Working with Source Datasets

You can add new data sources from cloud storage locations, database connections, and your local network.

Depending on your user role and permissions, you can add new data sources by:

  • Adding a database table or view.
  • Adding a source, such as a CSV file or Delta Lake, from cloud storage connection.
  • Uploading a local source file. This option is typically used for data product flow testing, and not for production data products.

Before you add source datasets, see Requirements for Source Datasets.

The information in Menu menu > Sources provides details for each source, including:

  • Name
  • Source location (connection or file upload)
  • Number of columns and rows
  • Last refresh status and date

You can Refresh refresh or Reupload Reuploada source, or choose to Delete trash icon sources that are no longer in use by your data products. Learn more about deleting sources.

You can also add sources as input to your data products.
