merge
In Control Scripts, the root level instance of the object merge is the entry point from where you
can query and change the way contexts are merged. It gives access to the template with all its
contexts and sections.
For more information about Control Scripts, see "Control Scripts" on page828 and "Control
Script API" on page1280.
Some of the objects are also useful in Post Pagination Scripts; see "Post Pagination Scripts"
on page843 and "Post Pagination Script API" on page1310.
For sample scripts, follow the links to the respective objects.
Field Type Description
channel "Channel"
on
page1307
The final output channel: EMAIL, PRINT or WEB. The channel
doesn't change when the output consists of different contexts.
When generating an email, for example, the channel is EMAIL,
even when merging the Print context to attach it to the email.
"context"
on
page1312
Context The context rendered by this merge run. If for one record,
different contexts need to be output (for example, when the
Print context is attached to an email) a record is merged
multiple times: once per context. Per merge run,
merge.context shows with which context the record is
merged.
"section"
on
page1318
Section
In Standard Scripts, this object defines the section that is being
merged.
Note! In Control Scripts, merge.section is only available when
the output channel is WEB. To make sure that it is defined, use
