JSON Generator

The Snap invokes the Eloqua endpoint for the given object type once for each input document, using the document as the content sent to the endpoint. Check the Eloqua API documentation to understand the required and supported fields specific to the object type. Note that the Eloqua documentation is not very complete/accurate in this respect.

Min: 1
Max: 1

Mapper

The Snap produces one document in the view for each successful call to the Eloqua endpoint.

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 while 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 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.
