Resource container field output

This plug-in can be used in transformations to import list and table fields for resources into ConSol CM.

The following settings are available:

  • Step name: Specify the name of the transformation step. The default name is the name of the plug-in.

  • Resource ID field: Specify the name of the field which contains the ID of the resource retrieved in the previous transformation steps (see Resource ID lookup).

  • Resource category: Select the resource category.

  • Resource type: Select the resource type from the resource category. The data fields of this resource type are available in the mapping table.

  • Batch size: Specify how many resources are imported in one step. The input file needs to contain one row for each resource.

  • Input field value: This column includes the fields of the previous transformation step. These fields can be mapped to the resource fields which belong to fields of the data type List or Columns (struct).

  • Resource field: The available resource fields which belong to fields of the data type List or Columns (struct) from the selected resource type are provided for mapping to the input fields.

  • Business key: For updates, the plug-in needs to identify existing values. All fields with the value Y are combined to find them (if all fields have the value N, new fields will be created). The business key has to be unique.

  • Operation type: Select how the fields should be processed. The available values are:

    • Create: A field of this type is created, but not updated.

    • Update: A field of this type is updated, but not created.

    • Create or update: A field of this type is created (if the field is not found or the Business key set to N), or updated (if the field is found and the Business Key is set to Y).
