Creating a data type

Define the logical data layer of your application by creating data types for each type of information that your application processes. Data types simplify the organization of the properties, data pages, transforms, and other elements your application needs to get the right data at the right time.

  1. In the navigation panel of App Studio, click Data.
  2. Click Data types and integrations.
  3. Click New.
  4. In the Data type name field, enter the type of information that you want to model.
  5. In the Define source data list, select Pega.
    By connecting to Pega database storage, you can add fields and complete your data model. When your data model is complete, and your external data sources are available, you can optionally connect to them.
  6. Click Submit.
