Custom Object Design
The data field types supported are business-centric including: text (including currency, numbers, decimals, percentage, phone numbers, URL, and email), multi-line text, rich text areas, relational lookups to other objects, checkboxes, multiple checkboxes, picklists, global picklists, multi-select picklists, dependent picklists, dates, times, radio buttons, auto-numbers, files, images and formula fields. The formula field type includes the ability to use spreadsheet-level math, text, date, and logical functions from other fields.
Web Services RESTful API
The LongJump Web Services API (application programming interface) offers a programmatic interface between LongJump and third-party web application or web services to get and put LongJump data.
The LongJump web services API uses REST-based XML calls to:
- open a secure session into the platform
- view, add, delete, update objects, fields and records
- search across objects
- use POST and GET commands to submit and retrieve data

Custom Java-Based Scripting
The custom scripting facility, based on Java language conventions, for data policies enables the creation of a virtually unlimited set of action macros within the LongJump application platform. Developers can use our global defined function calls as well as create their own functions to perform a variety of automated actions based on the criteria specified by the data policy.
For instance, these scripts can be written to copy or transfer data from one object to another, mass changing data sets for data cleansing and normalization purposes, or convert field types on the fly.
Custom scripts can be set to run when:
- A user interface event is received from browser (e.g. adding/updating/deleting an object record, changing owner of a record, etc.)
- A calendar-based data policy is executed
- A web service call is made to add/update/delete an object record, etc.
SOAP XML Connectivity
LongJump's platform supports delivery of SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages using its data policy engine. You can define comprehensive data policies using the browser interface to detect changes in data and drive an XML SOAP message to another external system.
