mode="merge" in filter.xml not working for ACS Common Generic List

[Shivam153]

Hi, I am trying to use "merge" mode in filter.xml for acs common generic list. When I am adding a new entry, its not getting updated.

<filter root="/etc/acs-commons/lists" mode="merge"/>

Anyone has any context on this one?

@Shivam153  It worked for me with below code. Can you provide the specific list in filter as shown below

<filter root="/etc/acs-commons/lists/xxxx/comparison_table_values" mode="merge"/>

Can you share the acs commons version please.

Hi @Himanshu_Jain  Its 5.4.0

[Himanshu_Jain]

Try mode="merge_properties"

[Shivam153]

I am getting following error @Himanshu_Jain

@Shivam153 

try using 'merge_properties' in the filter xml.

merge has been Deprecated, as not handled consistently, use merge_properties instead, based on the doc below.

I am getting following error when used this:

@Shivam153 

Try using mode="update". It should fix your issue

@Shivam153  Did you find any solution to this issue?

Even the new variant mode="merge_properties" is throwing an error.

@AMANATH_ULLAH Mode=update will override all the changed value on the console.
