Using Data Modify to Replace Normalizer Chaining

You can use a single data modify action (DMA) in a data modify profile (DMP) for a Name or Description normalizer chaining replacement.

Although the combination of DMP and DMA cannot run normalizers, it can access the data (name, description, metadata) from a normalizer that has been run in a rate table. You use the DMA to copy the Name or Description field value from a normalizer in a rate table to the destination field.

To use a DMA to replace a normalizer chaining:

  1. Set the DMA source to Metadata and the source type to normalizer.
  2. Select the normalizer you want to replace, select either Name or Description based on what you are replacing.
  3. Set the destination to a message or a workspace field.
  4. After creating the DMA, add it to a DMP and assign the DMP to a rate table. The rate table must contain the normalizer you are extracting chaining data from.
Note: The order of DMAs in a DMP is guaranteed. You cannot use a DMA to remove rate tables.
