Defining Column Properties

Modeler Prepare allows data modelers to transform and clean their data sources directly in Birst. This module is designed to help with data sources you imported directly into Birst. By creating preparation pipelines or scripts to create an enhanced view of these data sources, users are effectively making adaptive sources for reporting purposes.

For Live Access use cases, data sources will usually come report ready. Users cannot modify these sources in the Prep module. However, users may still want to adjust how specific columns or sources are interpreted within Birst. For Live Access use cases, users can change these properties in Modeler Relate. This allows users to adjust their sources and join them all in one place.

Column properties can be modified as a one-off adjustment or a bulk change. These modifications can be made to imported data, Live Access data, and ADR sources.
