Structure Parser Field Mapping
Configure the field mapping in a Structure Parser transformation to define which fields in the source transformation to map to fields in the Structure Parser transformation. Configure field mappings on the Field Mapping tab of the Properties panel.
The Structure Parser contains the following Field Mapping fields in the Structure Parser Input Fields panel:
- Data
- Used to map the data field in the source transformation to the data field in the Structure Parser transformation. Map this field only for a Complex File Connector source transformation.
- File Path
- Used to map the file path or reference file in the source transformation to the file path field in the Structure Parser transformation.
You can configure the following field mapping options:
- Automatch
- Links fields with matching names. Allows you to link matching fields, and then manually configure other field mappings.
- Show Fields
- Controls the fields that appear in the Incoming Fields list. Show all fields, unmapped fields, or mapped fields.
- Show
- Determines how field names appear in the Structure Parser transformation input fields list. Use technical field names or labels.
For a Complex File Connector Source Transformation
If a Complex File Connector is the source transformation, map the Data and the File Path fields in the Incoming Field panel to the same fields in the Structure Parser Input Fields panel. You can use the Automatch option to automatically map these fields.
For a Flat File Source Transformation
If a Flat File is the source transformation, map the field in the Incoming Field panel to the File Path field in the Structure Parser Input Fields panel.
