Hi Team,

Is there is a way I can export an existing IAL from IFS instead of loading it ?

I need to check the existing IAL used in PROD before loading an updated version …

 

Thanks

Hi @NMALKI,

You are allowed to save your IAL to a file when you first develop it from IEE IAL Object Developer window, but I’m afraid there is no way to do that afterwards. So unless you have those files saved from when you first created the objects, you would have to look in the database for definitions. 

When you create an IAL object, it creates the relevant views/table under IAL Owner Oracle user(usually named IFSINFO). So you can look up the database views and objects created under IFSINFO user directly from the database.

Following documentation regarding IAL Objects briefly describes the views and the tables created for IALs:

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/010_overview/255_br_and_a/070_information_access_layer/default.htm

 

Hope this helps!
