Full name cleanser

The full name cleanser generates full names as defined and adds an attribute to the ReltioCleanser crosswalk.

Cleanser Name - FullNameBuilder

Description - This cleanser generates full names as defined and adds an attribute to the ReltioCleanser crosswalk, as per the output mapping.

Note: Consider the following points when you use the full name cleanser.
  • Except for the Name attribute, you can define your own names for all these attributes.
    • FirstName
    • MiddleName
    • LastName
    • Initial
  • By default, FirstName and LastName are marked as mandatory. However, you can choose the mandatory attributes as per your requirement.
Table 1. Options
Key Allowed Subattribute Name
isForce Boolean (true/false)
  • True - always generates a value for the Name attribute, whether or not the data for the desired output is supplied in the request.
  • False - generates value if the Name attribute isn’t available or is blank.
  • The default value is False.
pattern This is the only pattern to generate the full name.
  • Full name is generated as per this pattern only.
  • The default pattern is {FirstName} {MiddleName} {LastName}.

Limitation - When you’ve defined a cleanse input name something other than Name, isForce is set to true. For the cleanse function to work correctly, the cleanse output name must always be Name.

L3 Configuration - Map the FullNameBuilder for any entity in your L3 configuration. Here’s an example of a sample configuration:
