Source samples pulls a few rows from each table so you can see real values while you map fields.

What Source samples does

Steerco reads up to 10 rows from each table you selected. If you haven’t selected tables, it reads every table it found. It reads every field, including fields you haven’t mapped yet. The values appear in two places:
  • Under each mapped field on the Configure Mapping tab.
  • In the Source samples dialog, table by table.
Source samples does not change your sync. It adds no records to Steerco, and your next sync starts where the last one stopped.

When to use it

  • Before you map fields, to check which field holds the value you want.
  • After you add tables, to confirm they return data.
  • When a mapped field looks empty after a sync, to check whether the tool has values for it.
