Core Steps

Step	Summary
And	Returns true if all terms are true
ArrayConcat	Concatenates arrays or streams of entities
ArrayDistinct	Removes duplicate elements in an array or entities in an entity stream. By default, all entity properties are used to determine duplicates. This behaviour can be changed by using the KeySelector parameter.
ArrayElementAtIndex	Gets the array element at a particular index. The first element has an index of 0.
ArrayFilter	Filter an array or entity stream using a conditional statement
ArrayFind	Gets the first index of an element in an array. The index starts at 0. Returns -1 if the element is not present.
ArrayFirst	Gets the first element of an array or entity stream
ArrayGroupBy	Group elements in an array or entities in a stream using a function. Entities in the resulting array will have two properties Key and Values. The Key will be set according to the result of the function.
ArrayIsEmpty	Checks if an array is empty.
ArrayLast	Gets the last element of an array or entity stream
ArrayLength	Counts the elements in an array or entities in an entity stream.
ArrayMap	Map each element of an array or entity stream to a new value. This Step can be used to update elements of an array, or to update entity property values. The new value must have the same type as the original value.
ArrayNew	Represents an ordered collection of objects.
ArraySkip	Skip the first n elements of an array or entity stream
ArraySort	Reorder an array or entity stream
ArrayTake	Take the first n elements of an array or entity stream
AssertEqual	Asserts that two objects are equal. Both objects must have the same type.
AssertError	Returns success if the ValueIf step returns an error and a failure otherwise.
AssertTrue	Returns an error if the nested step does not return true.
CharAtIndex	Gets the letter that appears at a specific index. First letter is at index 0.
Clone	Creates an array by cloning an element.
ConvertSizeUnits	Convert a string representing a data size to a string representing the same size but with different units.
DateToString	Converts a date to the specified format, yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss by default. If no date is specified, uses the current date and time.
Delay	Delay for a specified amount of time
Divide	Divide an integer by a list of integers
DocumentationCreate	Generates documentation for all available steps.
DoNothing	Does nothing.
DoubleDivide	Divide a double by a list of doubles
DoublePower	Raises a double to the power of a list of integers sequentially
DoubleProduct	Calculate the product of a list of doubles
DoubleSubtract	Subtract a list of numbers from a number
DoubleSum	Calculate the sum of a list of doubles
EntityCombine	Combine two entities. Property values of the second entity will be prioritized.
EntityFormat	Formats an entity as a string
EntityGetProperties	Gets the names of all properties of an entity
EntityGetValue	Gets the value of a property from an entity
EntityHasProperty	Checks if an entity has a particular property.
EntityMapProperties	Rename entity properties
EntityRemoveProperty	Returns a copy of the entity with the specified property removed
EntitySetValue	Returns a copy of the entity with this property set. Will add a new property if the property is not already present.
Equals	Returns true is all terms are equal
For	Do an action for each value of <i> in a range.
ForEach	Do an action for each element in an array
GetApplicationVersion	Gets the current version of the application
GetAutomaticVariable	Gets the value of the automatic variable
GetConnectorInformation	Gets information about connectors
GetSettings	Get an entity containing SCL settings
GetVariable	Gets the value of a named variable.
GreaterThan	Returns true if each term is less than the next term
GreaterThanOrEqual	Returns true if each term is greater than or equals to the next term
Hash	Produce a hash for some data using the specified hash algorithm
HttpRequest	Makes a Http Request to download data from the web. Returns a StringStream containing binary encoded data.
If	Executes a statement if a condition is true.
IncrementVariable	Increment an integer variable by a particular amount
IsNull	Checks if a step returns null
LessThan	Returns true if each term is less than the next term
LessThanOrEqual	Returns true if each term is less than or equals to the next term
Log	Write a value to the logs
Modulo	Modulo a number by a list of integers sequentially
Not	Negation of a boolean value.
NotEquals	Returns true if each term is not equal to the next term
Or	Returns true if any terms are true
Power	Raises an integer to the power of a list of integers sequentially
Print	Prints a value to the console.
Product	Calculate the product of a list of integers
Repeat	Repeat a step a set number of times.
Round	Round an SCL double to a fixed number of decimal places
RunExternalProcess	Runs an external executable program.
RunSCL	Runs SCL defined in a StringStream
RunStep	Runs another step, reads the output to the end, and ignores it.
SchemaCreate	Create a new schema by analysing the entity properties and values in an array or an entity stream. This Step is best used with data sources where the property values already have a data type (string, date, int...) such as JSON or databases. For generating schemas from flat data sources such as Concordance or CSV, use the SchemaCreateCoerced step, which will attempt to infer the property types.
SchemaCreateCoerced	Create a new schema by analysing the entity properties and values in an array or an entity stream. This Step is best used with flat data sources such as Concordance or CSV as it does additional processing to infer the data types of strings.
Sequence	A chain of steps to be run one after the other.
SetVariable	Sets the value of a named variable.
StandardErrorWrite	Writes to the console standard error
StandardInRead	Reads the Console standard input
StandardOutWrite	Writes to the console standard output
StringAppend	Appends a string to an existing string variable.
StringContains	Returns true if the String contains the substring.
StringFind	Gets the index of the first instance of a substring in a string. The index starts at 0. Returns -1 if the substring is not present.
StringFindLast	Gets the last instance of substring in a string. The index starts at 0. Returns -1 if the substring is not present
StringInterpolate	Joins strings. Supports string interpolation. To use string interpolation, the string must be enclosed in double quotes and prefixed with a dollar-sign ($). Then, anything in curly brackets { and } will be evaluated as SCL.
StringIsEmpty	Returns whether a string is empty.
StringJoin	Join strings with a delimiter.
StringLength	Calculates the length of the string.
StringMatch	Returns true if a string is matched by a particular regular expression
StringReplace	Replace every regex match in the string with the result of a particular function
StringSplit	Splits a string.
StringSubstring	Gets a substring from a string.
StringToBool	Converts a string to a boolean
StringToCase	Converts a string to a particular case.
StringToDate	Converts a date to the specified format, yyyyMMddHHmm by default. If no date is specified, returns the current time.
StringToDouble	Converts a string to a double
StringToInt	Converts a string to an integer
StringTrim	Trims a string, removing whitespace from the TrimSide.
Subtract	Subtract a list of numbers from a number
Sum	Calculate the sum of a list of integers
Transform	Attempts to transform entities in the stream so that they match the schema. Will transform strings into ints, datetimes, booleans, array, or nulls where appropriate. The properties of the transformed entities will be in the same order as in the schema For more information on schemas please see the documentation.
Try	Tries to execute a step and recovers if that step results in failure.
Validate	Validate that the schema is valid for all entities. Does not evaluate the entity stream. For more information on schemas please see the documentation.
While	Repeat an action while the condition is met.
