A data flow design system is presented that includes support for both static elements and dynamic elements. Thus, the data flow design system provides a design environment graphical tool to users to design data flows that leverage both the repeatability of static elements and the adaptability of dynamic elements. Static elements process data that typically do not change over time, while dynamic elements process data that do change. For instance, new data fields are added to an input data source of a data flow. The dynamic elements automatically link the new data fields to mapping fragments of the data flow. Mapping fragments process data based on configuration parameters including expression and filter rules. Users use a user interface of the design environment to view and add mapping fragments, static links, and dynamic links to the data flow.
