Load Template Process

Load Template Process

You create a load template to define how to load metadata from metadata source files into a custom resource. Use mmcmd to generate a default load template. After you generate the default load template, you can update it based on the content of the metadata source files.
To create a load template, perform the following steps:
  1. Generate the default load template file using the mmcmd generateDefaultLoadTemplate command.
    When you generate the default load template, by default, you also generate metadata source files based on the defined custom model. The generated files do not contain any custom metadata.
  2. Populate the metadata source files with custom metadata.
  3. If required, update the default load template.
    You might need to update the load template to create additional associations or lineage associations, or to change the references to column headers in the metadata source file that changed when you populated the custom metadata.
After you create the load template, upload it on the
Model
tab in Metadata Manager.
You can also manually create a load template based on the model.
