Updating Existing SLAs
When identifying an existing SLA for an update using the Source and SourceID columns as described in the Create or update? section, the SLA will be searched for in the account of the API user.
Relating Multiple Service Instances
For each service instance that is specified in the Service Instances column, Xurrent needs to know whether the service instance will either be ‘down’ or only ‘degraded’ when the service instance that is specified in the Service Instance column is down.
Therefore an extension is used to the standard way of relating to multiple other records:
"Expense Reporting Production / down
SAP Production / degraded"
