A concatenate transformation can combine:
The concatenated values are assigned to a single new dimension or property.
To include the new property in searches, you must add it to the fields array of your search interface.
You can concatenate localized properties with non-localized properties. The resulting property is localized. You cannot, however, concatenate properties that are localized to different locales.
The following JSON example creates a record property named all.colors and assigns to it, as a single unitary value, the concatenated values of the existing record properties shirt.color, dress.color, and pants.color:
{
"ecr:type": "attributes-owner-folder",
"all.colors": {
"propertyDataType": "ALPHA",
"ecr:type": "property",
"indexingTransforms": [
{
"transform": "concatenate",
"sourcePropertyNames": [
"shirt.color",
"dress.color",
"pants.color"
]
}
]
}
}
For example, suppose that values are assigned to the source properties as follows:
"shirt.color": "Red", "dress.color": "Yellow, Black, Red", "pants.color": "Orange"
The concatenate transformation above assigns the follow value to the output property all.colors:
"all.colors": "Red Yellow, Black, Red Orange"
