Custom metadata and Output mapping can also be used.

Metadata

The ReferenceDataSetReader component propagates metadata on the output port. Metadata is created based on the layout of the selected data set.

If different metadata is used, the mapping from data set’s metadata to the metadata on the output port can be done via the Output mapping component attribute.

Attribute Req Description Possible values

Basic

Data Set

Data set to read from. Clicking on the select button will show all reference data sets available on the Server.
Data set is identified by its code. The code is assigned to the data set when it is created and does not change when the data set is renamed.

Record status

Allows you to filter the records based on their status. Default value is Enabled.

All (any status)
Enabled (default)
Disabled

Output mapping

Allows you to map data read from the data set to the output port. By default, this is set to Map by name and fields with matching names and types will be mapped automatically. This is consistent with the common usage where the metadata on output port 0 is auto-propagated and will match the data set exactly.

Details

ReferenceDataSetReader connects to an instance of Data Manager running on the same Server as the component and returns data from the selected reference data set.

The component returns only published data - records approved by the Data Approver user in the Data Manager. If a record in the data set is new and not approved yet, component will not return that record. If a record in the data set was approved, but contains pending (not approved) changes, component will return only approved data.
