# Data Mapping cfxdm - dm:concat

**dm: concat:** This cfxdm function allows the user to merge two or more named datasets.

**dm:concat** syntax**:** 

* **names** (mandatory)**:** List of two or more named datasets, supports regex

{% hint style="info" %}
Please refer **to dm: save** and **dm: savedlist** functions on how to create and list named datasets.
{% endhint %}

Use **dm: savedlist** tag to list saved datasets

### Example 1:

Step 1: Create an empty **dm\_concat\_example\_1** using AIOps studio as shown in the below screenshot.

![Empty pipeline](/files/-MfePwY94A1JsyxP_Esl)

Step 2: Add the following pipeline code/commands into the above-created pipeline as shown in the below screenshot:

You can copy the below code into your pipeline and execute that in your environment.

\
*`###### Pipeline created two datasets simulating two alerting systems (PRTG, vrOPS) and`*\
*`###### generates data and saves into dataset.`*\
*`###### Pipeline uses dm:concat function to concatenate two datasets that are stored in RDA`*\
*`##### Pipeline also uses, dm:save and dm:savedlist`* \

*`####### PRTG Alerts Sections`* \
*`@dm:empty`* \
