Details

The TokenGather component receives incoming tokens from any input port and copies them to all connected output ports - each incoming token is copied to all output ports. Input ports and output ports can have any metadata. Copying from input metadata to output metadata is based on field names - field value is moved to output token if and only if output token has field with identical name.
