Restore a Field

Restoring a field changes its status back to Active, making it available for profiling and scanning operations again. Only fields with Excluded status can be restored.

Tip

To change a Masked field back to Active, use the Unmask operation instead.

What Happens When a Field is Restored

When you restore a field:

• Active Status: The field is restored to Active status
• Field Profiling: The field becomes eligible for profiling again (but may be flagged Missing if not found in the source)
• Quality Checks: Previously archived checks remain archived and must be restored separately

Restore a Field

1. Navigate to the container's field listing.
2. Click the Excluded tab to view excluded fields.
3. Locate the field you want to restore.
4. Click the vertical ellipsis menu (⋮) on the field row.

1. Click the Restore option from the menu.

1. Confirm the restoration in the dialog.

Note

Restoring a field makes it active for future profiling and scanning. However, previously archived quality checks are not automatically restored. You will need to manually re-enable any checks that were archived during exclusion.

Info

Missing fields cannot be manually restored. They are automatically restored to Active when the field reappears in the source data during a subsequent profile operation.

Bulk Restore

You can restore multiple fields at once from the container's field listing.

1. Navigate to the container's field listing.
2. Click the Excluded tab to view excluded fields.
3. Select the fields you want to restore by clicking the checkbox on each field row.

1. Click the Restore action in the selection toolbar that appears at the top.

1. Confirm the bulk restoration in the dialog.

Note

Restoring fields in bulk follows the same rules as single restore: archived quality checks are not automatically restored, and computed fields can only be restored if all their source fields are active.
