Data Service is currently transitioning to Data Fabric, a process during which you may see both names used for different delivery options.
Known limitations for external source objects, folder-level entities, and Solutions integration in Data Fabric / Data Service.
The following known limitations apply to objects from external sources:
- A single entity cannot hold both locally stored fields and external fields. Locally stored data can be included in a Federated entity by referencing a native Data Fabric entity as a source. For more information, refer to Entity types.
- Data write-back for insert and update operations does not support external sources. A Federated entity is a read-only view, and write operations on it return an error.
- File data from external systems is not supported. A File field can be referenced from a Native source.
- Encrypted fields of a native entity cannot be referenced in a Federated entity. A field with Encrypt Data enabled in its Advanced options is not supported as a Native source field.
The following limitations apply to folder-level entities and Solutions integration:
- Inline entity creation during deploy or upgrade is not supported. Entities must be defined in the Solution package or already exist in the target folder.
- Deploy-time entity override is not supported. Entity overrides are available during debug and at runtime via Package Requirements.
- Overriding a related entity requires that the replacement maintains compatible schema relationships to avoid mismatch errors.
- When overriding a folder-scoped entity in the Query Multiple Entity Records activity, the replacement must have the same name as the original, because filter conditions reference fields by an entity-name prefix.
- Cross-scope relationships between tenant and folder entities are not supported.
- Two entities with the same name cannot be added to the same workflow.
- Cross-folder reference entities cannot be packaged when you create a Solutions project in Orchestrator.
- Folder-level entities are not supported in Unified Projects.
- Standalone VB Apps and RPA (UB) Apps do not support folder-level entities.
- Local Workspace does not support folder-scoped entities via Data Service connector activities. Folder scope is available in cloud workspaces only.
- Schema refresh for federated entities is not supported in legacy activities (Data Service classic package).
