Attribute Map

An Attribute Map is a series of Attribute transformations. These can be simple maps, where values are copied from one Entry to another. For example, in the case of an Input Map, then values are copied from the Conn Entry to the designated Attribute in the Work Entry; Output Maps copy data the other way.

But AttributeMaps can also be based on JavaScript code that computes a value (or set of values) for an Attribute. Scripted Attribute Maps must set ret.value to whatever value to be returned: ret.value = "inetOrgPerson";

Finally, an Attribute can have its value computed using a TDI Expression.
