PutValueToExternalMap
Creates a variable that can be reused in a Job or Route.
Information noteNote: This feature is available only if you have installed the R2021-11 Studio
monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend. For more information, check with
your administrator.
When using a map in a Job, you can use the PutValueToExternalMap function to define a globalMap variable that you can then use in other components.
When using a map in a Route, you can use the PutValueToExternalMap
function to save a value to an external map. You have to create and save the external map in
the execution properties with the identifier
org.talend.transform.externalmap.
Information noteNote: By default the
variable created is a String. To create a variable in another data type, it needs to be
explicitly defined. For example, you can define a variable as a BigInteger using the XPath
function xs:integer(%v).
Arguments
| Key | Specify the name of the variable to create. |
| Value | Specify the value of the variable. |
