Input format

From Piki

An input format is an element of a data unit responsible for filling the unit with data. Usually this means translating external data to the internal Synapse format but formats can also generate data on the fly.

Input formats usually have two levels: base and GUI. The base layer can be deployed while the GUI layer is generally a wizard-type interface invoked from the data unit manager
