Catalog Data Object Properties

The following lists the data objects that a catalog may contain with their child objects in alphabetical order:

  • Category
  • Detail
  • Group
• Data Source
• Data Source Security
• Formula

  • JSON/Elasticsearch Schema
• MongoDB Connection
  • MongoDB Database
    • MongoDB Collection
      • MongoDB Element
• Parameter
• Query
  • Query Column

• Table/View/Synonym
  • Table/View/Synonym Column
• User-Defined Data Source (UDS)

• The default ones are the recommended values to be used, so it is better not to randomly modify other properties except the two properties - Name and Description. Make changes only after you are sure of the meaning of each property.
• Make sure that the precision set in the catalog is same as that in the database. This is to avoid inconsistency between the database data values and the displayed report result.
