Render Data

Activity

The Render Data activity takes an instance of a data schema and renders it as a text string. The schema processed is based on a specified Data Format shared configuration.

You may want to use this activity in a number of situations. For example, you may retrieve a result set from a database table. You may then want to format this result set as a formatted text string (with line breaks between each row in the result set), and then write that text string out to a file. You would use the Render Data activity to render the data schema as a formatted text string. Then you would use the Write File activity to write the string to a file.
