A record producer enables users to create task-based records, such as an incident record, in apps you create in App Engine Studio (AES) without creating a request. It enables a better end-user experience by standardizing requests using a simplified form.
Before you begin
Create a data table that the record producer will add a new record to when a user fills out the form. For more information, Create a data model for your application.
Role required: App Engine Studio user role and delegated developer permissions. For more information, see Delegate developers using AES.
About this task
A record producer is a simplified type of catalog item displays a form that users will fill out that will insert a new data record in a selected custom target table that you set up. This type of catalog item enables users to create task-based records, such as an incident record (without any of the more complex functionality that comes with using a standard catalog item (e.g., creating requests). Use a record producer when you want the service catalog form to create a simplified type of record that isn't a request (e.g., a task record such as an incident, change, or enhancement, etc.). When you add a record producer, you create a basic version of the record producer. You must then continue editing it in Catalog Builder before it's ready to deploy.
