Importing an external library into Decision Designer

Edit online

Before you can use an external library in a decision service, you need to make it available at the project level.

Before you begin

Before you can import an external library, the administrator needs to configure credentials for the Maven repository where your external libraries are stored. For more information, see Configuring credentials for a Maven repository manager.

Procedure

  1. Open the Settings menu from your project: open the overflow menu Overflow menu next to the name of the project and click Settings.
  2. Open the External libraries tab and click Import .
  3. Enter the coordinates of the external library that you want to import into the project: its groupId, artifactId, and version.
    These are declared in the <dependencies> section of the project POM file.
  4. Click OK.

Results

The external library is now available in the list of libraries you imported. Open the library to access the list of custom functions and data types it contains.

What to do next

You can now create a dependency between the external library and the decision service in which you want to use its vocabulary.
