A data mapping is a table or array that associates data fields received from or sent to an external application with properties or other sources or destinations in Pega 7 Platform. Data mapping is defined in service and connector rule forms.
During an interchange between the Pega 7 Platform and an external system, one mapping occurs for the outgoing information call or message, and another for the incoming information call or message. At run time, Pega 7 Platform interprets the data mapping instructions in the rule forms and executes these instructions.
