Intersection Activity
The Intersection activity identifies common elements between two datasets. It creates a new dataset containing only the items present in both original datasets. Both input datasets must share the same data pattern for a successful operation.
| Field | Description | Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Dataset name | Reference name of the dataset used for operations. | Required |
| Dataset name 2 | Reference name of the second dataset selected for processing. | Required |
| New dataset name | Reference name for the dataset that will be created. | Required |
Action Types & Examples

- Format: string
- Example Result: "intersectionDS"
Implementation Examples
Field Setup - Dataset name: newDS - Dataset name 2: newDS2 - New dataset name: intersectionDS
Execution Parameters - Dataset name: newDS - Dataset name 2: newDS2 - New dataset name: intersectionDS
Technical Notes
The Intersection activity performs a set-based comparison. For optimal performance and accurate results, ensure that the data types and structures within corresponding fields of both input datasets are consistent. The activity will create a new dataset with a schema identical to the input datasets, containing only the records found in both.
