How to Get transaction items based on the reference?

Help

Hi,
I just want to know how can get transaction items based on the reference that we set during the set transaction?

Let’s say I’ve 10 transactions in a queue item. Here I just want to get next transaction which has a specific reference (tag).

Hi @manirajmkr,
I have tried it. But I am getting different thing.

In above documentation , it states that

 "You can search for a specific transaction or a group of them, according to a custom reference, which is 
   added through the Reference property of the Add Queue Item and Add Transaction Item activities. The 
  reference can be used to link your transactions to other applications used within an automation project. 
  Additionally, this feature enables you to search for certain transactions, in Orchestrator, according to the 
  provided custom reference."

But when i try to add the Item with the “reference” , I noticed this error.

Add queue item : Bad Request\r\nSome values used for input might be in an incorrect format. Please note that not all properties are compatible with older Orchestrator versions.

Above thing is giving me output in IEnumerable < QueueItem > type.
If you can tell me how I can get values from this datatype that would help me a lot.

Thanks.

Hey @manirajmkr

First, your “item” has to be of type QueueItem. Then you can retrieve the info you need based on the SpecificContent (which is a dictionary).

For example: item.SpecificContent("name").ToString retrieves the value of argument “name” that I have set in ItemInformation of Add queue item activity.

For this I’ve to use Get Transaction Items activity. But there I don’t see any property where we can filter the transaction based on the reference name in this case(Ready to process)

@ovi @balupad14
Thanks

Why use Get Transaction Item? The example I gave you is to use inside the For each activity.

@ovi

Thanks for the response actually I was looking for a code which get me the reference.

Ok, that’s great, I thought you were looking to get the Specific Content of items when you already know the Reference.

Hi
I am trying to get the Specific Content. Like I have 3 arguments “Partner ID” “Date” and “TMSO”. But when I am using Get Transaction Item(output variable- transacitem)
The code transacitem.SpecificContent(“Date”) is working, but same code is not working for Partner ID or TMSO and giving error that “The Key given was not present in Dictionary”.

I can see all 3 arguments updated in the queue.

Thanks in Advance

Does the capitalization and spacing match?

Hi,

transactionitem.Reference().ToString - can we use this in Reference section of get transaction item to get the reference that we set when we added items into the queue? Correct me if I am wrong pls

@Santa_Krish
I would suggest to you that your questions should be a new topic.There we’re a few Updates in the API.

However have a Look on this
