Edit Mapping

Procedures

Edit Mapping Information

1. Go to the mapping you want to edit and click Edit.

2. Edit the name in the pop-up window that appears. The description is optional.

3. To configure the mapping, click Edit Field Mapping.

   

4. Click the plus sign.

   

5. The Edit Mapping Information window opens. Here, you must define the details of the mapping for each source (data in your API call).
   

   

   1. Add source(s) lets you specify one or more data sources to include in your API call, such as email or phone number.

   2. Source Transformation lets you define whether any data should be changed during import. Read more about data transformations here.

   3. Choose Mapping subtype (location). This subtype matches the event type name from the API call. The call won't be processed if there is no mapping for the event type. For example, you must define a mapping with the subtype Email to send an email.

   4. Destination attribute lets you specify where the imported data will be mapped. All the required fields are already defined by default in Mapp Engage for every mapping subtype. All you need to do is add the matching name from your JSON payload (source), and if needed, add additional values. Your custom and member attributes must be defined in Mapp Engage (see Attributes).

      Mapping sources and destinations are case sensitive!
