If the decision system is a file system, it expects a file in Excel or a text file format.<\/p>\n<p>The send pipeline will help in transforming the outgoing XML data to the expected format, such as Excel or text file format. In addition to transforming data, pipelines also help in applying validations, encryption, and decryption of data.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Schemas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Schemas are the structures that allow data from external systems to be transformed into XML format.
