Creating a Property

Create a business-specific metadata property in Fleet Application Management to capture the business metadata classifications.

Only a Fleet Application Management administrator in an organization can define properties. For more information, see Properties in Fleet Application Management.
    1. On the Properties list page, select Create property. If you need help finding the list page or the property, see Listing Properties.
    2. Enter the following information:
      • Name: Enter a name to use for the business operations property, for example, the cost center of an organization or the business contact of an organization's personnel.
      • Create in Compartment: Verify the compartment that you want to create the property in. Select another compartment as needed.
      • Selection type: Specify how many values can be selected when the property is added to a fleet:
        • Single choice: Allow one value.
        • Multi choice: Allow several values.
        • Free form: Allow a constant defined value.
      • Value type: Select the value type to use, either string or numeric.
    3. Under Values, enter one or more values to use for the property.
      You can define one value or a set of values. For example, if an organization has several cost centers belonging to retail, manufacturing, IT, and so on, those cost centers can be the values.
    4. Select Create.
    The property is added to the Properties list page.
  • Use the oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin property create command and required parameters to create a property:

    oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin property create --compartment-id <compartment_OCID> --display-name <text> --selection <text> --value-type <value> [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for Fleet Application Management CLI commands, see the CLI for Fleet Application Management.

  • Run the CreateProperty operation to create a property.
