Integrate Data Processing Engine with Context Service
Integrate the Data Processing Engine (DPE) definitions with Context Service to read
data from context definitions, transform it, and write it back to a specified JSON structure for
downstream processes.
Context Definitions contain a complete set of information required to execute a particular
process. Using context definitions, you can efficiently access data through every step of your
app’s processes.
To see the standard definitions available in your org, in Setup, find and select Context
Definitions.
You can extend, clone, or edit context definitions and simplify the sharing of business
application data with other features in Context Service. See Context Service.
Business Use Case: Transform Data for Document Generation
Context Service uses the Data Processing Engine (DPE) to facilitate advanced data
transformations for Document Generation (DocGen) within Salesforce
Revenue Cloud. DocGen streamlines the creation of contracts, proposals, and invoices by
using templates. While context definition and mapping manage the basic JSON data structure,
DPE carries out complex, scalable transformations tailored to your business needs.
Example Use DPE to transform product bundle and quote line hierarchies, group data by price
range or product selling model, and apply formulas to derive calculated values.
Configure Writeback Nodes as JSON Configure a JSON output to send transformed context data to downstream processes in the required format and hierarchy.
