[SOLVED] Attribute Type Numbers

Hello,

I have script in ARIS 7.x for import/export objects and their attributes. This script uses "Type number" to identify attributes of the object, since they are User-defined and have no API name.

I thought this type number is permanent, but I was proved wrong several times. Why is this number changing, despite the fact I did not update ARIS? Could it be caused by changes made in the filter?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi,

in case of user defined attributes, you cannot use the type number as constants. Instead, you need to use the GUIDs of these kind of attributes.

Bye,

Hi,

Instead of type number change the code and use GUIDs as Frank suggested.

The code will look like this (replace GUID with actually GUID for the attribute):

ArisData.ActiveFilter().userDefinedAttributeTypeNum("GUID");

Thank you both very much for the solution.

I will try to implement it into the code.

Regards.
