Hi Varalaxmi,

 

To set the untyped reference you should be able to use an Update (setProperties SOA) call. The Teamcenter Connector requires that you indeed have the property also on the entity as an attribute, but it sounds like that's already the case.

 

You can use the Teamcenter Extension to create the Update microflow if you're trying to update an Item or ItemRevision, but references are not yet supported. So you need associate a TcConnector.UpdatedPropertiesInput to the object yourself, and a TcConnector.ValuesInput to the TcConnector.UpdatedPropertiesInput.

 

To retrieve the data, you should use another (separate) entity with the property name as an association, with the right BOMapping so that the referenced object is also returned. If your object is an ItemRevision, you could use the Search Item Revision journey from the Teamcenter Extension to generate this.

 

Let me know if this worked for you!
