executeConnection()

Last updated 18/09/2024

The following code demonstrates how to use

executeConnection()
with a pre-configured connection endpoint.

Example One​

JavaScript
Reading a list from a pre-configured connection
let results = five.executeConnection('ODataRW', 'LIST');
if (results.isOk()) {
   console.log('Record Count : ' + results.recordCount())
}

Example Two​

JavaScript
Creating a new record using an OData configured connection
const newRecord = {
    record: {
        "FirstName":"John",
        "Gender":"Male",
        "LastName":"Citizen",
        "UserName":"jcitizen"
    }
};

results = five.executeConnection('ODataRW', 'CREATE', newRecord);
if (results.isOk()) {
   console.log('Record Created')
}

Example Three​

JavaScript
Retrieving a record using an OData configured connection
results = five.executeConnection('ODataRW', 'READ', {key: 'jcitizen'});
if (results.isOk() && results.recordCount() === 1) {
   console.log('Record Retrieved : ' + results.records[0].FirstName);
}

Example Four​

JavaScript
Updating an existing OData record
const updateRecord = {
    key: 'jcitizen',
    record: {
        "FirstName":"John",
        "Gender":"Male",
        "LastName":"Citizen",
        "UserName":"jcitizen2"
    }
};

results = five.executeConnection('ODataRW', 'UPDATE', updateRecord);
if (results.isOk()) {
   console.log('Record Updated')
}
