Record producer in multiple applications

[Flavio4]

Hello,

Sorry for the naïf question, I am just starting with App Engine Studio.
(An easy point for a badge for the first to answer 😊)

Do I understand correctly that it is not possible to use the same Record Producer in multiple applications, i.e. in each application I have to create a new Record Producer, if I need one?

Or is it possible to share/select an existing Record Producer in a new Application? If yes, how?

Thank you in advance
Flavio

Hello!

Any given record can only exist in one application scope. Regardless of what that record is. That being said, you can create a record producer that produces a record on a table in a different scope.

Additionally, any given record producer can only produce records on ONE single table by default. You can do some scripting to create different kinds of records, but that's not really the intended use for record producers.

What is it that you are trying to ultimately achieve? There may be some other methods that meet your needs (such as multiple record producers, but using variables sets to manage a central set of variables across the multiple record producers, etc)

Thank you Paige.

As a newbe to AES, what I was trying to achieve, is to use in AES the "legacy" record producers that we created without AES.

I understand that is not possible "by design", right?
