Tags are dynamic placeholders you place inside a Transfer configuration. When the Transfer runs, each Tag is automatically swapped out for the real value - such as a company name, a connection, or a link storage path. This means you build your Transfers once and reuse them across as many companies as you need, simply by changing the Tag Values.
Benefits:
- Build once, run for many companies - no duplicate Transfers to maintain
- Onboard a new company by adding their Tag Values, not by rebuilding Transfers;
- Make a change in one place and it applies everywhere.
Where you can use Tags:
- Description : label each run with the company name so logs and history stay clear and traceable;
- Source : point to a different source connection depending on which company is running;
- Destination : send data to the right target connection for each company;
- Link Storage : automatically updates the Link Storage that belongs to the company the Transfer is currently running for;
- Formulas : use Tags inside formulas to either retrieve default values already defined for a specific company, or write specific values into the destination based on what the Tag resolves to at runtime;
- Filter : filter the data being transferred to only what is relevant for that company, for example pulling only records that belong to the company currently running;
- Schedules : when creating a Schedule, select the company and Tag Group; the system handles the rest automatically at runtime.
