File Upload Data Asset Source
Create a Data Asset Through File Upload
File Format
Choose the appropriate format for uploading sample data, supporting CSV, JSON, TEXT, Parquet, or ORC file types.
For CSV files, you can additionally specify a delimiter.
Upload
Once you’ve selected the desired file format and specified any required settings such as delimiter, use this option to upload the sample data.
Header Included
For CSV file formats, indicate whether the uploaded file includes a header row.
Enabling this option assists in proper data alignment by recognizing the header row as column labels.
This ensures accurate representation and manipulation of your data within the system.
Maximum Records to Fetch
Specify the maximum number of sample records you wish to keep in the data asset.
This feature helps in obtaining a manageable subset of data for testing and design purposes, facilitating efficient application development while optimizing resource usage.
Sampling Method
This option offers flexibility in how you retrieve sample data.
Following are the ways:
Top N: Retrieve the specified number of initial records from the data source based on the specified maximum number of rows. This is particularly useful when you want to analyze or design with a specific set of initial records.
Random Sample: Fetch a random subset of records from your sample data, ensuring a diverse representation. This approach is valuable when you require a more comprehensive assessment of your data’s characteristics.
