In this example, you have a template transformation to load transaction data values from a supplier’s spreadsheet, filter specific values to examine, and output them to a text file. The template transformation is injected with metadata values stored in Microsoft spreadsheets.

The example is in the pentaho/design-tools/data-integration/samples/transformations/metadata-injection-example folder of your PDI distribution. The folder contains the following structure:


Metadata injection example folder strucutre

Microsoft spreadsheets containing input data are stored in the metadata-injection-example/data/in folder. Metadata values are stored in spreadsheets within the metadata-injection-example/metadata folder. The template and the transformation for injecting the metadata are in the metadata-injection-example/transformations folder.

Note: This example assumes a basic understanding of working with transformations and steps.
