How do you pass data from OmniScript to a DataRaptor Extract?

• A. Leave the OmniScript data unmapped and rely on defaults.
• B. Map the relevant OmniScript context data as input fields in the DataRaptor Extract step.
• C. Hard-code the input values in the DataRaptor Extract configuration.
• D. Use a separate data source outside OmniScript.

Answer: (B)

Passing data from OmniScript to a DataRaptor Extract relies on mapping the values from the OmniScript context to the input fields of the DataRaptor Extract. By defining input mappings in the DataRaptor Extract step, you feed runtime OmniScript data (such as user-entered values or computed context) into the extractor so it can perform a parameterized query and return results that OmniScript can use next. Without mapping, DataRaptor may run with missing or default inputs, which won’t give the desired results; hard-coding inputs defeats dynamic user data; and using an external data source adds unnecessary complexity.
