The Assign activity is a light-weight mapping tool.
Function | Description |
---|---|
Assign | Use the Assign function to map data. If the source and target are leaf element nodes, the Assign type is based on the value of the single element specified as the target. If source and target are operation parameters, the Assign type action is actually a graft-like deep copy that transfers all child elements, with their data values, from the target structure to the source structure. Use this function when parameters have identical definitions. |
Graft | Use the Graft function to transfer a subset of the source structure to the target structure when the source and target elements have the same namespaces. This action can be used to combine several document instances into a single document instance, aggregating an entire tree of elements. To map individual source elements, see Creating a Transformation Service. |
Graft Children | Use the Graft Children function to transfer a set of children from the source structure to the target structure when the source and target elements have the same namespaces. This action can be used to combine several child document instances into a single child document instance, excluding the source element itself. To map individual child elements, see Creating a Transformation Service. |
Prune | Use the Prune function to delete elements from the target structure, including all the child elements of a specified element. |
