Define Custom Data Types
If built-in data types aren’t suitable for an input node in your decision model, you can create a custom data type.
A custom data type can be a new complex data type or an alias of a built-in data type. Further, to create a complex data type, you can use a combination of built-in data types or other complex data types. While configuring an input node, you can assign a custom data type to it by selecting Other Type in the Mode field. See Create Input Data.
Further, you can define a custom data type in one of the following ways:
- Manually define each custom data type. See Construct a Data Type.
- Import a JSON sample or schema containing custom data types. See Import a JSON Schema.
