Database setup | HCL Digital Experience

You must create the database table manually before you can use rule based user groups.

The rule-based user groups feature stores the definitions of the rule-based user groups in a database table. This includes the name, rule, and description of the group. Use one of the following SQL statements to create the table, using a database and schema of your choice. Replace schema_name in the scripts with the schema name of your choice.

Syntax for DB2 and Derby databases:

CREATE TABLE schema_name.SOFTGROUPS
(ID INT NOT NULL GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY,
 GROUPNAME VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL,
 RULE VARCHAR(300) NOT NULL,
 DESCRIPTION VARCHAR(512),
 LASTMODIFIED TIMESTAMP,
 PRIMARY KEY (ID),
 UNIQUE (GROUPNAME));

CREATE INDEX schema_name.SOFTGROUPSIX1 ON 
schema_name.SOFTGROUPS (LASTMODIFIED DESC);

Syntax for SQL databases:

CREATE TABLE schema_name.SOFTGROUPS
(ID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
GROUPNAME VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
"RULE" VARCHAR(300) NOT NULL,
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR(512),
LASTMODIFIED DATETIME);

CREATE INDEX SOFTGROUPSIX1 ON 
schema_name.SOFTGROUPS(LASTMODIFIED DESC);
sp_indexoption 'schema_name.SOFTGROUPS', 
'disallowpagelocks', TRUE;

Syntax for Oracle databases:

CREATE TABLE schema_name.SOFTGROUPS
  (
     ID           INT,
     GROUPNAME    VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL,
     RULE         VARCHAR(300) NOT NULL,
     DESCRIPTION  VARCHAR(512),
     LASTMODIFIED TIMESTAMP,
     PRIMARY KEY  (ID),
     UNIQUE (GROUPNAME)  
  );

CREATE INDEX schema_name.SOFTGROUPSIX1 ON 
schema_name.SOFTGROUPS  (LASTMODIFIED DESC);

CREATE SEQUENCE softgroups_seq;

CREATE TRIGGER softgroups_seq_trigger
  before INSERT ON schema_name.SOFTGROUPS
  FOR each ROW
BEGIN
    IF ( :new.id IS NULL ) THEN
      SELECT softgroups_seq.nextval
      INTO   :new.id
      FROM   dual;
    END IF;
END;

Oracle does not support auto-increment or identity feature directly as part of the ID column definition. You must create a sequence and a trigger. For easy submission of the statement, make sure to add the final slash character (/). You can submit the statement by pressing the Enter key.
