Actions on Container

Users can perform various operations on containers to manage datasets effectively. The actions are divided into three main sections: Settings, Add, and Run. Each section contains specific options to perform different tasks.

action

Settings

The Settings button allows users to configure the container. By clicking on the Settings button, users can access the following options:

settings

No Options Description
1. Settings Configure incremental strategy, partitioning fields, and exclude specific fields from analysis.
2. Score Score allowing you to adjust the decay period and factor weights for metrics like completeness, accuracy, and consistency.
Note: To understand how each score metric works in detail (completeness, accuracy, consistency, decay period, and weights), please refer to the Quality Score Page.
Score settings modified here apply only to this container and do not affect any other container in the datastore.
3. Observability Enables or disables tracking for data volume and freshness.
Volume Tracking: Monitors daily volume metrics to identify trends and detect anomalies over time.
Freshness Tracking: Records the last update timestamp to ensure data timeliness and detect pipeline delays.
4. Migrate Migrate authored quality checks from one container to another (even across datastores) to quickly reuse, standardize, and avoid recreating rules.
5. Export Export quality checks, field profiles, and anomalies to an enrichment datastore for further action or analysis.
6. Materialize Captures snapshots of data from a source datastore and exports it to an enrichment datastore for faster access and analysis.
7. Delete Delete the selected container from the system.

Add

The Add button allows users to add checks or computed fields. By clicking on the Add button, users can access the following options:

add

No. Options Description
1. Checks Checks allow you to add new checks or validation rules for the container.
Note: To learn how to add checks, refer to the Check Templates documentation.
2. Computed Field Allows you to add a computed field.
Note: To learn how to create a computed field, refer to the Computed Field Guide.

Run

The Run button provides options to execute operations on datasets, such as profiling, scanning, and external scans. By clicking on the Run button, users can access the following options:

run

No. Options Description
1. Profile Profile allows you to run a profiling operation to analyze the data structure, gather metadata, set thresholds, and define record limits for comprehensive dataset profiling.
Note: For profile operation, please refer to the Profile Operation documentation.
2. Scan Scan allows you to perform data quality checks, configure scan strategies, and detect anomalies in the dataset.
Note: For scan operation, please refer to the Scan Operation documentation.
3. External Scan External Scan allows you to upload a file and validate its data against predefined checks in the selected table.
Note: For external scan, please refer to the External Scan documentation.
