process.reject(message)
process.reject(group, message)

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
group	string	Optional. A group to list the message under in the log.
message	string	The reason the record was rejected.

Examples

data.js

function data(record) {
    // This function is called once for each line of data on the second cycle
    // Use this to build dimensions and push data into cubes

    if (record.name == "Demo") {
        process.reject("Error", "Rejecting record with name 'Demo'.");
    }

    // Continue rest of data function
}

Log

Rejection Log:
Group: Error
Rejecting record with name 'Demo'. [3]
