Creating normalization rules

Create the normalization rules for normalizing the data ingested by Oomnitza.

You can't create normalization rules for unique and system fields. If you are adding a normalization rule for the name of a custom object, a checkbox, or a date timestamp, review Data types and normalization rules.   

Tip
Instead of using string matches, you can use regex or Jinja to add more complex rules. For example, instead of creating multiple string rules to normalize the values of different operating system types, you can use regex or Jinja to create a single rule. See Sample Jinja and regex normalization rules.

Procedure

1. In the sidebar, click Rules.
2. Click Add.
3. Enter the name of the field.
4. From the Type list, select one of the following options:
   • String Match
   • Regex
   • Jinja
5. In the priority field, enter a number. If you have multiple normalization rules, you can specify in which order they are run. The highest value is 1.
6. Enter the value for the target field. For example, the value that is ingested is Microsoft Windows and you want to replace it with Windows, you enter Microsoft Windows as the target field value.
7. Enter the value that you want to replace the target field value with. For example, the value that is ingested is Microsoft Windows and you want to replace it with Windows, you enter Windows as the new value.  
8. Click Save & Close.
