Dictionary rename to

This section is available only in English

Example 1 of block usage

Example of "Rename to" block

Example of “Rename to” block

Rename block is used for example for:

  • renaming of input data keys in JSON format, when keys are created in source message,
  • dictionary created from regular terms, where key names are created dynamically.

In both cases may be needed to adjust input keys to standard names.

In the example the block is used to rename key “ip” to a key “ip_address” in dictionary “item”.

Example 2 of block usage

Example of "Rename to" block with "If" block

Example of “Rename to” block with “If” block

To avoid warnings use this block only in case when you are sure source key exists.

In this case it is solved by containing block int If statement. However in real case there would be better solutions to this.
