Syntax highlighting

The input fields support syntax highlighting depending on the syntax type.

Auto-completion

Auto-completion can be used when creating script code. The amount of scripted code to enter is reduced by displaying the names of properties or functions that can be used. To use auto-completion, use the shortcut Ctrl + SPACE in the relevant positions within the input fields. The contents of the list is determined by the key words in the code.

Entering code snippets

Input fields that required data in VB.Net syntax support code snippets. In the Visual Basic category, general code snippets are provided. The Object Layer category contains special code snippets for the One Identity Manager object layer.

You can insert code snippets using the following options:

Using the icon
- Select the icon.
- Select the Object Layer or Visual Basic category.
- Select the code snippet.
Using a shortcut
- Press F2.
- Select the Object Layer or Visual Basic category.
- Select the code snippet.
Using an aliases
- Enter an alias.
- Use Tab to insert the code snippet.
  
  NOTE: Case sensitivity applied when you enter the alias.

NOTE: If you select a code snippet directly using a shortcut or the

icon, a short description and the shortcut name are displayed in a tooltip.

TIP: You can use custom code snippets. To do this, create a CustomSnippets directory in the One Identity Manager installation directory to store the code snippets. Use Visual Studio documentation to develop your own code snippets.

Inputting values using dollar ($) notation

In input fields where a VB.NET term is expected, a help list opens when you enter $. All properties of the current object are displayed. You can also see a tooltip with a detailed description of the property. When you select a foreign key (FK) column, you can navigate to the columns in the relevant table using the arrow keys. To end selection in the target column, press Enter or double-click. The complete $ notation for your selection should now be shown in the input column. To close the help list without copying any data, press Esc or leave the input field.
