Extract From

Data Action Grooper.Core

Sets a field value by running an extractor on another field.

Remarks

The ExtractFrom action enables you to populate a target field by applying a configured extractor to the value of a source field.


Usage

  • Add an ExtractFrom action to a Data Rule to automate field value calculation or normalization.
  • Configure the 'Source Field', , and properties to define the extraction logic.
  • Use 'PreventOverwrite' and to control when the action executes and how it handles missing results.

Example

Suppose you have a "Full Name" field and want to extract the "Last Name" into a separate field:

  • Set SourceField to "Full Name".
  • Set TargetField to "Last Name".
  • Configure Extractor to parse the last name from the full name value.

Related Concepts

  • Data Field: Represents a field in the data model.
  • Value Extractor: Defines the extraction logic to apply.
  • Data Rule: Hosts and executes data actions such as ExtractFrom.

For more information, see the documentation for Data Rule, Data Field, Value Extractor, and related data extraction objects.
