Libraries | Profiles relationship

[mukherr]

Hello; 

Similarly to the Permission Export feature in Tealium Custom Tools, is there something can automagically provide me with a list of profile and their associated / linked libraries? 

Thanks,

So, @mukherr, this will give you a quick view of which profiles inherit from which libraries, just paste it into the dev tools console in Chrome or similar while logged into TIQ:

var p = utui.profile.import._profiles;
var op = "";
for(var k in p){
  op += p[k].name;
  for(var i = 0; i < p[k].imports.length; i++){
    op += "\n  " + p[k].imports[i].name;
  }
  op += "\n\n";
}
console.log(op);

Alternatively, this will give you a CSV that contains all relationships to stick into a graph database:

var p = utui.profile.import._optionalLibraries;
var op = "Profile,Library";
for(var k in p){
  for(var i = 0; i < p[k].imports.length; i++){
    op += "\n" + p[k].imports[i].name + "," + p[k].name;
  }
}
console.log(op);

Explore the _profiles, _optionalLibraries and _requiredLibraries properties of the utui.profile.import object in the TIQ UI for more detail..

could there be an issue of the s in import vs. imports, @UnknownJ. This does not seem to work for me,

Also, as a stopgap, I did a JSON.stringify(utui.profile.import._profiles), which provided me a really ugly blob which I beautified outside. The JSON contains provides the Profiles and the subset of libs

So it turns out that the reason why it wasn't working is because we have profiles with no libs (as we are still building our solution). By excluding the profile with no libs, we were able to pull the necessary data.

Ah good to know @mukherr. That's an interesting solution. Thank you for coming back and letting us and future readers know!
