Properties

ChangingAttributePath

Gets the changing attribute output path for this transformation

Columns

This is a collection of column mapping definitions that determine how each of the specified columns will be handled with respect to value changes.

Connection

This value specifies a direct reference to the OLE DB connection where the query will be executed.

CurrentRowWhere

This WHERE clause specifies only the current row when several rows have the same business key.

CurrentRowWhereDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the CurrentRowWhere property

DefaultCodePage

This value specifies which default code page to use when the data source does not specify a default code page.

DefaultCodePageDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the DefaultCodePage property

EnableInferredMember

This value determines whether the Slowly Changing Dimension transformation will check for inferred member records that require updating.

EnableInferredMemberDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the EnableInferredMember property

FailOnFixedAttributeChange

This value indicates whether the transformation fails when changes occur in row columns with Fixed attributes. The default value is False.

FailOnFixedAttributeChangeDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the FailOnFixedAttributeChange property

FailOnLookupFailure

The value determines whether the transformation fails if no match for an incoming row is found in the lookup table. The default value is False.

FailOnLookupFailureDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the FailOnLookupFailure property

FixedAttributePath

Gets the fixed attribute output path for this transformation

FriendlyTypeNameStatic

Gets the friendly name of the type of this node

HistoricalAttributePath

Gets the historical attribute output path for this transformation

IncomingRowChangeType

This value determines whether incoming rows are handled as new rows, or whether the type of change is detected for each column and the incoming rows directed to output based on types of changes they contain.

IncomingRowChangeTypeDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the IncomingRowChangeType property

InferredMemberIndicator

This value specifies the name of the column which is used to store inferred member records.

InferredMemberIndicatorDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the InferredMemberIndicator property

InferredMemberPath

Gets the inferred member output path for this transformation

NewPath

Gets the new output path for this transformation. This is the preferred output path and will automatically connect to any single-input transformation nodes that directly follow it in the Biml file.

Query

This value specifies the text or location of the query that will be executed.

UnchangedPath

Gets the unchanged output path for this transformation

UpdateChangingAttributeHistory

This value specifies whether or not historical attribute changes sent to the output path for changing attribute updates.

UpdateChangingAttributeHistoryDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the UpdateChangingAttributeHistory property

InputPath

This specifies the input path that will be used by this dataflow component. If an input path is not specified, the dataflow component will attempt to automatically discover an appropriate input path based on the surrounding dataflow.

VisibleVariables

Gets a collection of all variable nodes that are available to be used by this transformation. It includes variables defined by this transformation and any tasks/packages that contain this transformation

PreferredOutputPath

Gets the preferred output path for the transformation. This output path will support automatic connections to single-input transformations that directly follow in the Biml code

DataflowInputs

Gets a collection of all dataflow input paths for this transformation

DataflowOutputs

Gets a collection of all dataflow output paths for this transformation

ValidateExternalMetadata

This value specifies whether the data flow transformation is validated against columns that originated in external data sources. When server assets such as tables and stored procedures are created during processing, ValidateExternalMetadata is normally set to False, which prevents validation from completing at compile time.

LocaleId

This value specifies which locale is used by the dataflow task.

ErrorHandling

This value specifies how errors are handled by default in columns processed by the component. This can be overriden at the component or column level for specific cases.

DataflowOverrides

Provides a collection of objects to override properties of the component, its input paths, its output paths, and its consituent dataflow columns.

ValidateExternalMetadataDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the ValidateExternalMetadata property

LocaleIdDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the LocaleId property

ScopedName

Gets the scoped name which can be used to uniquely identify this object among other objects of its type

SymbolTable

Gets a reference to the symbol table that stores a reference to this and all other named objects in the project

SsisSafeScopedName

Returns a version of the ScopedName that has been cleaned of invalid characters for SSIS.

SsisSafeName

Returns a version of the Name that has been cleaned of invalid characters for SSIS.

Name

Specifies the name of the object. This name can be used to reference this object from anywhere else in the program.

References

Gets collection of FrameworkItemReference objects, which track rich information about the properties that hold references to this node.

NameDefaultValue

Gets the default value for the Name property

Guid
Annotations

This is a collection of annotation items that can be used to specify documentation, tags, or other information. Annotations are particularly useful for storing information about nodes that can be used by BimlScript code.

ObjectTag

This property provides a general purpose storage mechanism for .NET objects to be associated with AstNode objects. It supplements the annotation system, which is intended for use with string-based metadata.

BimlFile

This value specifies the BimlFile in which the Biml code that defines AstNode resides.

ItemLabel

Gets a label that can be used to identify this node

ParentItem

This value specifies the parent of the current node. All nodes must have a valid parent in the Biml framework, except for the root node.
