click the field, select Copy to copy the JSON data to the clipboard; then open the
JSON Sample Data dialog and paste the data there.
You can add the following types of JSON data:
l A JSON object or an array of JSON objects representing records. The data type
is derived from the data:
l Any value surrounded with quotes is converted to a field of type String.
l Any numeric value containing a period is converted to a field of type Float.
l Any numeric value that does not contain a period is converted to a field of type
Integer.
l A value "true" or "false" is converted to a field of type Boolean.
If a value in a record object is a JSON object, it is considered to be a nested table
with detail records.
l Typed JSON. This JSON follows the structure of a JSON Record Data List (see the
REST API Cookbook). Field types are determined by the schema object in the
JSON.
3. Review the JSON; you may edit it if you like.
4. Select the Replace Data Model option if you want the JSON to replace the existing Data
Model. Otherwise, the JSON data will be mapped to corresponding fields in the existing
Data Model, and data that cannot be mapped to any field will be discarded.
Note
If a data mapping configuration is open at the same time, the loaded JSON will
always replace the Data Model and no values will be imported.
5. Click Finish.
