</process>

The above process is a process that additionally connects 'set role' to the 'Rename by Example Values' operator's tutorial.

'Rename by Example Values' changes the column name, but 'set role' does not recognize the changed name.

Am I doing something wrong? Please confirm

thank you

Hi @kimjk,

If I understand your problem correctly, when trying to use Set Role you don't see the new attribute names available? This is likely due to the metadata not catching up, I would suggest enabling the option shown in the screenshot below and adding a breakpoint before the Set Role operator. For me this then works.

Best,

Roland


EDIT: Also just to add that manually typing the attribute names into the appropriate fields in Set Role also works, the metadata not catching up simply means you can't select from a drop down.
