Description: | This Snap reads the specified SnapLogic Asset. | |||||||||||||
| Prerequisites: | [None] | |||||||||||||
| Support, limitations and limitationsKnown Issues: | Works in Ultra Task Pipelines. When retrieving account details, if the SnapLogic Account is not in the same project as the pipeline, the SnapLogic Read Snap might incorrectly retrieve details of an account with the same name from a different project, even when you specify the absolute project path. | |||||||||||||
| Account: | Accounts are not used with this Snap. | |||||||||||||

Settings | ||||||||||||||
Label | Required. The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your pipeline. | |||||||||||||
Asset type | Required. Select the type of asset to read.
Default value: ACCOUNT | |||||||||||||
Asset path | Required. Absolute path for the asset in the form of: /<org>/<project_space>/<project>/<asset> Examples: /myorg/Engineering/Status/LatestDefects Default value: [None] | |||||||||||||
| Normalized | Normalizes the Snap output, removing all additional internal information from the output artifact. For example, if you read a Pipeline without selecting this check box, you see fields such as link_serial, update_time, scrub_version, and so on, in the output artifact. The Snap appends these fields to the Snap code. However, when you select this check box, you see only the Snap code, with all such additional information removed. This feature simplifies the task of running a diff between different instances of the same Pipeline in different locations. For example, if the Pipeline is in Development and Production Orgs, the normalized version of both would be the same. Default value: Deselected | |||||||||||||
