InternalId References

For internal tracking purposes, a GUID is generated within the Gateway's processing logic whenever an object is extracted. This may be re-used if necessary, for example, if you are unable to use any attribute or combination of attributes as a unique ObjectID.

You can use a special place holder value to insert the internally generated GUID into a value. This place holder is specified as [InternalId].

<Object>

<ObjectID value="[InternalId]">

</ObjectID>

</Object>

The Mapping entry in the above example generates an ObjectID from the internally generated GUID.

Note: Using InternalId is not recommended because the value is entirely independent of the input data and the value of an InternalId is not repeated. Hence re-processing the same input data results in different values of InternalId per extracted object.
