Ingestion mappings (read-only)
Outcome
You can read the mapping each of your feeds runs today — which kind of record each row becomes, which column fills which field, and how each value is converted — and you know who to ask when a feed needs a change.
Mappings are read-only
The mapping editor (New draft, Edit as draft, the visual builder, the dry run and Publish) and the fixed-width parser-config builder have been retired, and Configuration no longer lists Mappings. MedSuite builds each feed's importer — and any change to one — in the Import Desk and publishes it to the feed. Ask your MedSuite contact when a feed needs a change.
Every published mapping keeps loading files exactly as before.
Prerequisites
| Scope | What it lets you do |
|---|---|
config.read | Open Feeds and a feed's read-only mapping |
Read a feed's mapping
- Configuration → Feeds, open the feed.
- Choose Mapping (read-only).
- Pick a version from Versions (newest first) and read it as YAML, or as Field lineage — which column fills each field, and how.
- Field reference lists every field a mapping can fill.
On a fixed-width feed, the Parser Config tab shows the saved fixed-width layout read-only, above the file layout and controls.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| A feed's files load nothing | No importer is published to the feed yet | Ask MedSuite to build and publish it. |
| A live batch fails after a file format change | The published mapping no longer matches the file | Read the version in Field lineage, then ask MedSuite to rebuild the importer. |
