Export Metadata on Data Forms

edited Mar 1, 2021 10:59PM in EPM Platform and Freeform 2 comments

Summary

Looking for a way to export the members that are referenced in data forms in a parseable format. The existing System Report has this functionality but can only export in pdf, which is not usable.

Content

Use Case: we are looking to use this export to feed our client's homegrown metadata management tool to restrict actions users can take (e.g. renames or deletes) on members that are used on forms. On-prem this process is supported by direct calls to the relational database, but no such access exists for the cloud.

I am able to parse the XML files for each data form to extract this information using Python, but am looking for alternate solutions. Thank you!

Howdy, Stranger!
