How Scripts Work
A script is a small set of instructions, written in JavaScript. When Connect generates the actual
extraction process, it takes each step, one by one, and runs all scripts for it.
Creating a New Script
In DataMapper, you can use scripts to set Boundaries (see Boundaries Using JavaScript) or in
the Step Properties for steps such as:
l Extraction step where the data selection is based on JavaScript or you can enter a post
function script.
l Action step using the set properties based on JavaScript or you can use JavaScript run
script.
l Condition step where the left and right operands are based on JavaScript.
See Step Propertiesfor more information.
From the Settings or from the Step Properties pane, click the Use JavaScript Editor button.
The Edit script dialog appears:
