Action Maps

Action maps are used to connect actions to rules, so that actions can be invoked when a feature is found that does not conform to a rule.

Example Action Map

An action map consists of a table of rule and action pairs. Rows can be added, removed and edited.

If a feature does not conform to the rule on the left of the pair, the action on the right of the pair is invoked.

Note: If the left-hand part of the action map pair is left blank (no rule is specified), then the action is applied to all objects in the relevant class.

An action map can be supplied to the Apply Action Maps task in a session. When this task is executed, 1Integrate checks the rule in the action map. If the object does not conform to that rule, the associated action is invoked.
