Format
Example
Description
“{TargetFieldName}” : “$${SourceFieldName}”
“Name” : “$$Name“
Value of the field “Name” from the source object will be copied into the field “Name” of the target object.
“{TargetFieldName}” : “$${SourceFieldName}”
“Name“ : “$$Description“
Value of the “Description” field from the source object is copied into the “Name” field of the target object.
{TargetFieldName}” : “Static value”
“Status” : “Request“
Static value “Request“ is copied into the “Status” field of the target object.
Static value “Clone“ is appended to the value of the “Name” field from the source object and then the result will be copied into the “Name” field of the target object.
“{TargetFieldName}” : “Static value + $${SourceFieldName}”
“Name“ : “Copy of - $$Name“
Static value “Copy of“ will be prepended to the value of the field “Name” from the source object and then the result is copied into the “Name” field of the target object.
“{TargetFieldName}” : “$$${ContextFieldName}”
“ExecutedDate“ : “$$$CURRENT_DATE“
Current date is copied into the ExecutedDate field of the target object.
One day is added to the current date and the result is copied into the ExecutedDate field of the target object. This arithmetic operation works only if the context field type is either number or date.
Three days are deducted from the current date and the result is copied into the ExecutedDate field of the target object. This arithmetic operation works only if the context field type is either number or date.
