Modeler Prepare
Use Modeler Prepare to shape data before you publish it. You manage columns, create prepared sources, group sources for publishing, and refresh data on demand or on a schedule.
On this page you can perform these actions:
- Scripted Sources
Use ETL scripts for complex data manipulation. Scripts support conditional logic, loops, and custom functions for advanced scenarios.
- Manage Columns and Properties
Use Manage columns and properties to change column names, data types, widths, and null handling. You can lock a data type or specify custom date parsing.
- Create Prepared Sources
Use Create prepared sources to build new views of raw or scripted sources. Prepared sources use drag‑and‑drop transforms that do not change the original data.
- Publishing Groups
Use Publishing groups to organize sources into separate publishing cycles. Publishing groups support large data collections and incremental updates.
- Refresh and Scheduling
Use Refresh and scheduling to refresh data manually or schedule automatic updates. Prepared sources support full and incremental refresh.
