Data Exchange app: Adding category option combinations

[thisisdaryn (Daryn R)]

Hi,

Is there a way to specify the category option combos in the user interface for adding requests to Data Exchanges?

I am configuring data exchanges and the user interface for setting up the configurations does not seem to include any means of specifying the category option combos that I would like to transfer: only the data elements - along with periods and org units. Consequently, only the data element totals are being exchanged (prior to using the workaround described below).

Currently, I am working around this by taking the following steps 1) exporting the Data Exchange metadata, 2) editing the JSON manually to include the category option combo, and 3) re-importing the metadata to update the request configurations.

Thanks for any assistance/clarification

How are you configuring the ‘Input category option combo ID scheme’ when creating the Data Exchange request?

Thanks!

Hi @Gassim

The exchange uses the default ID scheme.

The other possible way, I am seeing to do it is to create separate requests for each category option combo of interest using the filter functionality.
