Chapter 8. Creating CloudConnect Graphs

Within any CloudConnect project, you need to create CloudConnect graph. In the following sections we are going to describe how you can create your graphs:

  1. As the first step, you must create an empty graph in a project. See Creating Empty Graphs.

  2. As the second step, you must create the transformation graph by using graph components, elements and others tools. See Creating a Simple Graph in a Few Simple Steps for an example in which we want to show you an example of the transformation graph creation.

[Note]Note

Remember that once you have already some CloudConnect project in you workspace and have opened the CloudConnect perspective, you can create your next CloudConnect projects in a slightly different way:

  • You can create directly a new CloudConnect project from the main menu by selecting FileNewCloudConnect Project or select FileNewProject... and select the CloudConnect Project item from the project creation dialog.

  • You can also right-click inside the Navigator pane and select either directly NewCloudConnect Project or NewProject... and select the CloudConnect Project item from the project creation dialog.

Please copy the demodata directory to the newly created CloudConnect project. You will find the the new CloudConnect project directory in your workspace directory. Just copy the demodata directory from the example files archive to the project's directory. You may also need to right-click the project in the CloudConnect Navigator and select Refresh from the popup menu.
