creating an object with several activated tabs in one go
creating an object with several activated tabs in one go
Hi,
Currently, when working with FD's UI to add an user entry, you can choose to activate several tabs. Then, when pressing "ok" , if any tab's mandatory fields is missing or isn't well formated the system would tell.
Now let's look how it works with the webservice: you have to create the user entry first (User tab), then you can activate another tab and set its attributes by issuing another request. This is kind of sloppy in some context. Let's imagine we want to create an account with a mail attribute with the webservice.
- account creation
- activate the Mail tab.
If anything wrong happen with the second step, depending on the context you may have to deleted the account. Add to that that during a certain period of time, the account is somehow made "available to the world" with no email. Overall you also have to handle several errors handling in sequence...
So I think the webservice should implement a way to activate several tabs in a way so you get all the errors/mandatory fields in one go.
Let's discuss.
