SetPoint Action Type Attributes

The SetPoint action type has the following associated configuration attributes:

Attribute Required Description

attribute

No

Specifies a value, a point attribute, or a facility attribute. If the Value Type (valueType) is PointAttribute or FacilityAttribute, then this field indicates which attribute will be used.

The available values to use for this field can be found in the CygNet.API Help file under the CygNet.Data.Core > CygNetCoreProperties.CygNetProperty Enumeration section.

relativeFacilityLink

No

Specifies the relative facility tag to use for the action. E.g., Separator

Note: The facility tag used as the starting point for the relative resolution depends on where this action type is configured. If the action is defined at a position level, then the base facility tag will be the well facility. If defined at the header level, the base facility will be the header facility.

E.g., Separator
