Structure Parser field mapping

Structure Parser field mapping

Configure the field mapping in a Structure Parser transformation to define which fields in the source transformation to map to fields in the Structure Parser transformation. Configure field mappings on the
Field Mapping
tab of the
Properties
panel.
The Structure Parser contains the following Field Mapping fields in the
Structure Parser Input Fields
panel:
Data
Used to map the data field in the source transformation to the data field in the Structure Parser transformation. Map this field for a Hadoop Files source and for a Structure Parser transformation that is used midstream.
File Path
Used to map the file path or reference file in the source transformation to the file path field in the Structure Parser transformation.
You can configure the following field mapping options:
Field Map Options
Determines how field names appear in the Structure Parser transformation input fields list. Use technical field names or labels.
Select one of the following options:
  • Manual. Manually link incoming fields to target fields. Removes links for automatically mapped fields.
  • Automatic. Automatically link fields with the same name. Use when all of the fields that you want to link share the same name. You can't manually link fields with this option.
You can't use parameterized field names with the Structure Parser transformation. Do not select the options
Completely Parameterized
or
Partially Parameterized
.
Automap
Links fields with matching or similar names. Allows you to link matching fields, and then manually configure other field mappings.
Show Fields
Controls the fields that appear in the
Incoming Fields
list. Show all fields, unmapped fields, or mapped fields.

For a Hadoop Files source

For a Hadoop Files source, map the
Data
and the
File Path
fields in the
Incoming Field
panel to the same fields in the
Structure Parser Input Fields
panel. You can use the
Automap
option to automatically map these fields.

For a flat file source

For a flat file source, map the field in the
Incoming Field
panel to the
File Path
field in the
Structure Parser Input Fields
panel.

For a Structure Parser transformation that is used midstream

When using a Structure Parser transformation midstream, that is not after the source transformation, map the incoming data ports to fields in the
Structure Parser Input Fields
panel.
