Dependent Tree Macro

This macro allows you to define dependencies between parameters in a condition or action.

For example, this macro is used to ensure that components under a tenant can only access other components in the same tenant. Such as when you select an endpoint in a pipeline step. The endpoints that are available depend on the tenant being configured.

Note

This macro is defined in the following location:

sitecore > system > Settings > Rules > Definitions > Macros > Data Exchange Framework > DependentTree

Attribute	Description
dependency	Name of another property on the condition or action.
mode	Determines how the root item for the tree is determined. The following values are valid: descendant - Find the first descendant of the item selected in the dependency property that is based on the template specified by the templateid attribute. Then the first child whose name matches the value of the rootitemname attribute. Use this item as the root for the tree.
templateid	The purpose of this value depends on the mode attribute.
rootitemname	The purpose of this value depends on the mode attribute.
selection	If set to a template id, only items based on the specified template id can be selected. If no value is set, any item displayed in the tree can be selected.
setRootAsSearchRoot	This ensure the search dialog uses the root of the tree as the root for searches. This attribute must be set to true.

Caution

Attribute names are case-sensitive.

Tip

This macro can be used beyond Data Exchange Framework. It can be used with any Sitecore condition or action.
