RudderStack provides the following options to map your warehouse columns to specific destination fields while importing the data:

• Map with Visualizer (Refer to the Visual Data Mapper guide for the list of the supported destinations.)
• Map with JSON

This guide lists the JSON mapping settings required to import and sync data from your warehouse table to the specified destination.
