Generators

Generators transform the data in a source database column. You assign the generators to use. Tonic offers a variety of generators to transform different types of data.
For Enterprise instances, generator presets allow you to configure custom configurations of generators that you can then assign to columns.
See also this video overview of generators and how they work.
