Export Selected Transformations The button to export transformation details for the selected data sources. When you click this button, you download a ZIP file. The ZIP file contains an errors.csv file that includes the transformation details for the selected data sources. If you do not select any data sources, the transformation details for all listed data sources in the transformations table are exported.
Show lineage The button to go back to the graph.

Sort by each column The sorting icons that you can use to sort by each column in ascending or descending order. These columns include Scanner type, Success rate, Done, Parsing Error, Analyze Error, and Last sync time.

Analysis results

You can click > next to the ID of a row in the Transformations table to open the source code or transformation details. You can use these transformation details to easily find errors.

If the metadata that collects from your data source includes SQL queries, the analysis results might display comments from those SQL queries.

If a comment ends with a statement separator, for example, /*select 2 from dual*/;, the comment is counted as a statement. Consequently, the number of queries that are displayed in the Done column under Summary per data source might be greater than the actual number of queries parsed.

Analyze issues and possible solutions

If the analysis results contain errors, the Status code column shows ANALYZE_ERROR and the Name column displays the name of the error. You can find the transformation details by clicking the row.

The following list shows some common issues and errors, along with possible solutions:

(IICS) : Missing parameter files

This error occurs when cannot find the parameter files that are listed in the error message. To resolve this issue:

  1. Ensure you have the parameter files.
  2. Take one of the following actions: 
    • If you use via , upload the parameter files to the Parameter Files field when you add the for (IICS) capability.
    • If you use the , specify the paramFiles property in the configuration file to point to the directory in which your parameter files are stored.

IICS: No taskflows found in zip root file

This error occurs when the taskflow type was specified in the objects to be retrieved, but could not find any taskflows while creating for IICS. To resolve this issue, take any of the following actions:

Note that the only meaningful types to retrieve are: Taskflow, Workflow, Project and Folder.

IICS: Taskflow taskflow_name without any tasks

This error occurs when the indicated taskflow does not contain any tasks. No lineage is created for the taskflow. No action is required.

For more information about the supported taskflows and unsupported tasks, go to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services.

IICS: Unsupported tasks in taskflow taskflow_name

This error occurs when the indicated taskflow contains unsupported tasks. No lineage is created for the supported task types. No action is required.

For more information about the supported taskflows and unsupported tasks, go to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services.

: CONFIGURATION

This error occurs in the following scenarios:

The unspecified properties are marked as UNDEFINED in the transformation details. To resolve this issue, specify the properties.

: UNRESOLVED PARAMETERS

This error occurs when parameters are missing from the parameter files in the external folder. To resolve this issue:

: CONFIGURATION

This error occurs in any of the following scenarios:

  • If you use via to create , the definitions for certain connections were not specified in the Source Configuration field in the Technical Lineage for capability.
  • If you use the to create , the definitions for certain connections were not specified in the source ID file.

The connections lacking definitions are listed when you expand the CONFIGURATION analyze error. To resolve this issue, take any of the following actions:

  • If you use via to create ,
    1. Copy the connection definitions that are marked as UNDEFINED in the error.
    2. Add the copied connection definitions to the Source Configuration field in the Technical Lineage for capability.
    3. Replace UNDEFINED with the correct values:
      • Ensure that the values for collibraSystemName, schema, and dbname match the system, schema, and database names in .
      • Select the value for dialect from the dialect list that supports.
      For more information about specifying the values, go to the description of the Source Configuration field in the Add a technical lineage capability to your  step.
  • If you use the to create ,
    1. Copy the connection definitions that are marked as UNDEFINED in the error.
    2. Add the copied connection definitions to the connection_definitions.conf file .
    3. Replace UNDEFINED with the correct values:
      • Ensure that the values for collibraSystemName, schema, and dbname match the system, schema, and database names in .
      • Select the value for dialect from the dialect list that supports.
      For more information about specifying the values, go to the Configure the connection definitions step in Prepare an external directory folder for the lineage harvester.
