selectin

Select rows in data extract to keep if they exactly match a given value.

Introduction

Use the selectin enrichment to find and keep rows in a data extract. Only the rows of the data extract that are an exact match of the values entered in the enrichment configuration are kept, and all other rows are removed. This search is case-sensitive.

Creating the enrichment

For more information on creating an enrichment, see Using custom scripts.

Configuring the enrichment

To configure the enrichment, fill in the following fields. Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).

Field*

Enter the name of the column that contains the value used to identify which row to keep.

Select a column in one of the following ways:

  • Select String and enter the name of the column.

  • Select Integer and enter the position of the column in the data extract as an index value. Counting starts at 0. To select the first column, enter 0. To select the second column, enter 1. To select the last column in the data extract, enter -1.

Value*

Enter the value used to identify which row to keep. To add multiple values to the search criteria, click + and enter another value. The search is case-sensitive and only the values in the data extract that are an exact match are kept.

Complement

Select this field to reverse the enrichment. Any rows that match the search criteria are removed and the rows that do not match the criteria are kept.

Subtable

Enter the name for a subtable that you want to contain the enriched data. The enrichment is applied to the whole data extract, then the enriched data is output into the subtable you have named here.

This subtable is a temporary table, which means it only exists for this custom script. You can apply additional instructions within the same custom script to the subtable. However, the subtable cannot be used in any other custom scripts.
