Mapplets
An Informatica Cloud mapplet is transformation logic that you can create and use to transform source data before it is loaded into the target. You create the logic in a mapplet in PowerCenter. When you configure the mapplet in Informatica Cloud, you import the logic into Informatica Cloud.
You can configure, view, and delete mapplets from the Mapplets page. You cannot delete a mapplet that is used in a task. Remove the mapplet from the task before you delete the mapplet.
You can use mapplets in the following tasks:
- Data Synchronization tasks
- You can use one mapplet in a Data Synchronization task.
- Mapping Configuration tasks
- You can use multiple mapplets in a Mapping Configuration task. You can use mapplets in an integration template or in a mapping.
- Data Masking tasks
- You can use passive mapplets in a Data Masking task to mask target fields.
To work with a mapplet, your organization must have the Mapplet license. For information about getting the Mapplet license, contact Informatica Global Customer Support.
