Choose from the following sentences to document specific field types.

Drop-down lists/Option Buttons (radio buttons):

You must list the LoV and describe them if their meaning isn't apparent. In this case, format the LoV in italics, regular font for the LoV's description. In either case, list the LoVs as a bullet list.

  • <State what the should do in this field>. The available options are: <bullet list of LoVs>
    Specify the Salesforce API to be used. The available options are:...

  • Select the <category> that you want to use. Available options are...
    * Option 1<italicized>. <third person singular form of the verb>
    * Option 2<italicized>. <third person singular form of the verb>
    Select the API that you want to use. Available options are:
    Bulk API. Sends the Snap execution request details as a bulk API call.
    REST API. ...
    OR
    Select one of the three following modes in which the Snap executes:
    * Validate & Execute. Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation, then performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
    * Execute only. Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
    * Disabled. Disables the Snap and all Snaps downstream from it.

Check boxes:

  • If selected, <Snap behavior>.
    If selected, an empty file is written when the incoming document has no data.

  • If selected, <behavior>. If not selected/Otherwise, <behavior>
    Use "If not selected" if the first sentence is long.
    If selected, the Snap uses the file path value as is. Otherwise, the Snap uses the file path value in the URL.
    If selected, an empty file is written when the incoming document has empty data. If there is no incoming document at the input view of the Snap, no file is written regardless of the value of the property.

  • Select to <action>
    Use this if the behavior is binary. Either this or that, where the converse behavior is apparent/obvious.
    Select to execute the Pipeline during validation.

Text Fields

  • Describe what the user shall specify in this field. Additional details, as applicable, in a separate sentence. Include caveats such as the field being conditionally mandatory, limitations, etc.
    Enter the name for new account.
    Specify the account ID to use to log in to the endpoint.
    Required if IAM Role is selected.
    Do not use this field if you are using batch processing.

Numeric Text Fields

  • Describe what the field represents/contains. Additional details, as applicable, in a separate sentence. Include caveats such as the field being conditionally mandatory, limitations, etc. Include special values that impact the field's behavior as a bullet list.
    The number of records in a batch.
    The number of seconds for which you want the Snap to wait between retries.
    The number of seconds for which the Snap waits between retries.
    Use the following special values:
    * 0: Disables batching.
    * 1: Includes all documents in a single request.

Notes in field descriptions

  • Confluence’s new editor does not allow nesting of most macros inside another macro, especially the Note/Alert/Warning/Info (Panel) macros inside a table macro and Excerpt macros inside Expand or Panel Macro+ macros. So, as a workaround use the Footnotes approach as mentioned below:

    • Assign numbers at the Note locations in the form of follow through phrases like See Note 2 below this table. or such.

    • Add your Notes---an appropriate Note/Alert/Warning/Info (Panel) macro---immediately below the macro (for example, Table macro) beginning the content with the corresponding number assigned.
