Model configuration settings

This section offers information for Odoo users on how to set up model configurations for the Oregional REST API.

Model configurations allow to refine how a model should be made available to a remote application.

Highlights:

  • add an icon to the model that can be sent to the remote application to help users visually to identify quickly the type of Odoo record they see on a Confluence page

  • change the display name of the model, e.g.: for res.partner instead of "Contacts" you might want to display "Partners" in Confluence

  • limit the list of fields that can be displayed in Confluence (you might not want to allow certain sensitive fields to be able to be accessible from Confluence)

  • link a model configuration to any model scheme

The app is shipped with the Default partner configuration scheme to give you an idea about this feature.

Fields tab

Fields for the selected model that are allowed to be used in Confluence.

There are three ways to limit the list of fields:

  • None: there is no limit, all fields are available for the model

  • Blacklist: all fields except for the listed fields are available for the model

  • Whitelist: only the listed fields are available for the model

Not all fields make sense or advised to be used in Confluence, but it is up to you, what you allow. Just give it some thoughts before allowing all fields.

Model schemes tab

You may link the configuration to model schemes by clicking on Add a line and unlink configurations by clicking on the x on the right end of the line.

Audit tab

On the audit tab admins can find information about:

  • creation timestamp

  • user who created the record

  • last modification timestamp

  • user who last modified the record
