General properties

General properties

You can specify the following general properties for a taskflow:
Property
Description
Name
Required. A descriptive name to identify the taskflow.
Taskflows saved in different folders can have the same name.
The name can't exceed 80 characters and can't contain the keyword
schema
as a prefix.
Override API Name
Optional. Overrides the API name that is auto generated when you publish the taskflow with a name that you specify. When you select this option, the
API Name
field becomes available.
API Name
Required if you select the
Override API Name
option.
A unique API name to override the auto-generated API name for the taskflow. The API name that you specify in this field is used in the generated service URLs.
The API name can contain only alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), and hyphens (-), and must not exceed 80 characters.
To change the API name of a published taskflow, you must first unpublish the taskflow. Then, change the API name and republish the taskflow.
If you override the API name and import the taskflow, the imported taskflow uses the API name that you specified. However, if there is an existing taskflow with the same API name that you specified, Data Integration uses an auto-generated API name for the copied or imported taskflow to avoid duplication. Data Integration also disables the
Override API Name
field. Similarly, if you copy the taskflow, Data Integration uses an auto-generated API name for the copied taskflow to avoid duplication and also disables the
Override API Name
field.
If you override the API name and move the taskflow to a different location, Data Integration retains the API name that you specified.
Location
The project and folder in which you want to save the taskflow. Click
Select
to navigate to a folder.
You must create a project and folder before you create a taskflow. You cannot create a project or folder from the taskflow creation page.
If the
Explore
page is currently active and a project or folder is selected, the default location for the asset is the selected project or folder. Otherwise, the default location is the location of the most recently saved asset.
Description
A description of the taskflow.
