Configure Data Profiling

Default Configuration

By default, Data Profiling is set to the NO_SAVE option. This means Dataedo Desktop users will be able to profile tables but won't be able to save and share data.

Data Profiling can be managed by updating the correct row in the configuration table from the Dataedo repository database.

How to Change the Configuration

To change the Data Profiling configuration, you need to connect to the repository and change the value of DATA_PROFILING in the dbo.configuration table.

There are 3 values (states) which you can set:

• ENABLED - Data Profiling will be available in both Desktop and Web. In Desktop, you will be able to run profiling, save results to the repository, and clear the data.
• NO_SAVE - Data Profiling will be available only in Desktop. You will be able to run profiling and clear previously saved data. Saving new data will be disabled.
• DISABLED - Data Profiling will be disabled in both Desktop and Web.

Other Limitations

Please note that the availability of Data Profiling is also subject to the licensing system (Data Profiling must be part of your license).
