DataWeave, a transformation language used in MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform, isn’t directly available in Apex, Salesforce’s programming language. However, Apex offers native features like collections, loops, and conditionals for data manipulation. Custom Apex classes can be created for structured data representation and transformation methods. Third-party libraries on Salesforce might supplement Apex with additional transformation functionalities.
Alternatively, complex transformations can be performed externally with external services, integrated via APIs. Middleware platforms like MuleSoft can handle DataWeave transformations outside of Salesforce, with Salesforce integrating through APIs. Despite the absence of DataWeave, Salesforce provides a variety of tools and integration options for achieving similar data transformation tasks within its ecosystem.
