The Copy object from context to new location pipeline step
You use the Copy object from context to new location
pipeline step to copy an existing object from the configured source location to the configured target location. You can then use the copied object to run more pipelines without affecting the source object. This topic explains how the pipeline step works and how you configure it.
The template for the Copy object from context to new location
pipeline step is located in /sitecore/Templates/Data Exchange/Framework/Pipeline Steps/Copy Object from Context to New Location Pipeline Step .
Configuring the Copy object from context to new location pipeline step
You can configure the following information for the pipeline step:
Section |
Field |
Description |
---|---|---|
Location Settings |
Source Object Location |
The location of the object that you want to copy. |
Source Object Value Accessor |
If you are reading a specific object, you can optionally provide a value accessor to interpret the object. If you leave this value empty, Sitecore uses the source object directly. | |
Target Object Location |
The location you want to copy the object to. |
The pipeline step logic
The Copy object from context to new location
pipeline step copies the object based on the options you select in the fields in the Location Settings section.
For example, if you select the Pipeline Context Parent Source option for the Source Object Location field and the Pipeline Context Temp Storage option for the Target Object Location field, the pipeline step copies the object from the Pipeline Context Parent Source to the Pipeline Context Temp Storage.
