Hi Everyone, I have one requirement to create firstname and lastname with domain name all in lower case but here one condition to replace umlaut’s character from firstname and lastname as email configuration is not possible with umlaut character , I am getting null value error while using inside provisioning policy. Here is transform. Does anybody have any idea on this what’s wrong in this transform written here? I had cross check for null values but I dont find anything null within these attributes.

{
                "type": "lower",
                "attributes": {
                    "input": {
				"type":"replaceAll",
                 "attributes" :{
                   "input":{
                     "table": {
	                 "ä": "ae",
                     "ö": "oe",
                     "ü": "ue",
                       "ß": "ss"
                        },		
				
                        "type": "concat",
                        "attributes": {
                            "values": [
                                {
                                    "type": "identityAttribute",
                                    "attributes": {
                                        "name": "firstname"
                                    }                                    
                                },
                                ".",
                                {
                                    "type": "identityAttribute",
                                    "attributes": {
                                        "name": "lastname"
                                    }
                                },
                                "@demo.com"
                            ]
                        }
						
						}
						
                    }
                }
            }

Why not use the inbuilt ‘remove diacritic marks’ transform?

3

Hey first thing I have to use for provisioning, and I am not sure how it will interpret. Secondly requirement is not to remove such characters, we just need to append with e character at the last as i mentioned inside table

the transform works fine on provisioning and it only removes the mark. The inbuilt one does catch all of them so I made this one:

{
        "name": "Diacritical Marks",
        "type": "replaceAll",
        "attributes": {
          "input": {
            "type": "decomposeDiacriticalMarks"
          },
          "table": {
            "Å": "A",
            "å": "a",
            "Æ": "AE",
            "æ": "ae",
            "Ã": "A",
            "ã": "a",
            "Đ": "D",
            "đ": "d",
            "Ë": "E",
            "ë": "e",
            "Ħ": "H",
            "ħ": "h",
            "ı": "i",
            "Í": "I",
            "í": "i",
            "ĸ": "k",
            "Ł": "L",
            "ł": "l",
            "Ø": "O",
            "ø": "o",
            "Œ": "OE",
            "œ": "oe",
            "Þ": "P",
            "þ": "p",
            "ß": "s",
            "Ŧ": "T",
            "ŧ": "t"
          }
        },
        "internal": false
      }

Which gets all non-latin european/icelandic characters

Hi @LearningStar ,Can you try below pasted transform this may help you.

{
    "type": "lower",
    "attributes": {
        "input": {
            "type": "replaceAll",
            "attributes": {

                                }
                            },
                            "@demo.com"
                        ]
                    }

                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Thank you.

For future reference @pavya, when posting code it is helpful to place it within the code blocks and use proper indentation to make it readable for others here.

There is abutton for code block, and when formatted, it will make your code look like this:

{
  "type": "lower",
  "attributes": {
    "input": {
      "type": "replaceAll",
      "attributes": {
        "input": {
          "type": "concat",
          "attributes": {
            "values": [
              {
                "type": "identityAttribute",
                "attributes": {
                  "name": "firstname"
                }
              },
              ".",
              {
                "type": "identityAttribute",
                "attributes": {
                  "name": "lastname"
                }
              },
              "@demo.com"
            ]
          }
        },
        "table": {
          "ä": "ae",
          "ö": "oe",
          "ü": "ue",
          "ß": "ss"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi @LearningStar ,
Your transform is structured incorrectly, leading to a null value. Issues in Your Transform
Misplaced “replaceAll” Type:

“replaceAll” should wrap the “concat” operation, but in your structure, “concat” is inside “replaceAll” in a way that does not properly transform the values.
Incorrect Nesting of “input” in “replaceAll”:
“input” under “replaceAll” should directly reference “concat” rather than nesting it inside another “input” field.
And while creating and modifying transform use ISC extension in VS code .
