EmailItem
EvaluateActivity ➡️
⛔ exportItemType	Removed in Aras v11
get, recache ➡️	Gets the Item(s) and its configuration based on the AML Item configuration used to query the database.
getAffectedItems	Returns a flat list of all items that reference a particular item. Similar to the getItemWhereUsed; however, this method will return the relationship item associated with an item while the where used action does not <Item type="Part" id="..." action="getAffectedItems" />
getItemAllVersions	Get all versions (i.e. generations) of an item. It requires an id attribute and does not respect the select attribute. Another way to do this is to search for generations > 0.
getItemConfig	This will return the Item configuration as described by the standard AML query. The AML in and out are no different than the standard action="get". The getItemConfig is optimized by limiting the logic done between the SQL call and the AML result. The performance improvement is gained by limiting the features typically available in Innovator GetItem (no server events or access checking on the sub level Items).
⛔ getHistoryItems	Obsolete in 9.3
GetInheritedServerEvents	(:heavy_plus_sign: Added in Aras v11)
getItemLastVersion ➡️
getItemNextStates ➡️	Returns a list of Life Cycle Transition items representing the transitions that the authenticated user has permissions to perform.

GetItemRepeatConfig ➡️	This will allow deep recursive queries and is useful in multi-Part BOM's with repeating relationships.
getItemWhereUsed ➡️
GetMappedPath	Returns the base directory on the server combined with the path specified in the path attribute Example (Input): <Item action="GetMappedPath" path="Solutions/PLM/images/Icons/16x16/16x16_Part.gif" />
getPermissions ➡️
getRelatedItem
GetUpdateInfo
instantiateWorkflow ➡️
lock	This will lock the Item and is the same as the Item.lockItem() IOM method.
merge	This will act as an edit if the Item exists, otherwise acts as an add.
New Workflow Map

startWorkflow ➡️
unlock	This will lock the Item and is the same as the Item.unlockItem() method.
update ➡️	Updates the Item. It is important to note, that the Item must be locked. Also, if the Item is versionable and is being updated for the first time since being locked, the update versions the Item and applies the update to the new version, unless the version="0" attribute is specified, which disables the versioning.
ValidateWorkflowMap
version ➡️	Creates a new version of an item. The new item remains locked.
