Projects
A project is a container for HCL Link artifacts.
- Flows
  This documentation describes how Flows can be run from REST API, listeners, or they can be scheduled.
- Maps
  Maps define input and output specifications and mapping rules for data transformation.
  - Using Maps
  - Create maps to specify sources and targets
  - Maps and map source files
    Basic tasks involved in creating and managing maps.

      - WorkArea
      - Fetch Unit
      - Connection
      - Command Line
      - Action properties
        Each adapter defines a set of properties that are configured to specify the source of the data for the input card.

- Schemas
  Use the schema designer to define, modify, and view schemas. A schema describes the syntax, structure, and semantics of your data.
- Connections and Actions
  This documentation describes connections and actions.
- Files
  Files are used in various places within HCL Link. HCL Link allows files to be uploaded to the HCL Linkserver.

Command Line

When the Use Command Line property is set, the Command Line card setting provides the adapter-specific commands to connect to the data source and retrieve the input data. For example, if the input data is coming from a file, the Command Line specifies the name of the input file. If the input data is coming from a database, the Command Line might include the database name, user ID, password, and so on.

The command syntax for the source and target adapter commands is detailed in the adapter-specific documentation. The maximum length of a source or target adapter command is 2000 bytes. Limitations to the maximum adapter command length may apply to some adapters.
