effects are essentially value changes, differentiation not needed. |
| TriggerAction | QualifiedName? | Bound action to trigger side-effects after modifying an entity Binding parameter type of the trigger action is the entity type annotated with SideEffects. The action does not have any additional parameters and does not return anything. It either succeeds with 204 No Content or it fails with 4xx or 5xx. |
| TriggeredIndicator (Experimental) | Boolean? | Indicates whether the side-effect has already happened The value of this property typically is a Path expression pointing to a boolean property. It can be used by clients to defer expensive refresh calls until they are actually needed and instead just request the referenced indicator property. Servers can choose to return indicator properties even if not explicitly requested. |
| Discretionary (Experimental) | Boolean | Indicates whether the client can decide if a side-effect should be triggered or not The value of this property typically a static boolean value. It can be used by clients (e.g. by asking the end user) to decide if the side effect should be triggered or not. This indicator is only allowed in case a trigger action is given as only then the execution control of the side effect is provided to the client. |
EffectType (Deprecated)
All side effects are essentially value changes, differentiation not needed.
