Previewing an External Web Service

Here are some tips for entering sample data:

• You do not have to enter data in every field. Leaving a field empty results in an empty string being used for preview.
• If you want to preview the effect of passing the default value or a null value in a field, click the Disable icon next to the field:
  
  If you have defined a default value for the field on the Request tab, the default value will be used. If you have not defined a default value, a null value will be used.
• You can preview multiple records at once. To add a record, click the Add button .
• You can import test data from a file. To import data, click the Import button . Note the following:
  • The first row in the file must be a header record. The field names in the header must match the field names required by the service.
  • The maximum number of records that can be imported is five.
  • If the file uses a space as the field separator, field values must be surrounded by quotes. Here is an example of a file that uses a space as the field separator:

    AddressLine1 AddressLine2 City StateProvince PostalCode
    "One Global View" "" "Troy" "NY" "12180"
    "3001 Summer St" "" "Stamford" "CT" "06926"
    "224 N Michigan Ave" "Suite 300" "Chicago" "IL" ""

• To delete an individual record, hover over the input record name (for example, "Input Record 1") and click the Delete button next to the record name:
