General description
This Storage get entity from storage Transformer helps retrieve a specific entity from a Storage. This is the preferred approach for larger Storage systems when the identifier is known. If the identifier is unknown, the “Get all entities” Transformer can be used instead. However, this might return a lot of unwanted data that might need to be filtered first. It is recommended to store entities with a good identifier in the Storage so they can be identified easily. For example, using an order number to identify the required entities in the Storage.
