Test Data Source Settings on a Flexcard

Preview a Flexcard with real data by adding test values to runtime variables. The variables populate the dynamic fields in a data source, such as a contextId from an Omnistudio Data Mapper that gets data from an Account.

1. From the Flexcards home tab, click a version of a Flexcard to open the Flexcard Designer.
2. In the Setup panel, click + Add New in the Test Parameters section.
3. In the Key field, enter a test variable name. For example, if your data source is a Data Mapper, enter the variable from the Input Map representing a contextId such as recordId. See Flexcards Context Variables.
4. In the Value field, enter a test variable value. For example, enter a record Id, such as the one found in the URL of an Account page.
5. (Optional) If your returned data has multiple arrays, to return a specific dataset enter its JSON path in Result JSON Path. For example, to return just the Cases dataset, enter [0]['Cases'] if your JSON looks like this:

   {
   [
     "Cases": [
       {
         "Priority": "High",
         "IsEscalated": false,
         "CaseId": "5006g00000FpEz5AAF",
         "Created": "2020-07-22T00:22:42.000Z",

       },
       {
         "Priority": "Medium",
         "IsEscalated": false,
         "CaseId": "5006g00000BsfKkAAJ",

         "Status": "Closed",
         "Origin": "Web",
         "CaseNumber": "00001017"
       }  
     ],
