Use data transformation templates

You need the feature set ETL - Superuser Role to use the templates. Your workspace administrator can enable it for you.

We provide templates that speed up the creation of data pipelines. The templates are based on processes in specific source systems, like the Incident-to-Resolution process in ServiceNow.

The templates include the following:

  • a common business process with activities and business objects

  • a definition which data to extract

  • scripts to transform the extracted data

Use cases

You can use a process-specific template as a starting point and customize it.

Blank templates are empty. Use a blank template if no template is available for your business process.
