Substitutions

Substitution Table

Substitutions allow to dynamically replace any input value when executing an Action. This is, for example, useful, if you want to replace the source and destination ID of an Ember+ Matrix Trigger with a signal label in an Action.

Each substitution table has the following base parameters:

ParameterDescription
Table NameName to identify this model
Valid forFor which item type this Substitution Table is valid

Substitution Property

For each Substitution Property or Substitution, you would like to replace, you need to add a Substitution Property. The Substitution Property Name is used in the replacement process afterward.

Each substitution property has the following base parameters:

ParameterDescription
Property NameName to identify this model
Substitution TableThe associated Substitution Table
Enable Default ValueIf enabled, the Placeholder Replacer will use the DefaultValue, if no matching Substitution is found
When enabled, the Default Value will be used if no matching Substitution is found

Substitution

For each Substitution you want to replace, you need to add a Substitution. For example, if you would like to replace the source IDs 1 - 10, you need to add ten Substitution.

Each substitution has the following base parameters:

ParameterDescription
Substitution PropertyThe associated Substitution Property
Input ValueThe expected input value
