They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects. This property may be present in responses from the server, but if it is present in a request to server it will be ignored.
    
    Returns:
    
    The current value of the property.
  - setMarkedForDelete
```
public void setMarkedForDelete(java.lang.Boolean markedForDelete)
```
    Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects. This property may be present in responses from the server, but if it is present in a request to server it will be ignored.
    
    Parameters:
    
    markedForDelete - New value for the property.
  - getOverridden
```
public java.lang.Boolean getOverridden()
```
    Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user. However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take precedence over the globally defined values for the properties. This property may be present in responses from the server, but if it is present in a request to server it will be ignored.
    
    Returns:
    
    The current value of the property.
  - setOverridden
```

    Parameters:
    
    overridden - New value for the property.
  - getCategory
```
public java.lang.String getCategory()
```
    - Distributed Firewall - Policy framework for Distributed Firewall provides four pre-defined categories for classifying a communication map. They are \"Emergency\", \"Infrastructure\", \"Environment\" and \"Application\". Amongst the layer 3 communication maps,there is a pre-determined order in which the policy framework manages the priority of these communication maps. Emergency category has the highest priority followed by Infrastructure, Environment and then Application rules. Administrator can choose to categorize a communication map into the above categories or can choose to leave it empty. If empty it will have the least precedence w.r.t the above four layer 3 categories.
    
    Returns:
    
    The current value of the property.
  - setCategory
```

    Parameters:
    
    category - New value for the property.
  - getCommunicationEntries
```
public java.util.List<CommunicationEntry> getCommunicationEntries()
```
    CommunicationEntries that are a part of this CommunicationMap
    
    Returns:
    
    The current value of the property.
  - setCommunicationEntries
```
public void setCommunicationEntries(java.util.List<CommunicationEntry> communicationEntries)
```
    CommunicationEntries that are a part of this CommunicationMap
    
    Parameters:
    
    communicationEntries - New value for the property.
  - getPrecedence
```
public java.lang.Long getPrecedence()
```
    This field is used to resolve conflicts between communication maps across domains. In order to change the precedence of a communication map one can fire a POST request on the communication map entity with a query parameter action=revise The precedence field will reflect the value of the computed precedence upon execution of the above mentioned POST request. For scenarios where the administrator is using a template to update several communication maps, the only way to set the precedence is to explicitly specify the precedence number for each communication map. If no precedence is specified in the payload, a value of 0 is assigned by default. If there are multiple communication maps with the same precedence then their order is not deterministic. If a specific order of communication map is desired, then one has to specify a unique precedence or use the POST request on the communication map entity with a query parameter action=revise to let the framework assign a precedence format: int32
    
    Returns:
    
    The current value of the property.
