map_workspace

Send data to a workspace in Explore&Present

This guide explains how to configure the map_workspace instruction. To learn about another instruction, go back to the Available custom script instructions overview.

Introduction

Use the map_workspace instruction to send data to a different workspace in Explore&Present.

Creating a custom script enrichment using the map_workspace instruction

To create and configure a custom script using the map_workspace instruction, follow these steps:

Create a custom script enrichment.
In the Instructions step, select the map_workspace instruction.
To configure the custom script instruction, fill in the following fields. Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).

Mapped column name

Enter the name of the column in the data extract that contains the source values to be mapped.

Workspace Mapping

Enter the name of the workspace mapping table to use in the enrichment.

Missing

Select what Adverity does if a value in the data extract is not present in the MATCH column of the mapping table. Select one of the following options:

Select ignore to ignore the missing mapping entry and continue with the enrichment process.
Select create to create a new entry in the mapping table and continue with the enrichment. The MATCH column of the new entry is populated with the new value found in the data extract that is missing from the mapping table. By default, the VALUE column is left empty. However, you can enter a value in the Alternative field of the instruction which populates the VALUE column when the create feature is used. For example, if a data extract contains a value not present in the mapping table and the Alternative field contains the text 'Match not found', then the data in the new column is populated with the text Match not found.
Select stop to stop the enrichment process. A new column is not created in the data extract and an error message is shown in the datastream overview.
Select create,stop to populate the new column with the value from the data extract that is missing from the mapping table and stop the enrichment process.

Errors

To configure Adverity's behavior when an error occurs during the enrichment process, select one of the following:

Select ignore to ignore the error and continue the enrichment process.
Select raise to notify you about the error and continue the enrichment process.

Notify

Select this checkbox to send notifications to users subscribed to the Datastream and Enrichment Issues and Mapping topics. For more information on setting up notifications, see Managing user notifications. Customize the text in the notifications using the Comment field.

If

Enter a python expression. The python expression looks at each row in the data extract and if a particular row is evaluated as TRUE, then the mapping is applied to that row.

Comment

Enter text to include in the notifications or error messages. The text must be entered as a Python expression. For example, to include the text Cannot find value: [name of value] in Data Extract, enter the following Python expression:

'Cannot find value: %s in Data Extract' %{sourcefield_column_name}

In this example, replace sourcefield_column_name with the name of the column in the data extract that contains the source values. You must contain the name of the column within braces {}.

Alternative

Enter a value to populate the new column of the data extract if a value in the Sourcefield column cannot be matched to a value in the mapping table. The text must be entered as a Python expression. For example, to populate the column with a value Invalid, enter the Python expression 'Invalid'. Alternatively, to populate the column with a value of the column date, enter the expression {date}.
