Exploring a Data Source
To get details on a data source, you choose it from a list of data sources that are associated with or available to your workspace.
Start with an open workspace.
- Procedure
- On the
Data Sources tab, select the dataset to explore by clicking its name.
The details page of the dataset is displayed.Note: The data view depends on the data source (DB, Hadoop, Hive, or TDV). For example, if you are working with Hadoop, the details page is displayed as rows of comma-separated values. If you are working with PostgreSQL, you see a view similar to the one shown in the following image.
Here is a sample dataset that has been associated with the workspace:
Any TIBCO Data Science - Team Studio user with permission to view this dataset can use these commands:
- Previewing Data in a Workspace Table
- Visualizing Data in a Workspace Table

- Adding a Note: Select this option to add a note to a dataset in a schema. If you are working from the workspace, you can support your note with attachments from the desktop, datasets, or work files. If you are working from the data source browser, you can support your note only with attachments from the desktop.
