    We are using JSON for metadata support on process traceability. OIC generates traceability data with some standard schema (users, process ID, etc...) and is stored in dedicated DB. General metadata, that strongly depends on specific process, is transformed in JSON format and stored in a DB. Now we need external application that has to support JSON import in OAC.

    I don't think, that this Idea should be in Delivered status : there is nothing in OAC September release update, mentioning API extension for data set creation (except reload datasets based on connections).
