Edit Anomalies

Anomalies support two editable properties: description and tags. The description allows you to add business context or investigation findings, while tags help you categorize and organize anomalies for downstream workflows.

Note

  • Individual anomalies can have both their description and tags edited
  • When editing multiple anomalies in bulk, only tags can be modified
  • Only users with the Editor role (or higher) on the respective datastore can make edits to non-archived anomalies

Edit Description

The anomaly description provides a detailed explanation of the data quality issue. You can edit it to add additional context, clarify the business impact, or document investigation findings.

For detailed instructions on editing the description, see the Description section in the Anomaly Insights documentation.

Edit Tags (Bulk Edit)

Step 1: Hover over the anomaly (whether Active or Acknowledged) and click on the checkbox.

You can edit multiple anomalies by selecting the checkboxes next to each anomaly to choose multiple anomalies at once.
