    Each output document contains details associated with the outcome of the Oracle HCM instance.

    If the Snap fails during the operation, it sends an error document to the error view containing the fields error, reason, resolution, and stacktrace. However, you must enable the Error view to view the error document.

    Error

    Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter

    when

    while running the

    pipeline

    Pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab:

    • Stop Pipeline Execution: Stops the current pipeline execution

    if
    • when the Snap encounters an error.

    • Discard Error Data and Continue: Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records.

    • Route Error Data to Error View: Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.

    • Select the <category> that you want to use. Available options are...

      Select one of the three following modes in which the Snap executes:
      * Validate & Execute. Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation, then performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
      * Execute only. Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
      * Disabled. Disables the Snap and all Snaps downstream from it.

    Check boxes:

    • If selected, <Snap behavior>.
      If selected, an empty file is written when the incoming document has no data.

    • If selected, <behavior>. If not selected/Otherwise, <behavior>
      Use "If not selected" if the first sentence is long.
      If selected, the Snap uses the file path value as is. Otherwise, the Snap uses the file path value in the URL.
      If selected, an empty file is written when the incoming document has empty data. If there is no incoming document at the input view of the Snap, no file is written regardless of the value of the property.

    • Select to <action>
      Use this if the behavior is binary. Either this or that, where the converse behavior is apparent/obvious.
      Select to execute the Pipeline during validation.

    Text Fields

    The number of seconds for which the Snap waits between retries. Use the following special values:
    * 0: Disables batching.
    * 1: Includes all documents in a single request.

    Notes in field descriptions

    • Confluence’s new editor does not allow nesting of most macros inside another macro, especially the Note/Alert/Warning/Info (Panel) macros inside a table macro and Excerpt macros inside Expand or Panel Macro+ macros. So, as a workaround use the Footnotes approach as mentioned below:

      • Assign numbers at the Note locations in the form of follow through phrases like See Note 2 below this table. or such.

      • Add your Notes---an appropriate Note/Alert/Warning/Info (Panel) macro---immediately below the macro (for example, Table macro) beginning the content with the corresponding number assigned.

    Excluding Fields from the Input Data Stream

    We can exclude the unrequired fields from the input data stream by omitting them in the Input schema fieldset. This example demonstrates how we can use the <Snap Name> to achieve this result:
