tSalesforceMarketingInput Standard properties

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

The Standard tSalesforceMarketingInput component belongs to the Business and the Cloud families.

The component in this framework is available in all Talend products.

Basic settings

Property Type

Either Built-In or Repository.

  • Built-In: No property data stored centrally.
  • Repository: Select the repository file in which the properties are stored. The connection fields that follow are completed automatically using the data retrieved.

Use an existing connection

Select this check box and in the Component List drop-down list, select the desired connection component to reuse the connection details you already defined.

Note that when a Job contains the parent Job and the child Job, Component List presents only the connection components in the same Job level.

Object type

Click the [...] button next to the field and in the dialog box displayed, select the object type that will be used or select the Use custom value check box and specify an object type manually in the Custom value field.

Schema and Edit 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.

Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

  • View schema: choose this option to view the schema only.

  • Change to built-in property: choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

  • Update repository connection: choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion.

    If you just want to propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata again in the Repository Content window.

This component offers the advantage of the dynamic schema feature. This allows you to retrieve unknown columns from source files or to copy batches of columns from a source without mapping each column individually. For further information about dynamic schemas, see Dynamic schema.

This dynamic schema feature is designed for the purpose of retrieving unknown columns of a module and is recommended to be used for this purpose only; it is not recommended for the use of creating modules.
