Default Data Mapping

This section contains information on the default fields for Confirmit inbound jobs.

• natural_id: A unique identifier of a document. It is highly recommended to have a unique ID for each document to process duplicates correctly. By default, XM Discover uses source IDs prefixed by the connector’s name via a custom transformation: Natural ID = Connector-name;Source-ID. You cannot edit this field.
• document_date: The primary date field associated with a document. This date is used in XM Discover reports, trends, alerts, and so on. You can choose one of the following options:
  • interiew_end: The date and time a respondent finished an interview. This is the default data for document_date.
  • interview_start: The date and time a respondent started an interview.
  • If source data contains other date fields, you can choose one of them.
  • You can also set a specific document date.
• feedback_provider: Identifies data obtained from a specific provider. For Confirmit uploads, this attribute’s value is set to “Confirmit” and cannot be changed.
• source: Identifies data obtained from a specific source. This can be anything that describes the origin of data, such as the name of a survey or a mobile marketing campaign. By default, this attribute’s value is set to “Confirmit.” Use custom transformations to set a custom value, define an expression, or map it to another field.
• feedback_type: Identifies data based on its type. This is useful for reporting when your project contains different types of data (for example, surveys and social media feedback). By default, this attribute’s value is set to “Survey”.
• job_name: Identifies data based on the name of the job used to upload it. You can modify this attribute’s value during the setup via the Job Name field that is displayed at the top of each page during the setup.
• loadDate: Indicates when a document was uploaded into XM Discover. This field is set automatically and cannot be changed.
