Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving input data via a transformation UI, generating transformation configuration data, causing the transformation UI to present transformation object data per the transformation configuration data, where the transformation object data identifies data objects each including an input and output field name and a data type, detecting, from the transformation UI, an instruction defining a mapping for the input data, including a modification to the output field name of a data object such that the input field name of the data object is mapped to the modified output field name, based on the detecting the instruction, modifying the first transformation configuration data per the mapping to derive second transformation configuration data, performing a transformation of the input data based on the second transformation configuration data, and causing the transformation UI to present a transformation output. Other embodiments are disclosed.
