I have an old application that dynamically change the table name used in the workflow through a text file in an input folder. How do I do the same using the datamapper?

Could you explain what you mean with “change the table name”?
Do you mean you want to dynamically switch the names of the tables extracted by the data mapping configuration? That’s just not possible in Connect since it would break the universal data model.
Or are you simply looking to dynamically select a specific data mapping config, which can be done through conditions in the Workflow?
Hi Phil,
Currently in workflow 7 my client sends a text file containing the ACESS database name and a table name to be used in the application. These parameters are used in the database plug-in, tab dynamic SQL. How can we use this method using datamapper?

Aaahh… now I get it! Unfortunately, you can’t do that (yet!) in the DataMapper. However, you can still use the same technique using the Database Plugin then send its XML output to the DataMapper. it should allow you to replicate your current process.
Great! Thanks for the tip.
