Is there a way to start a column population job in DEV Studio to populate data from existing WOs to a newly exposed column? And how?

Hi @Will Cho,

below options for column population:

  1. Column population

  1. From dev studio, you can write an activity which will run a java code (similar to pxAutomaticColumnPopulation). Below is the java code which we used:

Step 1:Set values

Local.className = “your Class Name”

Local.property = “your property name”

Step 2: java step

IColPopulation colPop = ((PegaAPI)tools).getColumnPopulationAPI();

java.util.Set propertiesList = new HashSet();

try {

propertiesList.add(property);

colPop.schedulePopulationForProperties(className,propertiesList,null,null,null);

} catch (Exception e) {

oLog.error("Failed triggering column population for property “+property+” in class "+className+“due to the following error:\n” + e.getStackTrace());

}

Hope this helps!!
