2. In the Execution window, select the execution parameters:

■ Select the Context into which the interface must be executed. ■ Select the Logical Agent that will run the interface. 3. Click OK. 4. The Session Started Window appears. 5. Click OK.

11.4 Using the Quick-Edit Editor

You can use the Quick-Edit Editor to perform the same actions as on the Mapping tab of the Interface Editor in a non-graphical form: ■ Adding and Removing a Component ■ Editing a Component ■ Adding, Removing, and Configuring Datasets ■ Changing the Target DataStore The Quick-Edit Editor allows to: ■ Work with the Interface components in tabular form. ■ Perform mass updates of components properties when editing the components. See Section 11.4.2, Editing a Component for more information. ■ Use keyboard navigation for common tasks. See Section 11.4.6, Using Keyboard Navigation for Common Tasks for more information. The properties of the following components are displayed in tabular form and can be edited in the Quick-Edit Editor: ■ Sources ■ Lookups ■ Joins ■ Filters ■ Mappings Note that components already defined on the Mapping tab of the Interface Editor are displayed in the Quick-Edit Editor and that the components defined in the Quick-Edit Editor will also be reflected in the Mapping tab.

11.4.1 Adding and Removing a Component

With the Quick-Edit Editor, you can add or remove components of an integration interface.

11.4.1.1 Adding Components

To add a source, lookup, join, filter, or temporary target column with the Quick-Edit Editor: 1. In the Interface Editor, go to the Quick-Edit tab. 2. From the Select DataSet list, select the dataset to which you want to add the new components. 11-18 Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Data Integrator 3. Expand the section of the components to add.

4. From the toolbar menu, select Add.

5. The next tasks depend on the type of component you are adding: If you are adding a new temporary target column, a new line representing the temporary target column is added to your target datastore table. You can modify directly the cells of this temporary target column in the target datastore table according to your needs. If you are adding a source, lookup, join, or filter, a wizard will guide you through the next steps. ■ Add Sources Wizard ■ Lookup Tables Wizard ■ Join Table Wizard ■ Filter Table Wizard Add Sources Wizard Use the Add Sources Wizard to add the sources of your Interfaces. You can add datastores or integration interfaces as sources. To a datastore as a source of the Interface: 1. Select the Datastores tab. The Add Sources Wizard displays the list of datastores with their Models and Model folders that can be used as a source of the Interface. 2. From the list, select the datastore that you want to add as a source of the Interface. Note that you can browse through the list or filter this list by entering a partial or complete name of the datastore in the search field. 3. Modify the alias of the datastore optional.

4. Click OK.

To add an integration interface as a source of the Interface: 1. Select the Interfaces tab. The Add Sources Wizard displays the list of Interfaces. 2. From the list, select the Interface that you want to add as a source of the Interface. Note that you can browse through the list or filter this list by entering a partial or complete name of the Interface in the search field. 3. Modify the alias of the Interface optional.

4. Click OK.

Lookup Tables Wizard Use the Lookup Tables Wizard to add lookup tables to your integration interface. For more information, see Section 11.3.4.2, Define Lookups . Join Table Wizard Use the Join Table Wizard to create joins between the source datastores of an interface. To create a join:
