ONE Desktop: Projects Part 1️⃣Best Practice

Happy Wednesday community! The Power of Projects: A PrimerBefore you dive into the exciting world of data transformations and analysis, let's lay down the foundation: projects. Think of projects as your organized toolkit – a collection of plans, components, data files, workflows, and custom scripts, all neatly arranged within logical folders. These projects live within a workspace folder, ensuring everything is in its right place. Structuring ProjectsImagine the harmony of a well-structured project. Here's how it can look:A Glance at a Well-Structured Projectbat: Home to batch or shell scripts for triggering plans. bin: Houses DQC plans for data cleansing and deduplication. components: Stores the goldmine of component plans for main plans. data: Nurtures your data directories. ext: Contains external lookup files and replacement lists. bat: Serves batch or shell scripts to trigger plans for lookup files. build: Holds DQC plans for crafting lookups. lkp: The indexed version of looku

Greyed out fields appear to change with Enrichment... but they do not (thankfully)!

Howdy Ataccama Community:If you are needing to know how to grey out fields for edit, please navigate here: Grey out fields for edit | Community (ataccama.com)Problem: After greying out fields, I noticed that fields an Enrichment acts on appeared to change in the User Interface, even if greyed out.Solution: Working with our Ataccama professional support person, it was found that although the fields change in the UI, when saved the greyed out fields are not updated in the record being edited. This is great news, as the purpose (at least for our team) of greying out a field, is so that it cannot be changed once created.So that’s it, probably the shortest post I will put on here, but an important one for record reliability.Thank you,Jason R.S.

Errors in LKP file with multiple columns

Howdy Ataccama community:Today I am creating an LKP file with multiple columns for the first time, and came across a couple rookie mistakes I was making, and wanted to share the warnings and errors I am getting.The file I am making is a simple mapping file going from the key to a field “PH1”Rookie mistake number 1: The file being used to make the lkp is a csv, and I made the assumption the Text File Reader in the lookup builder plan would recognize this from the file type. It did not, it had the separation of columns as \t (tab) still. This created the warning [EHS:SHORT_LINE][step:Text File Reader][line:1] with a row for ever row in my file. To fix this one was simply setting the “Line Separator” field in the Text File Reader to a comma instead of \t.Rookie mistake number 2: After correcting my first mistake, I was now getting the following error “There were logged 1 runtime warnings and 1 runtime errors.” With the details being “Error sending response” with no info on why. I got frus

Ataccama source monitoring

At our site we have Ataccama on premise and several sources from different data systems. It happened a couple of times that profiling on one of the sources was no longer possible and that we found that out more than a week later. After which it was difficult to track back why this happened.We do have monitoring of all kinds of Ataccama components with Prometheus. But that didn't seem to detect these issues. I was looking for a way to monitor profiling functionality.So what I came up with was a monitoring project that profiles a small table from each source, every hour.Since you can schedule a monitoring project every hour at least, and since you can add notification in case of failure, this gives us warning at most near 1 hours after something breaks.Just adding a catalog item of a table to the MP turned out not to be sufficient though. Because when the monitoring project ran, it did only a structure check, not a profile. To get it profiling, it needed an anomaly check.When you do an a

Grey out fields for edit

Howdy Ataccama Community!Have you ever wanted to have a user see a field while in edit mode, but want to have it greyed out for editing? This problem arose while we were working with a Primary Key that needed to be seen in edit mode but never edited. The only way for a field to be seen in edit mode, is to set it to Modify in the permissions, but we did not want the user to modify. Problem: Show all fields in Edit mode, but only have certain ones editable.Solution: Begin by deploying your project and populating any tables with initial loads as needed. Next go back to OneDesktop IDE, and open the table you are wanting to make some fields non-editable. For the fields you want to make non-editable select Generated. While this sounds like it will auto generate the field, I assure you it does not.Now generate and deploy your project again (remember to generate at the App Configuration level).Note: You might need to stop and restart services for the change to take effect. While I was testing

Mastering Anomaly Detection in Your Data Catalog📔Best Practice

Hi Community! Yesterday we took a step into Anomaly Detection, what is it, and how to use it. If you’ve missed that post, go check it out here:Today, we will have a short summary of what we covered yesterday with a focus on the Data Catalog.Spotting the Unseen: Anomaly Detection DemystifiedAnomaly Detection is like having a data detective, tirelessly examining your catalog items for any unusual activities. It operates on two levels:Catalog Item Level: Analyzing key metrics like the number of records and summary statistics. Attribute Level: Delving into value distribution, standard deviation, numeric sum, and more.Whenever a metric's value behaves abnormally, it raises a flag. But wait, there's more! Our AI-driven Anomaly Detection system, fondly known as "ONE," is a quick learner. With every confirmed or dismissed alert, it refines its understanding of your data's unique quirks. This means more precise anomaly detection with each profiling session.Customizing Anomaly Detection to Fit

How to organize assets in ONE web app: adding columns and filters in Business Glossary

Adding more details to a list view and providing additional filtering options can help business users in their daily tasks as you scale Data Governance across multiple teams, geographies, or business functions.In this article we’ll customize the Business Glossary to show additional term attributes as columns in the list view and to enable filtering by those attributes. This approach generally works across the Ataccama ONE Web app, so you can use this article as a guide to customize other pages, for example Rules, Catalog Items, or Monitoring Projects.You don’t have to be a developer to follow this guide. If you come across any concepts you’re not familiar with, have a look at our documentation. Adding columns First, navigate to the Business Glossary’s Terms list. In the top right, find the 3-dot menu which features the option to Edit page. In the side bar that opens up, go to the Layout tab. You’ll see the JSON that describes how the objects are shown on this page when the web app load

Screen flashing when user tries to log in

Howdy all:Earlier this week we started having an issue when end users were trying to log in to our DEV environment. When they would navigate to the URL, their browser would show Ataccama splash screen, then instantly (and continuously) refresh. When asked to try to ping the URL via the command line, the correct IP was being hit, and there was a low latency reply from the server.Note: This issue occurred using Azure AD.Problem: User navigates to a known good URL for Ataccama RDM Web Application. When the application is reached, Ataccama splash screen shows in browser, then browser starts refreshing every 2 to 3 seconds.Solution: It was found that someone accidentally change the setting in KeyCloak called “First Login Flow.” This should have been set to “First Broker Login,” but was switched to “Browser.” Switching back to “First Broker Login” fixed the issue for our users.I am unsure if this is specific to Azure AD, but it is worth a try, if you are seeing a similar issue.Thank you,Jaso

Which steps do you take to add a DQ rule?

I’d like to check if I am listing the correct steps to add a DQ rule in an existing Monitoring Project, and the order in which to take them. I am quite new to Ataccama so please excuse my ignorance. Can anyone please confirm or adjust them? Many thanks in advance! How to add a DQ ruleCheck if the rule you want to apply, already exists out of the box. For example, if you want to say a certain field cannot be empty, you can apply the predefined rule: String completeness. Other standard checks include validation of email addresses, and URLs. Go to Monitoring Project, tab Configuration & Results Choose the file you want to check (either a VCI or a Parquet File – the latter starts with PF). Choose which attribute you want to check In the 5th column, add: applied DQ checks Doublecheck whether the scoring of the rule is correct (some of the standard rules have a scoring of 0 – you might want to change that) In the upper right hand corner, choose “Publish” Run monitoring. This will take so
