In a data container, you can create as many new data records as needed for one or
more entities.
Before you begin
You have already connected to the MDM server from
Talend Studio. A data container exists and is
defined with at least one entity.
About this task
To create a new data record from a data container, do the following:
Procedure
-
In the MDM Repository tree view, expand the
Data Container node.
-
Double-click the data container in which you want to create a new data
record.
-
A dialog box opens, asking you to select an appropriate MDM server.
Once you have made your choice, click OK to close the
dialog box.
-
Right-click the lower part of the data container browser, and then click
New Record.
-
An XML Editor/Viewer dialog box opens, allowing you to
add a new data record with an XML editor.
After the editing is done, you can click the Tree tab
to check the data record in a tree view.
-
If needed, select the Fire a change event (update report) and
triggers check box so that the newly created record will be
written into the UpdateReport and eligible Triggers will
be executed directly.
After selecting the Fire a change event (update report) and
triggers check box, if required, select the
Enable verification by before processes check box
to enable the verification of the newly created record by the
Before Saving processes. For more information

Note: The insert operation will fail, without any indication, if the
Enable verification by before processes check box
is selected and the validation of the data record is not successful.

list.
-
Click Save to validate your changes.
