Use Case
In this example, we will use Additional Files to provide a file to use as a source dataset for a map.
Design
To design a source data set
1. Add the file to your local file system.
2. Create a macro containing the path to the file (e.g., LOCAL REPO).
3. Create your source dataset. Use your macro to specify the location for the file: $(LOCAL_REPO)/myFile.csv
4. Once you are finished testing and have determined that the source file works as intended, change the file location to use the EXECUTION_PATH_HOME macro and then save the source dataset: $(EXECUTION_PATH_HOME)/myFile.csv
5. Package and deploy your project to DataCloud.
Execution on DataCloud
To execute the project
1. In the management console, create a new integration using the package you just deployed.
2. Add the file from your design to the Additional Files for the integration. The file must have the same file name.
3. To provide different versions of the file, you can create multiple configurations and use different files in the Additional Files for each configuration. In each configuration, make sure the file name is identical to the name you provided when you set up your source dataset.
