Metrics update: March 21, 2022

Updated metrics tables/reports have arrived on March 21, 2022! Some reports may take 24-48 hours to reflect the new data after deployment due to sync timing.

The data dictionary has been updated to reflect the latest updates as well.

New Table - For both multi-tenant and single-tenant:

Events - Catalog Resources Pages Activity By Day

A fact table containing catalog pages activities such as views, edits and suggestions submitted by agents aggregated by UTC-based calendar day

Columns:

date: UTC-based calendar date
owner: the org where the catalog asset resides
agentid: the agentid who took an action (either viewed, edited or submitted a suggestion for the asset)
resourcetype: the catalog asset type
resource: the catalog asset's unique ID. This represents the unique IRI value of the asset
resourcename: the name of the catalog asset
views: count of views done by the agent on the asset
edits: count of edits saved by the agent on the asset
suggestions_submitted: count of suggestions submitted by the agent for that asset

Note: This metric is meant to replace the Events - Metadata Asset Activity By Day table, which provided metrics on metadata pages in data.world and was sunset in September 2021. We are going to let Events - Metadata Asset Activity By Day stay in the metrics dataset instead of completely removing it in case you are still using it, but you will not see any events in it beginning September 2021 (or before depending on their activity on those pages).

What can be done with this new metric?

Below are some examples of analysis you can do with this metric:

You can see the activity for a particular type of resource
SELECT *
FROM catalog-resources-pages-activity-by-day
WHERE resourcetype = ‘Business term’
ORDER BY date DESC;
You can see total edits, views and suggestions that were submitted by day for a specific resource
SELECT date, SUM(views), SUM(edits), SUM(suggestions_submitted)
FROM catalog-resources-pages-activity-by-day
WHERE RESOURCENAME = '<insert the resourceid column value here>’
GROUP BY date
ORDER BY date desc;
You can see total activity summary for all catalog resource pages by date and org
SELECT date, org, SUM(views), SUM(edits), SUM(suggestions_submitted)
FROM catalog-resources-pages-activity-by-day
GROUP BY date, org
ORDER BY date desc;

As always, let us know if you have any questions or feedback!

Metrics update: December 17, 2021

Updated metrics tables/reports have arrived on December 17, 2021! Some reports may take 24-48 hours to reflect the new data after deploy due to sync timing.

Data dictionary has been updated to reflect the latest updates as well.

Updated Tables - For both multi-tenant and single-tenant

Events - Metadata Assets Activity - By Day: Column name changed from “resourceid” to “resource” - this change was applied in order to bring this table into conformity with the dimension naming convention used elsewhere in the metrics dataset.
Membership - All Time List: Added “current_member” column (boolean; TRUE: account is currently provisioned; FALSE: account is currently de-provisioned). Added “last_date_active” column (the date of the user’s most recent activity in data.world).
Tops - Requests: Name of table/report changed to “Tops - Most Requested Resources.” Added “resourcetype” column (dimension; indicates whether the requested resource was a dataset, group, etc.).

Reset lineage viewport

Data artifact lineage improvements continue as we introduce the ability to reset the lineage component viewport. For customers with large, complex data artifact lineage, we've heard that it can be difficult to reorient once you start exploring the visualization. With this new "Reset view" button, the view and zoom are immediately reset to the starting orientation.

Advanced Search Improvements

Use the "None of the following" option in the Advanced Search Builder to exclude search results that match a specific value. This feature works with the logical NOT operator in our Advanced Search Syntax.

Expand and collapse controls are now available for the search filters sidebar to help you quickly locate available filtering options.

Coming Soon: Organization Profile Updates

The Organization Profile Page is getting a facelift this week to offer more intuitive navigation, stronger support for custom catalog types, and richer discovery features.

Browse the Overview tab for quick links to different resource categories in your catalog. The quick link tiles will take you to a filtered presentation of the new Resources tab. This view operates much like the main search page with support for facets and advanced search syntax, all scoped to your organization's resources.

Searching for open data? Community organizations will now also have these search and filter options available on the new Resources tab.
