Hi,

Please help in below scenario to have below datatypes through Talend. Is it possible?

Logic# 1:

If spec value contains [one] value and is [Yes, Y, True,…],

Create [Boolean] and check off [Yes] on Output

If spec value contains [one] value and is [No, N, false,…]

Create [Boolean] and check off [No] on Output

Logic # 2:

If spec value contains [two] value

Create [Simple Select] and list two values on

Output

Logic # 3:

If spec value contains [three or more] value

Create [Multi Select] and list values on

Output

Logic # 4:

If spec value contains [one] value and is [numeric],

Create [Number] on

Logic# 5: catch all logic

If spec value does not fall under above logic,

Create [Text] on

Hi

What is your target application? It sounds like a UI development question rather than ETL question.

Thanks for your reply.

 

Target is RESTAPI. Through RESTAPI I have to send data to external systems which is you are right - a UI.

SaaS version where we have been provided with RESTAPIs to push data in the desired format but I am confused if these datatypes are gettable in Talend or not.

Could you please help!
