RE: How do I make an ATTRIBUTE column a UUID?
SPLICE MACHINE SOURCE: In my data flow I want to make an attribute column a UUID (For example: 87c312f0-4a49-45d9-aa65-bb6921cb1833). How can I accomplish this?
Hi Kaley
In MSSQL[ sql server] we have a function newid() which will generate unique values .
1.Create a dataflow and drag the MSSQL source instance into the dataflow
2. Then add a derived attribute in the source instance and include the function as shown below make sure we place it in the diyotta custom function to overcome the validation issues as shown below.
3. Then map the source instance derived attribute to the target instance column it will populate with the unique values as shown below.
Hi Naveen,
Thank you, however, I am using Splice Machine as my SOURCE. It doesn’t appear to be working with the method you mentioned above. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kaley
