Hi,
As the datastore settings do not allow any variable, how could we provide a solution where a dataflow must extract data from a table located in a datastore whose settings are read from a table?
To be concrete, the customer has a table where each record contains fields with the name of the server, the user, passowrd etc. And this table is growing from day to day.
This table must be read in a loop to perform a dataflow that points to the settings extracted.
Therefore there must be a dataflow in a loop, with a sql transformation as source for example, but the datastore pointed in this sql transformation must come from the table that contains the settings. However, the datastore cannot be a variable in the sql transformation. Then, how could we do?
Could we update on the fly (when executing the dataflow, there would be a script to do that in the loop) the repository by changing the settings of the datastore object?
I am also aware of the XML creation toolkit but if I'm not wrong this is not really an automatic action, this requires manual action, and since there are new datastores everyday it is not really a right solution here, is it?
Kind regards,
Anthony
