JavaPack is probably the easiest way, assuming you have a resource that can code a java class to "get" whatever it is that you want at that URL via http protocol......

It's likely that your service operation, on the output, is supporting the "Generate Array" check box. The current Web Services pack is unable to support "array" output directly. We can point you to the solution on how to do this, but it's also important to understand your goal......

Actually, I wouldn't necessarily expect "both", unless you also "derive" something in the downstream value for this column from the fields in the lookup table. ...but to finish this discussion, do you have any final downstream columns that use both a primary stream and reference ...

Right.. for that column, I would expect it to show "both"....the sources on the primary link, and the (ultimate) sources on the reference link. Question --- what does "Stage" level lineage show? (ie...open the job in WB and then click on a stage that is downstream of the lookup. ...

Hi Doug... Sounds like you may have another interesting esoteric scenario, but first can you add some additional details?... If you are sitting on a downstream "Stage" and perform lineage (where does this come from), does it only show the lookup source as the ultimate final asset? And if y...

First, disable the Operation...(deployment workspace....use the edit button at the bottom...then highlight the Operation and use the enable/disable button that appears)..... Then look at the dslog.....why did it abort? Could be many reasons. The reason it re-starts is because minimum instances is 1 ...

No....fully available in Server 8.5 also! If you are not able to prepare for 8.5, the answer is above in the thread...you will need to break up the document externally (I've heard of creative solutions using Java and I know our own lab services offers the opportunity for such) and tools like XMLMax ...

WISD (now ISD) is much more than just for controlling Jobs.....it most certainly can be used for processing XML "in stream" in real-time....kind of like you might do with MQ as a source and a target. What makes ISD unique is that it does all the "plumbing" work for you when you a...
