Join us to learn about Dataweave – The power of Preview and Online Dataweave playground Features. Join our DataWeave overview session. DataWeave is a powerful tool for data transformation, integration and mapping. It is a domain-specific language (DSL) developed by MuleSoft, which is designed to simplify the process of transforming data between various input and output formats, such as JSON, XML, CSV, and others.
What is Dataweave?
Are you not sure about the syntax you want to write? Are you always struggling to deploy your application to check whether your syntax or DW is correct or not? DataWeave Preview & Playground helps us to overcome it! Please make sure that your Tooling instance is running correctly. Or else this feature won’t be available.

Understanding Objects and Arrays
How to Identify an Object and an Array?
An Object is always enclosed with { } and contains key-value pair. Eg:
{ “name” : “Sravan” }
{ “name” : “Sravan” , “id” : “2”}
{ “Sravan” }
{ “name” : “Sravan” , “2”}
Transforming one data type to other
In Mule 3, we have separate connectors to convert from one type to another. In Mule 4, we use DataWeave to achieve this. DataWeave offers a simple and expressive syntax that allows developers to create complex data transformations easily. It provides a range of built-in functions and operators that make it easy to manipulate data and perform common tasks such as filtering, sorting, grouping, and aggregating data.
Eg :
JSON to XML
XML to JSON
JSON to CSV
And many more….

Summary
Checkout our complete MuleSoft Training to learn all about MuleSoft. We have 15+ session for you with Final Project. One of the key benefits of DataWeave is its ability to handle complex and hierarchical data structures. It can easily handle nested data structures and perform complex operations on them, making it ideal for working with data from APIs, databases, and other sources.
Overall, DataWeave is a powerful and flexible tool that can help developers save time and effort when working with data transformation and integration tasks.
