# Set up message

Use messages as the carriers that transport data from a source to a target, based on the mapping as defined on the message.

On a message you define:

- The source information: the connector and document that is used for the data source.
- The target information: the connector and document that is used for the data target.
- The record mapping and field mapping that define which data goes where in which format.

This flow explains how to set up the message header.
