Reltio Delete (URI)

On this Page

Snap Type:Write
Description:

This Snap is used to delete records associated with the Reltio Objects (Entities/ Relations/ Categories) from the mentioned Tenant based on the URI configured. It also supports the bulk operation by using Bulk Delete functionality. The Reltio Delete (URI) Snap cannot be used for deleting Interactions since they are transaction based data and cannot be deleted.

ETL Transformations and Data Flow

The Reltio Delete (URI) Snap extract's (or deletes) the corresponding data from the Reltio tenant. 

Input & Output

  • InputInput view is optional and is required only to pass the URI from upstream snap or value in that field.
  • Output: Response for the snap contains either success or error based on the URI deleted or not.

Modes

Prerequisites:Reltio account with a valid Tenant Id so that Tenant URL can be formed/API for Account Settings. Also, the Reltio account must have sufficient access in order to be able to delete Objects in Tenant.
Limitations and Known Issues:

You cannot roll back the productized Reltio Snap Pack in 4.20 to a prior version.

Configurations:

Account & Access

This Snap uses account references created on the Accounts page of SnapLogic Manager to handle access to this endpoint. See Reltio Account for information on setting up this type of account.

Views

InputThis Snap has exactly one document input view.
OutputThis Snap has exactly one document output view.
ErrorThis Snap has at most one document error view and produces zero or more documents in the view.
Troubleshooting:None at the moment.

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.

Tenant URL

Required. This determines the Reltio host with Tenant Id. The format to be used is https://<reltio_host>/api/tenant_id>.

Examplehttps://test.reltio.com/reltiotest/api/XKiqdracb178fmuXYr3U7ZrG6/

Default value: https://<your_reltio_host>/reltio/api/<tenant_id>


This value can be provided dynamically as a pipeline parameter or directly in the Snap but not as an upstream parameter. 

URI

RequiredThis describes the actual Object which needs to be deleted based on the URI parameter. For example: “uri”: “entities/abcd1234” is a part of Reltio object (Entity here).

Also if the Bulk delete property is enabled, then multiple entities' URIs can be provided separated by commas.

Default value: [None]

Bulk delete

This property enables deleting multiple Entities at a time.

Default value: Not selected

Retry limit

Specify the maximum number of attempts to get the response. 

Minimum value: 1
Maximum value: 10

Default Value: 5

You can provide this value dynamically as a Pipeline parameter or directly in the Snap, but not as an upstream value. 

Batch size

Specifies the number of records that you want the Snap to process in a single API call.

Default value: 1

Minimum value: 1

Maximum value: 2,147,483,647


This value can be provided dynamically as a pipeline parameter or directly in the Snap, but not as an upstream parameter. 

Thread limit

Required. Specifies the maximum threads of this Snap to delete the Reltio Objects.

Minimum value: 1

Maximum value: 50

Default value: 20

This value can be provided dynamically as a pipeline parameter or directly in the Snap, but not as an upstream parameter. 

Snap execution

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.

Examples


Basic Use Case

The following pipeline describes how the Snap functions as a standalone Snap in a pipeline:

The Snap is configured with the following parameters:

An example of the output from executing this pipeline:


Typical Snap Configurations

Key configuration of the Snap lies in how the values are passed. The values can be passed:

  • Without Expression:

Values are passed directly into the Snap:

  • With Expression:
    • Using pipeline parameters:

Values are passed as pipeline parameters:

  

Advanced Use Case

The following describes a pipeline, with a broader business logic involving multiple ETL transformations, that shows how typically in an enterprise environment, the Reltio functionality is used. The pipeline download is available in the Downloads section.

This pipeline retrieves the data from the Oracle Database and loads into the Reltio instance.


The key ETL transformations: 

Extract: The Oracle Select Snap retrieves the data from Oracle database.

Transform: The Head and the Mapper Snaps maps the specific data to be moved into the Reltio instance.

Load: The Reltio Create Snap creates the entities from the documents received from the upstream.

The pipeline further uses the Reltio Merge, Unmerge  and the Delete Snaps to perform the respective functions while transforming ( the JSON Splitter, Mapper and the Head Snaps) the data to serve the various business purposes.

Downloads

Important steps to successfully reuse Pipelines

  1. Download and import the pipeline into the SnapLogic application.
  2. Configure Snap accounts as applicable.
  3. Provide pipeline parameters as applicable.
