Regarding Context parameters in Talend

[BA621858188]

Hi Team,

I am new to Talend. We are using Talend Enterprise version in our project. I wanted to know the process of maintaining Context parameters/Variables in both

1) in File

2) in DB Table

Can you refer me to any documentation or any project links that will be helpful for me?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Xiaodi Shi​ 

Thank you for help.

I need documentation regarding the process of maintain the context parameters at the DB level and used in the Talend job or maintaining context parameters structures in file and used in the job.

Thanks

Context variables are the variables which can have different values in different environments. You can create a context group which can hold multiple context variables. You need not add each context variable one by one to a job, you can simply add the context group to the job. Kohl's Feedback Survey

@Barbara McDowell​ 

we can create context variable in file with key and value and load into the job. I am looking for that process.

@Xiaodi Shi​ ,

Yes. I am looking for the same. Also I am looking for context variable maintain at DB level i.e. in table.

Select * from table where jobname =''

-- will have key, value, jobname cols

and how these context variable will load and use in our Talend job.
