| Inconsistencies when exporting/importing lists or datasets usging XML formats | eva pujadas | 2015-04-30 03:27 | |||||||||||||||

As already announced in your documentation, validation in fields (both types of validation: regex and range) is not included in the XML definition when exporting fields, lists or datasets (studies): https://www.labkey.org/wiki/home/Documentation/page.view?name=propertyFields Additionally, we have realized that conditional formats, although they are included in the xml definition when exporting lists, they are ignored when importing (in datasets it works well). About defaults, it seems that default values, although they are defined in the XML schema description, they are not exported in lists or datasets: https://www.labkey.org/download/schema-docs/xml-schemas/namespaces/http_labkey_org_data_xml/namespace-summary.html The default type of a field does not even seem to be defined in the XML schema. Questions: - Will the conditional formats and default values issues eventually be fixed? We have searched in your issue tracking database and they do not seem to be there. - About exporting validation of fields, is it planned to include this feature in a early future release of LabKey? We would use this feature in the domain of psychological research, where quite often the same validation rule holds true for all fields of one survey. Or, is there a reason why not to include validations in exports? We are running LabKey 15.1. Please, let me know if you need further details. Thank you very much for your great support. Eva Pujadas |
