Workflow Tutorials

All Ataccama builds come with a tutorial project with workflows that help you understand and learn workflow tasks and their applications.

Create the workflow tutorials project

To create the workflow tutorials project:

Launch ONE Desktop.
Switch to the File Explorer view.
Right-click DQ Projects and select New > Project.
In Tutorial projects, select Workflow Tutorials.
Select Finish.
Start going through the tutorials from the File Explorer.

Description

Introduction

A Hello World workflow, which shows how to execute a simple Windows command task with an input variable.

Database Operations

Demonstrates (1) the use of several SQL tasks for performing CREATE, INSERT, and DROP statements; (2) reporting success and failure to the standard output; (3) reading values from a database table (via the SELECT statement) and using them for conditional workflow processing.

Run Plans

Demonstrates a few use cases for running ONE plans via the Run DQC task: building lookups, sequential processing, parallel processing, and using the Iterate task to run all plans in a specified directory that match a particular mask.

Wait For

Demonstrates (1) how to use the Wait For File task to initiate other workflow tasks after the specified file appears; (2) performing files operations like moving and compressing, (3) passing a value to a parameter in a ONE plan.

Server

Demonstrates a workflow designed to rebuild lookups before running a cleansing plan in case a specified flag appears in a database table.

Resource Management

Demonstrates how to limit resource consumption of several plans executed simultaneously.

Scheduler

Demonstrates two examples: (1) scheduling the execution of a Windows command, (2) scheduling the execution of a workflow.

Variables and Parameters

Demonstrates how to (1) define and use derived, task, and system variables in the expression, semi-expression, SQL and non-expression context; (2) use local variables, local path variables, and workflow functions; (3) recast a variable data type; (4) pass parameters to a child workflow using the three implementations of the Iterate task.
