How to configure

Adding a sub-generator

To assign a generator to a path expression:

  1. Under Sub-generators, click Add Generator. On the sub-generator configuration panel, the Cell JSON field contains a sample value from the source database. You can use the previous and next icons to page through different values.

  2. In the Path Expression field, type the JSONPath expression to identify the value to apply the generator to. To populate a path expression, you can also click a value in the Cell JSON field. Matched JSON Values shows the result from the value in Cell JSON.

  3. By default, the selected generator is applied to any value that matches the expression. To limit the types of values to apply the generator to, from the Type Filter, specify the applicable types. You can select Any, or you can select any combination of String, Number, and Null.

  4. From the Generator Configuration dropdown list, select the generator to apply to the path expression. You cannot select another composite generator.

  5. Configure the selected generator. You cannot configure the selected generator to be consistent with another column.

  6. To save the configuration and immediately add a generator for another path expression, click Save and Add Another. To save the configuration and close the add generator panel, click Save.

  • To edit a generator assignment, click the edit icon.
