Row Denormaliser

Description

The De-normalizer transform allows you de-normalize data by looking up key-value pairs. It also allows you to immediately convert data types.

Options

Transform name Name of the transform. This name has to be unique in a single pipeline.

Key field

The field that defined the key of the output row.

Group fields

Specify the fields that make up the grouping here.

Target fields

Select the fields to de-normalize by specifying the String value for the key field (see above). Options are provided to convert data types. Strings are most common as key-value pairs so you must often convert to Integer, Number or Date. If you get key-value pair collisions (key is not unique for the group specified) specify the aggregation method to use.

Metadata Injection Support

You can use the Metadata Injection supported fields with ETL Metadata Injection transform to pass metadata to your pipeline at runtime. All fields can be injected, the values used for the aggregation field are the following

TYPE_AGGR_NONE

TYPE_AGGR_SUM

TYPE_AGGR_AVERAGE

TYPE_AGGR_MIN
