Input File Parameters

Input File Parameters

Most Cloud Data Integration transformations require the file path of an input file to be passed from the Source transformation to the transformation. The integrated Cloud Data Integration mapping must use a flat file source connection and a source object that are parameterized to support integration with
B2B Data Exchange
, so we cannot obtain the input file path directly from the source connection.
To enable the Cloud Data Integration mapping to obtain the input file path, you create an Expression transformation parameter for the input file parameter, and use the Expression transformation to pass the input file path to the downstream transformation in the mapping.
Create an expression parameter named
Prop_DxInputFilePath
 of type
output field
 in the Expression transformation.
B2B Data Exchange
 automatically populates the value for this parameter during runtime. The parameter is read-only and hidden in the
B2B Data Exchange
 Operations Console by default as the value for this parameter is passed automatically during runtime.
