Filter Unique records using for each group in Oracle Integration
In certain cases, duplicate records may be received from the source application, necessitating the filtration of unique records before forwarding the data to the target application.
This often involves grouping the data based on a specific column or element in order to identify and retain only the distinct records.
For instance, consider a scenario where a list of countries is being received from the source application, and it may contain duplicate entries, as demonstrated in the following example:
{
"Country": [{
"country": "IN",
"name": "India"
},{
"country": "IN",
"name": "India"
},{
"country": "US",
"name": "United States"
}]
}
Prior to transmitting this data, it’s essential to extract only the unique countries based on their names and subsequently forward these unique countries to the target application.
In Oracle Integration-3 version 23.10, a new feature has been introduced, known as the ‘for-each-group‘ element in the mapper. This element enables you to group the database records based on specific columns or elements.
