Table 1. Changes in this topic
Change type Description
Introduced in version 3.18 A Publish To Data Flow Outputs node is now available for use in data flows.

Populates defined Data Flow Outputs, making them accessible via REST API calls.

Properties

PublishToOutputs

Configure the table to assign values to the outputs defined in the data flow.

In Output column: Choose a defined output from a dropdown grid/library node or type in a defined output name.
Note: For a defined output name, the corresponding data flow output must exist.

In Publish column: Choose what the defined output value should be. Publish types need to match the types defined in Data flow panel.

In Value/Field column: This option is only applicable for Value from First Record, Value from Last Record, and Literal. Select or enter the field name from the input to retrieve the value. For Literal, type in the value.

For a Dataset, the Managed flag indicates whether the files containing the Dataset values are managed by the application. Managed datasets will be deleted by the application when the run is cleared or deleted. The default value is true.

DataSetOutputTargetLocation

Optionally specify the directory where the dataset file will be written to. The directory must exist. If not specified then the dataset file will be written to your system's default location.

OverwriteBehavior

Optionally specify if the Data Flow Output parameter value should be overwritten. Options include Overwrite, AllowPartialSet, and NoOverwrite (default).

The node's behavior can also be configured using OverwriteErrorBehavior under Exception Behavior. If the Overwrite or AllowPartialSet options are selected, the node will not fail.
  • Overwrite - Data Flow Output parameter value should be overwritten.
  • AllowPartialSet - Data Flow Output parameter values that are not set will be written to. However, if the values are already set, they will not be overwritten, and this will not result in an error.
  • NoOverwrite - Data Flow Output parameter value should not be overwritten. This is the default value.

OverwriteErrorBehavior

Specify the behavior of the node when setting defined outputs. This property works in conjunction with the OverwriteBehavior property to configure the node's behavior. The available options are:

  • Error - The node fails if errors are detected and values are not set. If the OverwriteBehavior options Overwrite or AllowPartialSet is selected then this combination is invalid and the node will fail.
  • Log - Logs a warning message about the output values' results.
  • Ignore - Ignores the output values' results.
The default value depends on the OverwriteBehavior options:
  • Error If OverwriteBehavior is set to NoOverwrite.
  • Log If OverwriteBehavior is set to Overwrite or AllowPartialSet.

Example data flows

A number of sample Data Flows are available from the Samples workspace, found in the Analyze Directory page.

In the Directory under the /Data360 Samples/Node Examples/ folder, you will find "Publishing Outputs", which shows examples of how to use this node.

Note: Upgrades will overwrite all data flows in the workspace. If you want to make changes to one of the sample data flows, we recommend you create a copy and save it elsewhere, using Save as...
