Before you configure the target, ensure that the connection to the target is created in Administrator for the runtime environment that your organization uses.
From the
Connection
list, select the connection configured for the source application.
The list includes only the connections that are valid for the load type that you selected on the
Definition
page.
After you deploy the ingestion task, you cannot change the connection without undeploying the associated ingestion job. After you change the connection, you must deploy the task again.
Configure the target properties.
For descriptions of the target properties, see the following topics:
If you want to override the default mappings of source data types to target data types, perform the following steps in the
Data Type Rules
section to define data type rules:
In the
Create Rule
fields, enter the source data type for which you want to customize the mapping and then enter the target data type that you want to map to the source data type.
Mass Ingestion Applications
does not support the BYTE and CHAR semantics in data-type mappings rules.
If a source data type has a default value, you must specify it in your rule.
Click
Add Rule
.
The rule is created and appears in the rules list.
You can define multiple data type mapping rules for a target. However, you can define only one rule for a source data type.
After you deploy a task with custom mapping rules, you cannot edit the rules without undeploying the task.
In the
Custom Properties
section, you can specify custom properties that Informatica provides for special cases. To add a property, click the
Add Property
icon, and then add the property name and value.
The custom properties are configured to address unique environments and special use cases.
Specify the custom properties only at the direction of Informatica Global Customer Support.
