SDC Component Diagram
Sequence Diagram
In this case, the Catalog plays a manager role of the workflows, it manage the designed workflows and provide the Create/Updata/Query operations of workflows for Service Designer and provide the storage of workflows.
At the same time, the '(ZTE) WF Designer' plays an editor role of a workflow selected.
The interaction between Catalog and '(ZTE) WF Designer' is as follows:
So, the rest APIs of '(ZTE) WF Designer' should be provided as follow:
Open and Navigates to (ZTE) WF Designer
The rest APIs of Catalog should be provided as follow:
Get Workflow Content by WF ID
Save Workflow Content with WF ID (to Catalog)
Get Extend BPMN Activites (from Catalog)
Get Category Information of Extend BPMN Activities (from Catalog)
Rest APIs of (ZTE) WF Designer
Define the Rest APIs of (ZTE) WF Designer, these APIs will be provided by ZTE.
Open and Navigates to (ZTE) WF Designer
Open the an existed workflow and navigate to the '(ZTE) WF Designer'.
For a new workflow, before it be opened, the catalog should create it first. The Sequence Diagram shows as follow:
URL:
GET https://{wf-designer-ip}:{port}/workflow-modeler?operationID={operationID}&uuid={uuid}&id={id}&displayMode={view/modify/create}
Request:
Query Parameters:
The following attribute data transfers using Query Parameters
Name | Data Type | Required | Description |
operationID | String | Y | The new generated ID of the operation |
uuid | String | Y | Versioned identifier of the resource model (this uuid changed for every major version of the resource) Ex.: b8ff69ca-786d-479e-9f9c-217a90ee0ebc |
id | String | Y | Unique UUID of the workflow |
displayMode | Enum | Y | The Display Mode for the workflow, Valid value as follow: view - can view only, can't modify. - OOS modify - can modify workflow - OOS create - can create the workflow |
Response:
Navigate to the (ZTE) WF Designer UI, load the workflow content with the given id from Catalog.
Rest APIs of Catalog
Define the rest APIs of Catalog, these APIs will be provided by Amdocs/AT&T.
Get Workflow Content by WF ID
URL:
GET http://{sdc-ip}:{port}/api/sdc/v1/workflow-modeler/models/{id}
Request:
Path Parameters:
Name | Data Type | Required | Description | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
id | String | Yes | Unique UUID of the workflow |
Response:
Return the BPMN file content of the workflow in the format of string.
Save Workflow Content with artifactUUID(WF ID) (to Catalog)
Save workflow content to the Catalog.
URL:
POST http://{sdc-ip}:{port}/sdc/v1/catalog/resource/{uuid}/interfaces/{operationID}/artifacts/{artifactUUID}
Path Parameters:
The following attribute data will be transfer using path Parameters
Name | Data Type | Required | Description |
uuid | String | Y | Versioned identifier of the resource model (this uuid is changed for every major version of the resource) Ex.: b8ff69ca-786d-479e-9f9c-217a90ee0ebc |
operationID | String | Y | identifier of the operation Ex.: b8ff69ca-786d-479e-9f9c-217a90ee0ebc |
artifactUUID
| String | Y | Unique UUID of the workflow (WF ID) |
Request (POST):
Request Headers
Header Name | Mandatory? | Description |
Content-Type | Y | Valid value is : application/json |
Content-MD5
| Y | The value for this header must be the MD5 checksum over the whole json body |
USERID | Y | The user ID of the SDC Designer. This user must also have a Designer role in SDC |
X-ECOMP-RequestID | N | According to the general ECOMP agreement the "X-ECOMP-RequestID" header with the transaction UUID should be published by ECOMP component calling an exposed by other ECOMP component API in order to make possible the transaction traceability across ECOMP. If it is not sent it will be automatically generated by SDC on request receipt. |
X-ECOMP-InstanceID | Y | For auditing purpose each component calling the SDC API should identify itself by sending its identity ( e.g. Instar name ...) in "X-ECOMP-InstanceID" header. If this header with non-null value is not supplied the HTTP Request will be rejected with '400 Bad Syntax’ response code. Ex.: “workflow” |
Accept | N | Determines the format of the body of the response. Valid values are: “application/octet-stream” |
Authorization | Y | The username and password are formed into one string as “username: password”. This string is then Base64 encoded to produce the encoded credential which is communicated in the header after the string “Authorization: Basic “. If the Authorization header is missing, then an HTTP “401 Unauthorized” with ‘WWW-Authenticate’ header specifying the type of required client authentication and realm token will be returned. “401” response should trigger the repeated HTTP request sending with “Authorization” header containing the client ’s credentials. If “Authorization” header is received, but the client‘s authentication fails ( due to either unknown “username” or invalid “password” ) the “403 Forbidden” response code will be returned |
Request Body
The body of the save request must be in a json format that specifies the metadata.
The workflow contents or artifacts. See WorkflowInfo

payloadData | String | Y | The workflow artifact or assets file. The data of the artifact after Base64 encoding |
Base64
The resulting string is then encoded using the RFC2045-MIME variant of Base64
Response:
Response Headers
Header Name | Mandatory? | Description |
