Anaplan model data source

Hi Anaplanners,

I am working on an existing model and have some queries:

1. Some lists and modules get data from informatica cloud, how can I know what all modules or lists get data from informatica cloud, also I cannot find this under Actions or Imports right?

2. To load a list from informatica cloud, what all configuration do I need to do in my Model, can I directly get data into the list?.

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Kamil

I would suggest reading through the documentation on the Anaplan connector for Informatica Cloud. It may help clarify a few things.

Hey Kamil,

In addition to Ryan's post,

Not sure where in Informatica to find Anaplan tasks (I don't have access to an Informatica sandbox) but in Anaplan, your Anaplan import actions should have a good naming convention to indicate source. There are also places where Anaplan WSAs can add notes about an import in Settings->Actions.

To answer you 2nd q, you need to first create Anaplan import actions to import into lists and modules.

Hope this helps

I couldn't find any formula to do this, but I want a way to put on the page/grid the connection details. This is so I know what connection I'm in rather than going into Connections details to see it. Is there an XL3 formula to return this value?
