A Mapper represents mapping logic to map data between any two schemas. To generate a mapper:

1

Create a pipeline

Call Create Pipeline with the following parameters:

  1. Target schema
  2. Pipeline name
2

Create a job for the pipeline

Call Create Job with the the created pipeline’s pipeline_id, and provide sample source data that you want to map.

3

Run the job

Call Run Job to begin generating the mapper. Use the created job’s job_id.

Wait until the job finishes. This can take a one to several minutes, correlated to the complexity of the schemas.

4

Done! Your mapper has been generated.

Once done, the run job call will return a Results payload, which provides all necessary ids for future actions and the status of the mapper generation. Continue through the Getting Started guide to learn how to see the mappings, edit, and save the mapper for later use.
