A Data Connection is used when mapping the flow of your data in your Data Diagram. A connection is noted by a line between two Data Connectors. A data connection represents the flow of data from one Diagram Object to another.
Figure 1: Data Connections show as lines connecting input and output data connectors.
In Figure 1, there are four present Data Connections. Each is highlighted below as an example.
• | A data connection maps data from the blue output data set connector to the blue input data set connector in the Filter function. |
• | A data connection maps data from the blue output data connector in the filter function to the XML data source repeating sequence. |
• | A data connection maps the LastName field output data connection to the input string data connector in the IsNotEmpty function. |
• | A data connection maps the result output data connector in the IsNotEmpty function to the input filter-rule data connector in the Filter function. |
