Response Mapping

Response Mapping is a response attribute returned in JSON/ XML format from the managed system for a specific operations like create user, update user, or account aggregation.

  1. In the Schema Attribute field, enter the attributes expected in the JSON or XML response from the URL as a part of the schema.

  2. In the Attribute Path field, enter the JSON or XML path of the specific attribute in the returned response. The Root Path is prefixed with this path. The Root Path configured in Response Information is prefixed to the attribute path you enter.

    For example, based on the examples in Response Information:

    • JSON:

      Root Path

      Attribute Path

      Resulting JSON Path

      $.members.profile

      member_id

      $.members.profile.member_id

    • XML:

      Root Path

      Attribute Path

      Resulting XPath

      //wd:Response_Data/wd:Worker/wd:Worker_Data

      sf:FirstName

      //wd:Response_Data/wd:Worker/wd:Worker_Data/sf:FirstName

  3. Select Save.

In the Web Services source, you have to add the schema attributes manually for the respective Web Services-based target system. The source accurately handles any incorrect JSON attribute paths in the endpoint's response mapping configuration.
