Generate Mapping Recommendations

You can generate mapping recommendations using the Recommend Recommend icon option. This option generates mapping recommendations based on metadata and mapping combinations that are stored in a public mapper repository.

When you use this option for mapping recommendations by specifying sources, it checks the public mapper repository and suggests mapping recommendations that closely match your use case. The public mapper repository contains metadata and mapping combinations from recipes and accelerators. When a user requests for a mapping recommendation, this option checks the public mapper repository for metadata and mapping recommendations that are similar or close to the metadata of the request, and then suggests mapping recommendations.
