  • configName* - Defines the name of the configuration file that contains the REST URL and port for connecting to a G-MapServer.
  • namespace - Defines the namespace within a G-MapServer to store key/value data.
  • batchSize* - Defines the number of key/value pairs to send to a G-MapServer in one batch. The default is 1 key/value pair.
  • resetAction* - Defines if, when, and how a G-MapServer resets its' internal cache. The options are the following:

Example


Receiver Attributes Property Keys

The Receiver defines two property keys that can be modified on any of its associated Domain Attributes:

  • columnName - Defines the actual column name (e.g., first_name, last_name)
  • map - Tells the GMapPutReceiver to send the key/value generated data for that Attribute to the G-Map Server.
    • The default value is 'false' for each Attribute. 
    • It must be set to 'True' for each Attribute that requires the key/value generated data to be sent.
