API object fields

This appendix describes the field names of each API object. It also identifies the fields that you can specify in APPSEL and APPFLD sections of a buffer.

Fields in the HCL Workload Automation for Z API data dictionary are defined in one of these formats:
BIN
A binary value.
CHAR
A character value.
DATE
A character value, in the format YYMMDD.
TIME
A character value, in the format HHMM.
DUR
A character value, in the format HHMM or HHHHMM depending on the field length.
FLAG
A character value, in the format Y or N.
Each APPSEL and APPFLD column has one of these values:
R
Required. You must specify this field and the operator value must be EQ or =. For a GET request with a key type of OWNER, PRED, or SUCC, you must specify these fields and the operator must be EQ to ensure that there is only one possible match. When the key type is SAME, these fields are optional.

For PUT and DEL requests you must specify these fields. Also, the key type must be SAME and the operator EQ.

O
Optional.
N
Not supported.
