Datastream Mapping: enabling mapping from XDM to the data object

Description -

At the moment you can't map fields from an incoming XDM object to the data object.

 

Why is this feature important to you -

We want to be able to have a 'clean' XDM object sent from the client to the Datastream, and then in the Datastream map values to the data object to populate Adobe Analytics.

As we can't do this at the moment, we have to duplicate things client-side. e.g. we put the value in XDM for the RT-CDP and duplicate that value in the data object for Adobe Analytics.  This causes the most pain on mobile apps where we are more reliant on developers to do the setting of variables.

 

How would you like the feature to work -

When mapping fields in a Datastream, I want to be able to set paths in the data object as the 'Target Field'

 

Current Behaviour -

Currently it returns an error "Invalid schema path"

This is a great sugestion. Something as simple as a checkbox for 'Data is XDM compatable' like for the data mapping step in many of the other AEP Connections would suffice.
