Creating a Composite Operation

Create a composite operation by defining composite relationships between MBOs, then define input mappings for the operation on the root MBO to include child nodes of the composite object graph.

1. Define composite relationships between MBOs.
2. Add an operation. For example, you could select the Operation icon from the Palette and add it to the root MBO of the composite graph. Name the operation and select the Type.
3. Specify a data source and click Next.
4. Specify the definition for the operation and click Next.
   For example, for a REST Web service, you would define a request representation that specifies the operation's details.
5. Define the input mappings for the operation to include child MBOs from the composite graph.
   You can manipulate input mappings (including adding client parameters and setting default values) after the operation is created, from the Properties view.
