32 cards. Read the term and the definition here. The deck at the top of this page is optional.
- Process Call shape
- A shape that runs a child process synchronously within the parent execution and returns the child's documents to the parent for further processing.
- Process Route shape
- A shape that invokes another process asynchronously without waiting for completion, so no documents are returned to the calling process.
- Decision shape
- A branching shape that evaluates configured conditions in order and follows the first branch whose condition evaluates to true.
- Route shape
- A branching shape that evaluates all configured routes, allowing a single document to be sent to more than one matching path.
- Try/Catch shape
- An error-handling shape that encloses other shapes and runs a catch path when an error occurs, with configurable stop, continue, or rethrow behavior.
- Dynamic process property
- A property persisted at the account level that survives across process executions, unlike a standard process property scoped to one execution.
- Listener process
- A process started by an incoming event or document arrival rather than by a schedule, typically used for real-time or near-real-time integration.
- Flow Control shape
- A shape that limits how many documents a single process execution processes, holding or failing documents beyond the configured maximum.
- Profile
- A reusable definition of a document's structure, expressed as flat file, XML, JSON, or EDI, that serves as the source or target of maps.
- Map component
- A component that transforms fields from a source profile into a target profile, using direct mappings, built-in functions, or user-defined functions.
- Cross-reference table
- A reusable lookup component referenced from a map that translates a source value into a corresponding target value during transformation.
- Document cache
- An in-memory key/value store available for the duration of one process execution, used to avoid repeating lookups inside loops.
- Cleanse shape
- A shape that standardizes document values, such as trimming whitespace, normalizing case, and applying replacement rules, before mapping or persistence.
- Find Changes shape
- A shape that compares incoming documents against a stored baseline using a key field and emits only the documents that changed.
- User-defined function
- A custom map function written in a scripting language such as JavaScript or Groovy, invoked from a map when built-in functions are insufficient.
- Flat-file profile
- A profile describing delimited or fixed-width records, requiring configured delimiters or column positions and a defined record structure for parsing.
- API component
- A component that exposes one or more processes as REST resources, each with a path, an HTTP method, and an underlying process.
- Rate limiting
- A gateway policy that caps the number of requests a client may make within a short time window, returning an error when exceeded.
- Quota policy
- A gateway policy that caps the total number of requests a client may make over a longer period, such as per day or per month.
- Developer portal
- A published site that documents available APIs and lets consumers register applications and obtain credentials for access.
- Private API
- An API reachable only from within the account's network or through a configured gateway, not directly from the public internet.
- API versioning
- The practice of publishing a new API version and explicitly deprecating the prior one, so consumers target a specific version path.
- OAuth 2.0 client credentials
- An authentication flow in which a client application exchanges its own credentials for an access token without involving an end user.
- HTTP 429 response
- The status code returned when a client exceeds a configured rate limit or quota, indicating the request was rejected for too many requests.
- AI-assisted mapping
- A feature that proposes source-to-target field mappings from profile names, descriptions, and sample data, requiring human review before activation.
- Document Intelligence
- A capability that extracts structured fields from unstructured documents such as PDFs and invoices, producing data that can be mapped downstream.
- Retrieval-augmented generation
- A pattern that chunks and embeds documents into a vector store, then retrieves similar chunks at query time to ground the model's response.
- Embedding
- A numeric vector representation of text that places semantically similar content near each other, enabling similarity search in a vector store.
- LLM connector operation
- A connector action invoked from a process that sends a prompt to a language model and parses the response into a document for mapping.
- Agent
- An LLM-driven component that selects and invokes available tools to accomplish a goal rather than following a fixed process path.
- Tool
- A callable capability exposed to an agent, usually a process or API with a defined input and output schema the agent can invoke.
- Human-in-the-loop checkpoint
- A control that pauses an agent before a high-impact action and requires explicit human approval before the agent continues execution.
