tSalesforceMarketingOutput Standard properties

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

The Standard tSalesforceMarketingOutput 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 on which the operation will be performed 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.

Click Sync columns to retrieve the schema from the previous component connected in the Job.

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.

Operation type

Select the operation to be performed from the drop-down list.

  • Create: Create a new object in Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
  • Delete: Delete an existing object in Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
  • Perform: Perform an action on an existing object in Salesforce Marketing Cloud. If you select this operation type, you need to select the corresponding action to perform in the Action field. The available actions depend on the selected object type, and you can also enter an action value manually.
  • Schedule: Schedule an action on an existing object in Salesforce Marketing Cloud. If you select this operation type, you need to select or enter the corresponding action and scheduling details such as start and end date, occurrence, recurrence, interval, etc.
  • Update: Update an existing object type in Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

SOAP elements

Specify the SOAP elements in the form of element path-value pairs. You can select the Element path ID in the list generated from the incoming schema, and you can use JSON format, plain text, and context variables in the Value field.

Example:

Element path = /name and Value = {.name}

or

Element path = /characterSet and Value = UTF-8
