Snap settings
- Expression icon (
): Allows using
JavaScript syntax to access SnapLogic Expressions to set field values dynamically (if
enabled). If disabled, you can provide a static value. Learn more. - SnapGPT (
): Generates SnapLogic Expressions
based on natural language using SnapGPT. Learn
more. - Suggestion icon (
): Populates a
list of values dynamically based on your Snap configuration. You can select only one
attribute at a time using the icon. Type into the field if it supports a comma-separated
list of values. - Upload
: Uploads files. Learn more.
| Field/Field set | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Label | String | Required. Specify a unique name for the Snap. Modify this to be more appropriate, especially if there are more than one of the same Snap in the pipeline. |
| Workspace | String/Expression/ Suggestion |
Required. Specify the workspace that contains the target
model. Note: Workspace ID and Workspace Name can be used
interchangeably.
Default value: N/A Example: slogic |
| Model | String/Expression/ Suggestion |
Required. Specify the model on which you want the Snap to
operate. Note: Model ID and Model Name can be used
interchangeably.
Default value: N/A Example: snap test |
| Export ID | String/Expression/ Suggestion |
Required. Specify the export ID available in a model. Default value: N/A Example: Sample.csv File |
| Retry limit | Integer/Expression |
Required. Specify the maximum number of connection retry attempts to make in case of a connection failure. If the retry attempts exceed the configured value, the pipeline execution fails and an error message appears. Default value: 3 Example: 8 |
| Retry interval (seconds) | Integer/Expression |
Required. Specify the minimum retry time interval in seconds. Enter the time interval for the Snap to retry a connection request after a failed connection. The time increases exponentially between failures. For example, if the timeout is set to 3 seconds, the first timeout is at 3, the second is at 4.5 etc. Default value: 3 Example: 6 |
| HTTP timeout (seconds) | Integer/Expression |
Required. Specify the connection timeout value in seconds. In case of a connection failure, the Snap aborts the pipeline execution. For example, if the HTTP timeout is set to 30 seconds, and the Snap fails to establish a connection until 30 seconds, the pipeline logs a timeout exception and aborts execution. Default value: 60 Example: 30 |
| Snap execution | Dropdown list |
Choose one of the three modes in
which the Snap executes. Available options are:
Default value: Validate & Execute Example: Execute only |
