Data Sources

Updated January 9, 2025

Data Sources represent the primary definition and structure of data used for input and/or output within the Constituo Integration Suite. Each data source includes the detailed properties of the physical data associated with the data source so that it may be read from and/or written to. The data source also includes the definition of each data field so that they may be referenced within a map or workflow.

Configuration Tab

Use the Configuration tab to set the properties, store a sample file, and define the columns of the data source. The configuration varies based on the data source type you are adding.

Script Tab

The script tab includes a procedure explorer, debug and watch accordions for debugging and testing, and a versatile text editor with several standard features you would expect from a code editor.

Explorer Accordion

The explorer accordion displays all of the procedures within the script data source.

  • You can navigate to any procedure by clicking the procedure in the accordion.

  • Procedures with errors are displayed with a red X instead of the procedure icon.

  • The Entry Point procedure (will be run first) is marked with an asterisk after the name.
