dynamically pass built-in session variables to workflow variables

0 votes
872 views

I want to maintain audit information of each and every mapping in table which contains

workflow_name | start_time | end_time | source_success_rows | target_success_rows | error_record_count

i am able to do it using workflow variables assigning them with built-in session variables and then using the property of prevariableAssignment in session assigning the workflowflow variables to mapping variables of audit_session

It is working fine , But the issue is if i want to maintain audit for other mapping i have to create the whole process again . So is there any possibility of automating the process so that it does not require recreation of the whole thing again.

You might want to build a process reading from the informatica repository, wherein the exact same information is available, although spread across different tables.

you'd be able to make a single mapping/quer, extract that piece of information, and feed to your table

I have two sessions I a workflow like below

workflow1->session1->session2

I have a join_date column in a table in Mapping1 , in session1. I want to pick this join_date value and pass to mpping2/session2

If join date value changes in the table in session1 then the same value should pick and pass to session2. I will use this date value in a query in session2 .

Please suggest how to achieve this?

I have a scenario where my source file name will be coming from one db table I have to read that value and pass it in the value of Source File Name in Session properties.

Till now I have tried like I have created 2 sessions where the 1st session will read the db table where the source file name is stored and store it in one mapping variable and in post success variable assignment I am assigning the mapping variable value to workflow variable and in the next main session I am trying to give the workflow variable in the session file name attribute .

But it is showing error like below

fail to expand variables in file field [$$WL_File].

How can I achieve this.

Please suggest some ideas.

How do you include you mapping output variables in the workflow without having to use a human task?

Basically I have one row of data that I want to push out and to be included in e.g. the body of the Notification task or as an attachment.

We are not using power center, only the developer tool.

how can i dynamically give the flat file name in Source file name property of session.

As an SQA, I need to verify that all connections associated with a set of workflows have been updated. How can I view all connections associated with a workflow? Is there a connection, or connections, assigned to individual workflows, or would I need to find the connections for each individual session? If so, how do I view the connection(s) of a session?
