Event log input fields
If your data for cases and events is available in one input file, you use the Event log app template.
If you want to create a new Event log or Custom process app, you must upload a dataset that contains the data to be used in the process app.
tsv
(tab-separated) file or .csv
(comma-separated) file that contains a column for each input field.
Event_log_raw
.
Your input data file can have different fields or different field names. However, some fields are mandatory, which means that the data must be available in your input data file for a correct working the process app.
NULL

Below is an overview of the different field types and their default format settings.

Automated
is part of the input data. However, if you need to derive whether an event is automated or not, you need to customize this
in the data transformations to create that logic based on the required information. It is recommended to do this in the Event_log.sql
file. Locate the statement that contains ...as "Automated"
and replace it, for example, with a statement as displayed below.
case when Event_log_base."User" = 'A' then {{pm_utils.to_boolean('true')}} else {{pm_utils.to_boolean('false')}} end as "Automated"
case when Event_log_base."User" = 'A' then {{pm_utils.to_boolean('true')}} else {{pm_utils.to_boolean('false')}} end as "Automated"
