Data Interface is used to configure activities which can be overridden at execution time of the process flows. Using this interface, you can attach an event with the process flow and the activities that will be overridden at execution time of the process flows.
Data interface is used to process data of different formats using different layout and mapping. In this case, you don't have to create a different process flow for data of each format. You can use only one process flow and create data interfaces for each format of data. In data interface, you can choose the event, which will trigger the process flow, and the activities that will be overridden during the execution of the process flow when it is triggered by a particular event.
