Talend jobs and mappings export in XML, JSON, or semistructured format

[BA621858188]

Hi Team,

Is there any way we can export Talend job details and mappings, which are used in Talend jobs, in.xml,.json, or any semi-structured format?

Please help.

Hi @Vrushabh Malbari​ 

Perhaps Talend Metadata Bridge is what you're looking for. However, this feature is present only in the commercial editions.

If you're using the free version, maybe you can achieve what you want by reading Job's source file. It's a .item file stored on your workspace, but reading it to get the mappings can be very complex.

@Anselmo Peixoto​ ,

Thank you for reply.

I am using the enterprise version of Talend Studio. Can you please share the steps in detail to get the mappings?

@Anselmo Peixoto​ ,

Thanks, Is there any practical example for this? Please let me know

I believe the following link provides an example, you would just need to select the Bridge according to your destination.

@Vrushabh Malbari​ , are you looking for the Job documentation? Right click on the job in repository and select 'generate Doc as HTML' option to export the job documentation in HTML format.

@Shicong Hong​ ,

Thank you for your reply. I already tried this, and this is not what I am looking for. I wanted to have export mappings used in jobs in .json or.xml (or any semi-structured format).
