The task definition command options are the syntax that identifies the sources and targets that constitute a task. The syntax provides the detail specifications on record layout, component fields, filters, conditions, various key or join field information, field and column reformatting, and field level transformation functions. These detail specifications enable the transformation of source data to target output through aggregate, copy, join, merge, and sort processes.

Note: C style comments, for example, /* comment */, are supported.

Connect ETL task definition command options are outlined within task definition files, which are executed as tasks when made accessible to and run by Connect ETL. One task definition file is required for each task definition.

To reference the available task definition command options, see Connect ETL Task Definition Command Options.
