Property Type

Select the way the connection details
will be set.

• Built-In: The connection details will be set
  locally for this component. You need to specify the values for all
  related connection properties manually.

• Repository: The connection details stored
  centrally in Repository > Metadata will be reused by this component. You need to click
  the […] button next to it and in the pop-up
  Repository Content dialog box, select the
  connection details to be reused, and all related connection
  properties will be automatically filled in.

Schema and Edit schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields
(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark
Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the
fields.

Click Edit
schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:

• View schema: choose this
  option to view the schema only.

• Change to built-in property:
  choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

• Update repository connection:
  choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether
  to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to
  propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata
  again in the Repository Content
  window.

Click Sync
columns to retrieve the schema from the previous component connected in the
Job.

This
component offers the advantage of the dynamic schema feature. This allows you to
retrieve unknown columns from source files or to copy batches of columns from a source
without mapping each column individually. For further information about dynamic schemas,
see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

This
dynamic schema feature is designed for the purpose of retrieving unknown columns of a
table and is recommended to be used for this purpose only; it is not recommended for the
use of creating tables.

drop-down list.

• INSERT: insert one or more

• UPDATE: update one or more
  existing records in Salesforce.

• UPSERT: create new records
  or update existing records. In the Upsert Key
  Column field displayed, specify the key column for the upsert
  operation. By selecting Output upsert column, a column named
  UpsertColumnValue will be added to the output schema. The
  column holds upsert key values and thus can be used to monitor the upsert key. You
  can select Output upsert column if the upsert key is a
  variable.

• DELETE: delete one or more
  records in Salesforce.
