Channels: Field Types

When matching the fields to import or export from the connector inside the platform, you will see that there are different types of fields:

• Normal type field: It is used by default for most of the fields to match in the platform.

• Image/file type field: This is used to specifically map image or file type fields. In the case of an image, it gives you the option to choose the quality and the available format or size that you need. You cannot add formulas if you select this kind of field.

• Template type field: Autocomplete allows you to select any of the available fields in the table to extract content from them and insert them in the conditions/HTML tags created in the template. Output format allows you to choose among different formats. It is usually used with the purpose of inserting information on the web. If you have several languages connected, another field will also appear for you to select the language.

          As an example:

         {{IF product_decription}}

             <h4> product description: </h4>

             <p> {{product_decription}} </p>

             {{IF END}}

        Once again, you cannot apply formulas to this field type. 

• Header type field: It gives you the option of using the field as a title. This field can be found in the Instant Catalog connector. This field type does not allow formulas either.
