Schema Mapping Overview
Schema Mapping allows you to choose what data to sync and how it will appear in your destination.
✨ What is Schema Mapping?
When you connect a source (like Salesforce) and destination (like BigQuery), the platform detects all available objects and fields. You decide:
- Which objects to include (e.g., Accounts, Contacts).
- Which fields to enable or exclude.
- Whether to transform data during sync.
✨ Selecting Objects
In the Map Schema step:
- Use the search bar to find objects.
- Check the boxes to select.
- Each object creates a table in the destination.
✨ Mapping Fields
For each object:
- Field Name: API name in source.
- Data Type: e.g., String, Number, Date.
- Include: Toggle on/off.
- Transformation: Apply formatting or renaming.
Tip: Use Preview Data to see sample records.
✨ Best Practices
- Review data types to avoid mismatches.
- Exclude unused fields to improve performance.
- Document transformations for clarity.
