The “JSONata Jobs” feature allows you to process files directly within the engine, without relying on intermediate steps. When creating a new JSONata Job, you must provide a JSON file, which will serve as the basis for transformations.
This approach is ideal for handling large volumes of text files or complex JSON structures, as the processing occurs internally and efficiently—ensuring performance and stability even with extensive content.
To add a new “JSONata Jobs”, follow these steps:
In the left-hand menu, click "JSONata Jobs".
Then, click "Add JSONata Job".
The edit screen for the new JSONata Job will open automatically. Create and configure your Job..
Click “Execute current Job” to execute the action..
The top-right menu provides the following actions:
Create new Job: Automatically creates a new Job, which will open in a new tab.
Execute current File Job: Runs the active Job in the current tab, processing the defined queries.
Execute current Job in new tab: Opens a new tab to run the same Job.
Job Process List: Displays all running processes.
Job Configuration: Allows you to configure parameters for the current Job. Settings are organized into two tabs:
General: Define the Job name and select the JSON file, directory, or file set. You can also specify the target directory where the result of the file manipulation will be saved.
Groups: Manage access permissions by adding or removing groups as needed.
Finally, click "Apply to save the settings.
Save Job: Saves the current state of the Job.
After selecting or running a Job in the Data Warehouse, the Returned Data Panel section displays three distinct tabs with information related to data execution and structure:
In this tab, you can view the files available in the selected directory or file filter. It's the starting point to understand which data is being used as input.
