Export Operation Introduction

The Export Operation lets you capture data-quality artifacts that the platform produces (anomalies, quality checks, and field profiles) and write them to your linked enrichment destination. Once the export finishes, the captured data is available as a container in that datastore, ready for BI tools, scheduled reports, governance dashboards, or audit trails.

What you can export

Each Export Operation captures one asset type per run:

  • Anomalies: every anomaly the platform has identified on the selected containers (active, acknowledged, resolved, invalid, duplicate, discarded).
  • Quality Checks: every quality check defined on the selected containers, including the rule type, scope, current pass/fail status, and the first and last times the check produced a result.
  • Field Profiles: the most recent statistical profile of each field on the selected containers (completeness, distinct values, summary statistics, histograms, and more).

Why this matters

The Export Operation turns the platform's in-memory quality state into durable, queryable data:

  • Operational reporting: connect BI tools (Looker, Power BI, Tableau) to the exported outputs instead of polling the API.
  • Governance and audit: schedule recurring exports to keep a time-series record of quality artifacts in your data warehouse.
  • Cross-system analysis: combine exported quality data with your business data to correlate anomalies with downstream impact.

How it runs

Triggering an Export Operation enqueues the work; the platform processes it asynchronously and writes the result to the enrichment destination. Qualytics then adds the output to the destination's container list, without a Sync, and profiles it when Profile written tables in the enrichment destination is on for the writing datastore. You can also schedule recurring exports in any IANA timezone.
