This section describes how to create or modify a connection to a delimited text file so that could work with data in that file.
To create a connection to a delimited text file, you need to use in conjunction with a special connector called Delimited Text File Connector. This connector is included in the package.
The Delimited Text File Connector supports the following features:
Table 38: Delimited Text File Connector – Supported features
|
Bidirectional synchronization
Specifies whether you can both read and write data in the connected data system. |
No |
|
Delta processing mode
Specifies whether the connection can process only the data that has changed in the connected data system since the last synchronization operation. This reduces the overall synchronization duration. |
Yes |
|
Password synchronization
Specifies whether you can synchronize user passwords from an Active Directory (AD) domain to the connected data system. |
No |

-
Add: Moves the selected attributes from the Available attributes list to the UniqueID attributes list.
-
Remove: Moves the selected attributes from the UniqueID attributes list to the Available attributes list.
-
Constructed UniqueID: Displays a combination of the attributes whose values will make up a unique identifier for each object in the external data system.
