    • The Create Physical Connection function enables you to create a physical connection record in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application based on the input that you receive when you instantiate an inventory.

    You can use the Create Physical Connection function to create a physical port connection on the interface cards in your networks.

    When you enter the Interface A, this function automatically retrieves the data for related Site A, Equipment A, and Port A. Similarly, after passing input Interface Z, the function retrieves the data for associated Site Z, Equipment Z, and Port Z. This function also retrieves the data for Bandwidth AtoZ and Bandwidth ZtoA from the Bandwidth field.

    This function also creates the connection elements and associates them to the physical connection.

    If you pass a physical connection element, this subflow creates the corresponding connection element and associates it to the physical connection.

    You can use this function as a Workflow Studio action in the Telecommunications Network Inventory workflow.

    Roles and availability

    Users with the admin role can add an action to a flow and define the configuration details of the flow. This function is available as a Workflow Studio action in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application so that you can perform inventory-related data operations.
