Significance of System Name on Data Page
While creating a Data Page what is the expected value for 'System Name' on the Definition Tab ? It comes for each Data Sources.
If kept blank a warning comes as "Please enter a system name for the data transform data source (data source 1).", but the warning is displayed even if the Data Source is NOT a Data Transform.
Any insight on this will be appreciated.

Hi Saikat,
The System name field represents the name of the system that is associated with a data source. The system name is used to display the source systems for a data type on the External Data Entities landing page (The External Data Entities landing page provides a single, consolidated view of the external data entities that can be leveraged in the application).
For example, if your data source is a REST connector that connects to an external weather service such as Google Weather API, you can enter "Google Weather" as the system name.
Regards,
Evita.
