Manually map source objects in transformations in Jitterbit Integration Studio

Introduction

You can manually map source objects to a target field. When you map a source object, its reference path is inserted into a script on the target field. For automatic mapping of a source object to a target field, see Map identical structures.

Map to a target field

Source fields can be manually mapped by dragging and dropping, double-clicking, or manually inserting the source object's reference path:

• Drag and drop: From the Source tab on the left or from the Source Objects tab in the script component palette drag a source object to an appropriate target field.

• Double-click: Double-click the source object in the Source Objects tab to insert the object's reference at your cursor's location within the script.

• Manual insertion: Hover over the target field and click Expand or Add custom value to open the editable script area for the target field:

  

Map to a field with an existing mapping

When dragging and dropping a source object to a target field that already has a mapping, you are presented with the option to copy the source object reference to your clipboard so that you can manually paste that reference into the script logic:

On clicking Continue, the target field becomes expanded with an editable script area for you to paste in the source object reference. For mappings that contain multiple references, you must then add scripting logic to make the script valid.

When adding additional source object references, the dialog for copying a source field reference is not presented. However, you can add multiple source reference paths into the editable script area by dragging and dropping or manually inserting the references.
