Hi !!

Can anyone explain what is the difference between these two classes Index-Operator and Data-Admin-Operator-ID class in pega.

Both store operator details, but why we have 2 classes for this purpose?

@AbhishekC1725 Data-Admin-Operator-ID has only the core operator details. If suppose you need to access pyaccessaddititonal group(all the access groups in a operator id, its a value list) of the operator record you can’t get from Data-Admin-Operator-ID class. You need to do class join with Index-Operator class. Because pyaccessgroupaddititonal is not exposed so you cant write a RD and get that column, but with Index-Operator you can do class and get that because whenver a new access group is added to an operator ID, a new record will be inserted to index-operator class.

You can verify this-> app explorer-> Index-operator-> Click on the class-> You will see many instances-> You can filter with your operator ID

Now add a access group and now again check your operator instances will be added to index-operator class.

Conclusion-> To access other properties/columns which are not exposed in Data-admin-operator-iD class you can get it through index-operator class

Also you can open index-operator class definition and check the history tab for explanation

@Anoop Krishna Thanks for this information. Your mentioned on property pyAccessGroupAdditional , what is the use of this OOTB property pyAccessGroupAdditional ?

@AbhishekC1725 This property is a value list that stores all the access groups of an operator id. See Clipbaord-> System pages-> Operator ID-> pyAccessGroupAdditional . This value list under this page is not an exposed column in Data-admin-operator-ID class. Whenever a new access group is added, it will be added to this value list and a new instance will be added to index-operator class.
