Importing Inbound Flow(yaml format) through Architect Scripting

1

Is there any way to import yaml script through Architect Scripting?, I was able to import an i3Inbound format flow, but not in yaml format.

Please refer to the Archy tool for yaml-based Architect configuration: https://developer.genesys.cloud/devapps/archy/

Hi Tim,
so I wanted to import through Architect Scripting instead of Archy
this is what i am trying to do...

function callbackFunctionStart(){
return scriptingFlowFactory.createFlowInboundCallAsync('flow name', 'Using Architect Scripting', scriptingLanguages.englishUnitedStates, (archInboundCall) => {
return archInboundCall.importFromContentAsync(file, () => {
return archInboundCall.publishAsync();
});
});
}

when I gave file in i3Inbound format it is working but if it is in YAML format it is throwing error.

https://mypurecloud.github.io/purecloud-flow-scripting-api-sdk-javascript/ArchBaseFlow.html#importFromContentAsync documents the exportContent parameter as "the contents from a flow export"

https://mypurecloud.github.io/purecloud-flow-scripting-api-sdk-javascript/ArchBaseFlow.html#exportToObjectAsync is documented as "Exports the flow to a JSON object. The object passed back in the callback function will be a JSON object..."

The architect flow scripting SDK is explicitly documented to work with JSON, not YAML.

That makes sense based on the documentation since it requires JSON from a previous export operation.

Hi Tim,

So I have tried converting inbound flow from yaml format to json using "js-yaml" module but still I am getting errors
But when I tried converting same inbound flow which is in i3Inbound format, to json format using below code

let json = decodeURIComponent(atob(i3Inbound))

It gave me a data in json format and when I tried to import this json data it is working

function callbackFunctionStart(){
return scriptingFlowFactory.createFlowInboundCallAsync('flowname', 'Using Architect Scripting', scriptingLanguages.englishUnitedStates, (archInboundCall) => {
return archInboundCall.importFromContentAsync(json , () => {
return archInboundCall.publishAsync();
});
});
}

Is there any reason why 'yaml to json' converted file is throwing errors and any way to import that file...?

Presumably they're not identical. Have you done a diff on the working vs. non-working files to see what's different between them? If they're identical, character for character, they should behave the same.
