Creating Integrations
The Design environment provides for the creation and management of data integration designs. Data integrations enable the transformation and migration of data by visually mapping fields between a defined source and target.
Once an integration has been created, it can be run manually or scheduled for execution. When scheduled for execution it is deployed as a configuration (see
Managing Configurations) within the Manage environment (see
Manage). All execution results and metadata related to the deployed configuration can be viewed and managed within the Design environment. To manage integrations, see
Managing Integrations.
A new integration can be created by following the steps in our guided workflow. The steps include:
1. Describe – Name your integration.
2. Define Source – Provide the source connection details.
3. Define Target – Provide the target connection details.
4. Mapping – Map the source and target fields.
Navigation between pages of the guided workflow is possible by using the Back and Continue buttons at the bottom of the page. Navigating between pages will not clear data that has been entered by the user. When navigation to other pages is not possible, the button will fade in color and will not be active. You can exit the process anytime without saving any information by clicking Cancel.
