Extract Fields from the Account Object Example

In this example, a Data Mapper extracts an account ID parameter and returns the account name so that an Omniscript can use the extracted account data.

Interface Type Extract  
Input Type JSON If using with another Omnistudio component such as an Omniscript, set the input as JSON.
Output Type JSON  

Extract Settings

Map the extracted object with the path in the JSON, and create a filter for the ID.

Field Value notes
Extraction Object Account  
Extract Object Path Account  
Filter Id = InputID  

Mapping Settings

Map the input data to a JSON node so that an Omniscript (or other component) can access the data. To define a data transformation, you can add key-value pairs. This addition replaces the defined key with the value in the output.

Extract JSON Path JSON Output Path notes
Account:Name Account:Name Choose a data type for the data type, such as string. If needed, you can set a default value.

Extract Preview

In Preview, add InputId as the key and a valid Salesforce Account object ID as the value, such as 0016100001OBpRi.

After you execute the sample Data Mapper in Preview, the desired output is shown, such as this example.

{
      "Account": 
      {
         "Name":"Smith Incorporated"
      }
}
