General description
The Merger Transformer helps combine the output or partial output from a data Transformer with the existing entity data.
Certain Transformers, like the HTTP Transformer, replaces the entire entity data. The Merger Transformer helps merge the HTTP Transformer’s output into the entity data without losing any existing entity data.
The Merger Transformer enables the integration of output, or parts of it, from a data transformer into the existing entity data without overwriting the original information.
Certain transformers, like the HTTP Transformer, replace all entity data by default. The Merger Transformer allows you to merge the HTTP Transformer’s output into the entity data, preserving the existing information.
The different fields of the Merger Transformer
-
Data Transformer (required field)
This specifies the data Transformer to execute, which will generate the data to be merged. -
Template (required field)
This defines the data object to be merged into the existing entity data. The data returned by the configured data Transformer can be selected using a placeholder query. To keep all the output of the data Transformer, use the placeholder “&{@}”.
