Creating Structure Types That are Compatible With Large Object Types for Client Parameters and Personalization Keys

If an operation argument has a:

• Large object type – map a client parameter or personalization key into the argument, and use a compatible type (String or Binary) for the client parameter/personalization key.
• Structure (or list of structures) type that contains large object fields – map a client parameter or personalization key into the argument if the type of the client parameter/personalization key is a structure (or list) with compatible fields.

For example, if the operation argument structure is:

MYSTRUCT 
mystr[STRING(10)] 
mybigbin[BIGBINARY]

this is a compatible structure type:

CP_MYSTRUCT 
mystr[STRING(10)] 
mybigbin[BINARY(32767)] 

To easily create a client parameter or personalization key that matches the type of the argument and automatically add a mapping from the argument to the new client parameter/personalization key, drag and drop an argument into the Personalization Keys or Client Parameters folder of the Input Mapping figure. When the argument is a structure containing large object fields, and you drag and drop it on the Personalization Keys or Client Parameters folder, a new compatible structure type is created:

• For client parameters – a new client parameter is added with the compatible type, and the mapping added.
• For personalization keys – the New Personalization Key wizard is invoked, with the initial type set to the new compatible structure type.
