Data Operators

Data Operators expose real-time data, stored oin Paygate, to mappings.

Example

If you need to use a bank account number and sortcode in a mapping you could ‘hard code’ the number into a mapping using constants. But what would happen if someone changed the bank account in the Paygate Admin area - the mapping would be out of date.

To prevent problems like this and ensure your mappings always use up to date data you can use Data Operators such as the Bank Account ndoe.

When a mapping is run using a Data Operator node, the ,mapping engine looks up the data from the Paygate database ensuring the most up to dat data is always used.
