tBatchAddressRowCloud Standard properties

These properties are used to configure tBatchAddressRowCloud running in the Standard Job framework.

The Standard tBatchAddressRowCloud component belongs to the Data Quality family.

This component is available in Talend Data Management Platform, Talend Big Data Platform, Talend Real Time Big Data Platform, Talend Data Services Platform, Talend MDM Platform and Talend Data Fabric.

Basic settings

Schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields (columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the fields.

 

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component only.

 

Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.

Edit Schema

Click the [...] button and define the input and output schema of the address data.

The output schema of tBatchAddressRowCloud proposes several read-only address columns including a VerificationLevel column which provides you with a verification status of the processed address. The verification levels in this column are defined by Talend . For further information, see Address verification levels in tAddressRowCloud.

Also some of the output columns could be empty depending on what address provider you select in the component basic settings when executing the Job.

Address Provider

Select from the list the provider of the reference data against which you want to validate and format addresses.

The list of address providers includes Loqate and MelissaData.

Default Country

Select the country name for which the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code should be used when parsing data and if no identifiable country is found in an input record.

License/API key

Enter the license or the API key provided by the address provider you select from the list.

You must visit the provider website, register and get the license/API key.

Batch job name

Enter, between quotation marks, a name of your choice to give to the batch files that will be generated and saved on the Loqate server. These files hold the results of batch processing.

This option only appears if Loqate is the selected address provider.

Number of rows in each batch file

Enter the number of address records you want to group in each batch file.

This option only appears if Loqate is the selected address provider.

Information noteNote: If MelissaData is the selected address provider, 100 rows are sent in each batch file.

Loqate website login

Enter your login provided by Loqate.

This option only appears if Loqate is the selected address provider.

Loqate website password

Enter the password provided by Loqate.

This option only appears if Loqate is the selected address provider.

Processing Mode

This option is applied only to the Loqate provider.

Select from the list the mode of address validation you want to have:

Verify and Geocode (selected by default): with this mode, the component standardizes and corrects addresses and enriches them with latitude and longitude information.
Information noteNote: Combining address verification and geocoding will use extra credits. For more information, see the Loqate pricing

-Verify only: with this mode, the component standardizes and corrects addresses without enriching them with latitude and longitude information.

This option only appears if Loqate is the selected address provider.

Input Mapping

Address field: add lines to the table and select from the predefined address list the fields that will hold input addresses.

tBatchAddressRowCloud provides a long list of address fields because some countries have more complex address structures than others. For further information about the input fields, see Address fields in tLoqateAddressRow .

Input Column: add lines to the table and select from the list the columns that hold the input addresses. The input schema can have one or multiple columns and can have columns that do not represent address data.

Use Additional Output

Select this check box and use the Output Mapping table to add more address columns to the output schema:

Address field: add lines to the table and select from a predefined address list the fields of the extra information you want to output.

These predefined address fields vary according to the provider you select from the Address Provider list. For further information about the additional address fields, check the provider website.

Output Column: select from the list the columns that will hold the additional addresses information. You must first add these additional columns to the tBatchAddressRowCloud output schema through the Edit Schema button.

tBatchAddressRowCloud maps the values of the address fields to the output columns in the Output Column.

If you select to have an output column in the Output Address table that has the exact name of an input column, the input column value will be overwritten by the value given by the component.

Advanced settings

Fields in this view will vary according to the address provider you select in the basic settings view.

Address Line Separator: define the string which will separate the output address components within the output address fields.

If you keep the default option, Default in this field, the component uses the line separator according to the address provider you select: for example, it uses the line break string (<BR>) with Loqate and ; with MelissaData.

Forced Country: select the country name for which the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code should be used for all input records when parsing data.

Output Script: select the transliterate language of the output address.

The script list differs according to the address provider you select.

When the address provider is Loqate or MelissaData:

If you keep the default option, Not set in this field, the component checks the input data and decide to use Native or Latin according to whether the bigger portion of input is Native or Latin.

Select Latin to encode the parsing results in Latin, or western characters.

Select Native/Match input to encode the parsing results using the country script wherever possible.

The Native/Match input script includes the following supported character sets (scripts) and languages tBatchAddressRowCloud can transliterate:

  • Cyrl - Cyrillic (Russia)
  • Grek - Greek (Greece)
  • Hebr - Hebrew (Israel)
  • Hani - Kanji (Japan)
  • Hans - simplified Chinese (China)
  • Arab - Arabic (United Arab Emirates)
  • Thai - Thai (Thailand)
  • Hang - Hangul (South Korea)

Minimum match score: set the minimum match score a record must reach in order not to be reverted. The default value is zero, and valid values are between zero and 100.

This option is very helpful when you want to get, in the output fields, the input data if a specific level of verification (minimum match score) was not reached.

Minimum interval between two queries (milliseconds): set in millisecond the minimum wait period between two queries.

Limit of retrying the same query in case it fails (times): set the number of times a query should be retried in case of failure.

Interval between two retries of the same query (milliseconds): set in millisecond the minimum wait period between two tries of the same query.

Delay before forcing the termination of the query executor (seconds): set in seconds the wait period before forcing the query executor to shut down.

Use mockup mode (no credit consumption)

Before being able to use this option, you must run your Job at least once to create batch files on the Loqate server.

This option is only for testing or for development needs. You will not be charged for batch processing if you select to run the Job with this option.

Select this check box to simulate execution and responses from the Loqate server by using as output a batch file that has been previously processed and saved on the server.

Batch ID: set the identifier of the batch file you want to use as input in your Job.

You can get the file identifier if you log in at Loqate and access the Loqate server.

tStat Catcher Statistics

Select this check box to collect log data at the component level.

Global Variables

Global Variables

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This variable functions only if the Die on error check box is cleared, if the component has this check box.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl + Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see Talend Studio User Guide.

Usage

Usage rule

This component is an intermediary step. It requires an input and output flows.
