UDT Settings Tab

UDT Settings Tab

Configure the Unstructured Data transformation attributes on the
UDT Settings
tab.
The following table describes the attributes on the
UDT settings
tab:
Attribute
Description
InputType
Type of input data that the Unstructured Data transformation passes to
Data Transformation
Engine. Choose one of the following input types:
  • Buffer. The Unstructured Data transformation receives source data in the InputBuffer port and passes data from the port to
    Data Transformation
    Engine.
  • File. The Unstructured Data transformation receives a source file path in the InputBuffer port and passes the source file path to
    Data Transformation
    Engine.
    Data Transformation
    Engine opens the source file.
OutputType
Type of output data that the Unstructured Data transformation or
Data Transformation
Engine returns. Choose one of the following output types:
  • Buffer. The Unstructured Data transformation returns XML data through the OutputBuffer port unless you configure a relational hierarchy of output ports. If you configure a relational hierarchy of ports, the Unstructured Data transformation does not write to the OutputBuffer port.
  • File.
    Data Transformation
    Engine writes the output to a file. It does not return the data to the Unstructured Data transformation unless you configure a relational hierarchy of ports in the Unstructured Data transformation.
  • Splitting.The Unstructured Data transformation splits a large XML output file into smaller files that can fit in the OutputBuffer port. You must pass the split XML files to the XML Parser transformation.
ServiceName
Name of the
Data Transformation
service to run. The service must be present in the local
Data Transformation
repository.
Streamer Chunk Size
Buffer size of the data that the Unstructured Data transformation passes to
Data Transformation
Engine when the
Data Transformation
service runs a streamer. Valid values are 1-1,000,000 KB. Default is 256 KB.
Dynamic Service Name
Run a different
Data Transformation
service for each input row. When Dynamic Service Name is enabled, the Unstructured Data transformation receives the service name in the Service Name input port.
When Dynamic Service name is disabled, the Unstructured Data transformation runs the same service for each input row. The Service Name attribute in the UDT Settings must contain a service name. Default is disabled.
Status Tracing Level
Set the level of status messages from the
Data Transformation
service.
  • Description Only. Return a status code and a short description to indicate if the
    Data Transformation
    service was successful or if it failed.
  • Full Status. Return a status code and a status message from the
    Data Transformation
    service in XML.
  • None. Do not return status from the
    Data Transformation
    service. Default is none.
Allow Input Flush
Enable Allow Input Flush when you configure input groups of ports.
The Unstructured Data transformation creates XML when it has all the data for a group. Configure the mapping so the transformation receives data that is sorted by group.
When input flush is not enabled, the Unstructured Data transformation stores the data in memory and creates the XML after it receives data for all the groups.
