An embedded flow groups stages together into a single
stage, allowing you to simplify the layout of complex flows and set processing
options using field values.
-
In your flow, add the stages that you want to convert to an embedded
flow.
-
Select the stages you want to convert to an embedded flow by clicking and
dragging a box around the stages.
For example, this would select the Sorter and Transformer stages to convert
to an embedded flow.
Note: Report stages cannot be included in an embedded flow.
-
Right-click one of the selected stages and select Group into
Embedded Dataflow
-
Enter a name for the embedded flow. The name will be used as the label for the
embedded flow stage on the canvas.
-
Click OK.
The stages you selected are now grouped into an embedded flow. This example shows an
embedded flow named SortTansform.
