## What Is a Value Map?

A value map is a lookup table that maps a source value to a target value. Instead of rebuilding the same translation logic in formulas or decision branches, define the mapping one time and reuse it in multiple integration flows.

For example, you can map one system's priority values to another system's priority labels, such as `P1` to `High`.

## How Value Maps Work

- Each entry contains a source value and a mapped target value.
- Source values must be unique.
- Target values can repeat across multiple source values.
- Lookups run in forward direction only: source value to target value.

## Set Behavior for Unmapped Values

If a source value isn’t found in the value map, select a default behavior.

- **Fail the flow:** Stop execution and return an error.
- **Pass through as an unmapped value:** Use the source value as the output.
- **Define a default value:** Return a specific default target value.

## Manage Value Maps as Global Resources

Manage value maps from **Global Flow Resources**, where you can create, view, and open value maps. On each value map record, you can update mapping entries, review flows that reference the map, and delete the map when no dependencies exist.
