Input

Document

• Min: 1

• Max: 1

• JSON Formatter

• Mapper

This Snap allows exactly one input view and expects documents in the view. Each document should have values for one AND clause in the WHERE statement. 

Each document in the input view should contain a Map data of key-value entries. Input data may contain values needed to evaluate expressions in the Object type, Output fields, and Conditions properties.

If the Pass-though on no lookup match property is unchecked, please make sure input data types match column data types in the database table. Otherwise, you may encounter an error message "Cannot find an input data which is related to the output record .....". If the error view is open, all input data in the batch are routed to the error view with the same error information.

Output

• CSV Parser

• JSON Parser

This Snap has exactly one output view and produces documents in the view. The output document includes the corresponding input data under the "original" key. If there are no results from the query, each output field will have a null value.

Each document in the output view contains a Map data of key-value entries, where keys are the Output fields property values. The input data that has produced the corresponding output data is also included in the output data under the "original" key.

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 running the 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 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.

Field Name

Field Type

Description

String

Specify 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.

String/Expression

Specify the database schema name. In case it is not defined, then the suggestion for the Table Name will retrieve all tables names of all schemas. The property is suggestible and will retrieve available database schemas during suggest values.

String/Expression

Specify the name of the table to execute insert on.

Use this fieldset to enter output fields for SQL SELECT statement.

String/Expression

Specify the output field names for SQL SELECT statement. If this property is empty, the Snap selects all fields by executing the statement "SELECT * FROM ..."

Use this fieldset to enter or select the lookup column name. The lookup conditions are created by using the lookup column name and the lookup column value. Each row will build a condition, such as lookupColumn1 = $inputField.

Each additional row will be concatenated using a logical AND. All rows together build the lookup condition being used to lookup records in the lookup table.

String/Expression

Specify the JSON path of the lookup column value. The value will be provided by the input data field.

String/Expression

Specify the lookup column name.

Checkbox

Select when there is no lookup matching an input document, the input document will pass through to the output view if this property is checked. Otherwise, it will be written to the error view as an error condition.

Integer/Expression

Specify the maximum number of retry attempts when the Snap fails to read.

Minimum value: 0

Integer/Expression

Specify the minimum number of seconds the Snap must wait before each retry attempt.

Minimum value: 1

Dropdown list

Conditional. This property applies only when the Snap returns the unique identifier (GUID) in the output.

Specify the unique identifier is stored in the database using an internal format and when it is displayed in the output, it is converted to a string and gets displayed in upper case for HEX characters. Select either of the following options to change the case type. Available options are:

• Convert to lower case: Modifies the output string to lower case.

• Convert to upper case: Modifies the output string to upper case.

Dropdown list

Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:

• Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, 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 that are downstream from it.
