Filter data using simple expression

Use filter transformation

It is possible to filter out certain rows of the source dataset using simple expression.

Filter is available under Mappings/ Additional Transformations/ Filter. 

A JavaScript Filter must return true (include record) or false (exclude record).

The field values can be referenced from JavaScript code, using the "field name".

If Use SQL like syntax for Filter is selected, you can use operands available in SQL, for example, <>, and, or, etc. Otherwise, only JavaScript operands, for example, !=, &&, and || are allowed.

An example of JavaScript-like filter expression:
