Test client tab
In the Planning & control > ID Builder menu, under the Test client tab, the code definitions of the active configuration in the Configuration tab can be tested. The code definitions can be tested so that the generated codes are assigned correctly in Nexeed Industrial Application System. Codes for code definitions are returned during testing. If variables are defined for the code definition, the variables must be entered with values. If counters are required for the code definition, they must be created in the Counters tab.

Test configuration with the JSON option
If a Code definition is selected in the Form data option, the code definition and the variables are pre-filled in the JSON option. If variables are defined for the code definition, values must be assigned for the variables.
Prerequisite
Expert or Administrator role
Procedure
-
Call up the Planning & control > ID Builder > Test client tab.
-
Select the JSON option.
-
Enter the code definition in the codeDefinition line.
Example:
"codeDefinition": "CodePackage2", -
Enter the keys and values of the variables in the variables array.
Example:
"variables": \{"InputVariable": "1","InputVariable2": "3"}If the structure is not valid or the variables of the code definition are not entered, an error message is output during testing.
