Map data from an XM data source to a component

To map data from an XM data source to a component:

  1. Add an element to the component, or click an existing element.

  2. In the right-hand pane, in the Content section, click the attribute you want to configure for the selected element. For example, for an Image element, the attributes that can be configured with mapped data are Image source, Caption, Image alternative text, or Link.

  3. Click Mapped to open the Data collection dialog.

  4. In the Data collection dialog, in the Source step, select the relevant XM data source from the drop-down list.

    Note

    If you've previously selected a data source for this component, it is automatically selected when the dialog appears. Click the Source icon or the Back button at the bottom of the right -hand pane if you need to select a different one.

  5. In the Data collection dialog box, in the Path step, the data tree displays applicable properties that can be used as value for the attribute. Click the appropriate property for the attribute.

  6. Click Complete.
