Hi,

 

i would like to know how is it posible to uptade a record of my database connected to Celonis by jdbc by an Action Flow.

 

I consider that i will need a Celonis Agent, but i can´t find it. I don´t know if it is only exits for SAP.

 

and then, which is the component i have to use on Action Flow ?

 

Thanks in advance,

Sincercely,

I believe you may be looking for a package setting under Variables > Create Variable > Connection:

From there you can select your source system and configure the connection string. Then you can create an Action Flow under that package and point to this variable for your flow logic.


Hi,

Thanks for your answer, i could be a good solution if it had a JDBC connection package. Do you know any other solution ?

Hi @enrique sanchez alonso,

 

The JDBC Connection of Celonis is read-only, so you cannot use it to push data back.

 

If your source system is not SAP, then the only option left is using HTTP API calls (see On-prem Apps (celonis.com)).

If you are using a cloud application, you likely do not need the On-Prem agent, and can directly use the HTTP module in the action flow (see HTTP (Action Flow) (celonis.com)).

 

If you are using a on-premise application that is behind a firewall, and therefore is not accessible via the HTTP module, the On-Premise agent is necessary to get the call behind the firewall. Please follow the steps as described here: HTTP (On-Prem) (Action Flow) (celonis.com).

 

In both cases, you need the developer documentation of your source system to understand what the syntax of your call should be (unless there is already a pre-existing connection in Celonis available).

 

I hope this helps!

 

Best regards,

Jan-peter
