Viewing dependent assets

The Dependent Assets view shows which assets are used by each service, whether they are in the same project or a different one. You can also directly go to the integration where an asset is used from this view.

About this task

Dependent asset in packages refers to the components or resources that a package relies on to function properly. These packages can include the following files:
  • Other packages - A package might depend on services or utilities that are provided by another package. You can define these dependencies explicitly in the package settings.
  • Connections - If your package uses services such as JDBC or SAP, it needs properly configured and accessible adapter connections to function correctly.
  • Shared resources - The resources include schemas, document types, or shared services that are used across multiple packages.
  • External libraries - External JAR files or libraries that the package is dependent to function.
  • Configuration files - Some packages might require specific configuration files such as .cfg or .xml to be present and correctly set up.
