Source Object Schema Modifications

You can modify Data 360 source object schema on the Data Stream details page. All changes are applied to future data imports. To apply logic retroactively, pull from the source and ingest into Data 360.

These actions are supported for each connector.

Important
Important When editing a source object schema in Data 360, consider these behaviors.
  • If a source object doesn’t have a header, only Add and Update actions are supported. To maintain proper ordering based on column index, add new fields to the end of the file.
  • Marketing Cloud Engagement data extensions don’t support the Remove Field action. Removing fields from the data extension in Engagement causes data to be inaccurate.
  • After the Engagement data extension is configured in Data 360, don’t change the schema. Data 360 doesn’t support schema changes.

For more information on disabling data stream fields, refer Disable a Data Stream Field.
