This information is displayed:

Details

To view an object’s metadata in the Data Catalog, click the drill-down icon.

Name

The name of the object as it was specified upon upload. Object names are unique within a tenant and must be different than any other object’s name, including those located in another library. Objects of type BOD represent nouns; the name of the noun is displayed as the object name.

Note: The object named “AnyDocument” is used to illustrate the structure of the import/export file and cannot be deleted.

Type

The type of the object.

Subtype

The subtype of the object. Objects of type DSV and JSON are assigned a subtype at the time that the custom object is imported.

Depending on what the separator character in the schema is, DSV objects are assigned one of these subtypes:

CSV - comma-separated values
TSV - tab-separated values
PSV - pipe-separated values
Other

For JSON objects, if the schema specifies that the object is using streaming JSON, the subtype is “Newline-delimited”. For objects that do not use streaming JSON, the subtype is “Conventional".

Library

The library to which the object schema belongs, for example InforOAGIS. All custom objects are considered part of the “Custom” library.

Last Updated by
