Dynamic amount of field

Hi,
the file i am reading has few versions.
each version has different amount of fields, as reasult i cant use the same metadata (actually the not using the same graph).
is there a way to have dynamic metada or import that will skip missing fields.
i will add the difference is only in the last fields, there is a basic common amount of fileds and order.

Hi,

this is unfortunately currently not possible - you will need to create separate metadata for each version of the file.

thank you for the replay.
how will the graph will know which metadata to use?
for example i have 3 version of the file ( 10,12 and 14 fields):
should i make 3 data readers with seperate data reader, while 2 readers will always give error, one will always be ok.

One solution to your problem is to use parameters and drive which data file and which metadata will be used. You can create a template/skeleton transformation graph and by defining parameter value modify it to read particular data/format.

See the attached CloverDesigner project - look at “WHICH_DATA” parameter and how is it used to define “fileURL” for the reader and which metadata definition will be linked in.

Parameters are also described in Clover User Doc.
