Logging the execution of a transformation configuration

You can generate a log of the execution of a transformation configuration. A log provides information on rule execution, the source elements, and the target elements. You can use the log to learn how a transformation converts source elements to target elements. You can also use the log for debugging purposes if the transformation does not generate the expected output. The log is generated as an XML file in the .metadata folder in your workspace.

To log the execution of a transformation configuration:
  1. Click Modeling > Transform > Configure Transformations.
  2. In the Configure Transformations window, in the Transformations/Configurations list, complete one of the following steps:
    • To edit an existing transformation configuration, select a transformation configuration.
    • To create a new transformation configuration, click New, in the Name box, type a name.
  3. Click the Common tab.
  4. On the Common page, click Log transformation execution.
  5. Click Apply.
  6. Click Close.
The next time you run the transformation, the log is displayed in the Console view.
