Accessingpropertiesandruntimeparameters
Therearedifferentwaystoaccesspropertiesandruntimeparametersinadatamappingworkflow.
l
Property-based fields.Aproperty-basedfieldisfilledwiththevalueofaproperty.See"Prop-
erty-basedfield"onpage266.

"Repeatstep"onpage251).
l
Script.Scriptscanaccesspropertiesthroughthe"DataMapperScriptsAPI"onpage360.(See
also:"UsingscriptsintheDataMapper"onpage362.)
l
ThesourceRecordobjecthasapropertiesarraythatletsyouaccesscustom prop-
ertiesthatareaddedtoeachindividualrecord,i.e.thescopeofthepropertyissettoEach

Thedataobjecthasapropertiesarraythatletsyouaccesscustom propertiesofthe
dataasawhole,i.e.thescopeofthepropertyissettoEntire data.(See:"data"on
page374.)Theseareread-only.

String.Remembertoparsethevalueifnecessary,e.g.beforeusingitinacal-
culation.
Extracting data
DataareextractedviaExtractionstepsintofieldsintheDataModel.Thistopicexplainshowtodothat.
Fieldscanalsobefilledwithotherdata:theresultofaJavaScriptorthevalueofaproperty.Tolearn
