Configuring Mapping

You can configure input and output mapping for cleanse functions.

The mapping section of cleanseConfig contains information about the common input and output mappings for the cleanse functions. These mappings can be used inside the cleanse infos.

Configuring Input Mapping

Input mapping determines the attributes that are collected from an entity of the cleanse function.

Table 1. Input Mapping
Attribute	Description
`attribute`	Specifies the URI of an attribute in the entity.
`cleanseAttribute`	Specifies the name of the attribute's value inside `CleanseInputs` (the key of the `Map<String, Object>`) If you want to collect nested and sub-attributes together, specify the name of the nested attribute as a prefix in the `cleanseAttribute` parameter, separated by a dot. In the case of `Identifiers.Type` and `Identifiers.ID` (as given in the example above): The key in the `Map<String, Object>` is `Identifiers`. The value is `Map<String, String>`. Where the key is the Type or ID and the value is an appropriate value.
`allValues`	Specifies whether a single (OV) value or all values of the attributes are passed to the cleanse function. If `allValues` is equal to `true`, then the value of the `Map<String, Object>` is of type `List`. This may be omitted. The default value is `false`.
`mandatory`	Specifies whether the value is required for the cleanse function. If the entity has no such value, the entity is not passed to the cleanse function. This may be omitted. The default value is `false`.

Sample Input Mapping Configuration

{
  "URI": "configuration/entityTypes/HCP",
  "cleanseConfig": {
    "mappings": [
      {
        "URI": "configuration/entityTypes/HCP/cleanseConfig/mappings/Identifiers",
        "inputMapping": [
          {
            "attribute": "configuration/entityTypes/HCP/attributes/Identifiers/attributes/Type",
            "cleanseAttribute": "Identifiers.Type",
            "mandatory": true,
            "allValues": true
          },
          {
            "attribute": "configuration/entityTypes/HCP/attributes/Identifiers/attributes/ID",
            "cleanseAttribute": "Identifiers.ID",
            "mandatory": false,
            "allValues": true
          }
        ]
      }
    ],
    ...
  }

Maximum Attributes Combinations

[
  {
    "cleanseFunction": "Loqate",
    "options": {
      ...
      },
      ...
    "maxAttributesCombinations": 100
  }
]

Configuring Output Mapping

Output mapping determines where the cleansed values must be stored. It has the same structure as input mapping, except that the allValues parameter does not effect the output mapping.

CleanseOutputs structure generated by the cleanse function has the getCleansedAttributes method that returns Map<String, List<String>>.

The cleanseAttribute is the key for the Map<String, List<String>>.
The list of values List<String> is applied to the attribute inside the entity.

Note: If any mandatory attribute is omitted in the result, the whole result does not get applied. Also, the cleanse is treated as unsuccessful.
