Data store modules

An Adobe Workfront Fusion data store, similar to a database or a simple table, can store data from scenarios, making it possible to transfer data between individual scenarios or scenario runs. You can use a data store to store new data from various systems during synchronization.

The data store modules enable you to add, replace, update, retrieve, delete, search, or count records in your Adobe Workfront Fusion data store.

Prerequisites

To use Data Store modules, you must first create a data store.

For information on creating data stores, see Create and manage data stores.

Data store modules and their fields

When you configure Data Store modules, Workfront Fusion displays the fields listed below. Along with these, additional Data Store fields might display, depending on factors such as your access level in the app or service. A bolded title in a module indicates a required field.

You do not need to create a connection to use data stores.

If you see the map button above a field or function, you can use it to set variables and functions for that field. For more information, see Map information from one module to another.
