The PowerCenter Repository Service imports Informatica Analyst objects after a data integration analyst exports the mapping specification logic from the Analyst tool.
If the data integration analyst exports the mapping specification and selects a target during export, the Repository Service imports the following objects:
Sources
Target
Mapplet
The export process creates a mapping that uses the mapplet as a source and the exported target, a non-reusable session that contains the mapping, and a workflow that contains the non-reusable session. Create the connection objects for the sources and target before running the workflow.
If the data integration analyst exports the mapping specification and does not select a target during export, the Repository Service imports the following objects:
Sources
Mapplet
Create a mapping that uses the mapplet as a source and use a target. Create the session, workflow, and connection objects for the sources and target.
