Hello Everybody,
I want to know how merge stage works.
I know that we can merge columns from different sources.

Do Merge key need to have same metadata?
1) same column name
2) same type
and same length.


Thanks in Advance
Nair

Both the column name and the data type should be the same. If you have the column name as different use the modify stage to rename it.

Merge keys length lan be different
