Consuming in the data marketplace

All the data products that you have access to via spaces are visible in your Catalog view. To make the certified and trusted data products available more widely to your organization, they need to be activated on the Data marketplace.

Activating a data product to the data marketplace

1. From the launcher menu , select Data products.
2. Click the data product you want to activate.
3. Click Activate.

   The Activate data product dialog opens

   

4. From the Sharing policy drop-down list, select a managed space in which the data product will be published.

   Activating a data product on the data marketplace actually publishes a copy in the managed space that you select during activation. So all users that are part of this managed space will see the activated data product both in their catalog and in the data marketplace.

5. In the Names, Description, and Tags fields, review or edit the information entered during the data product creation.

6. After looking at the Preview, click Activate.

The data product has now an active version on the data marketplace. As the owner of the data product, you will see in your catalog both the main data product, and the published copy.

When browsing the data marketplace, you will see the main data products in their original spaces.

Deactivating a data product

When you want to update a data product or if it's no longer relevant, you need to deactivate it.

1. From Data products, click the data product to deactivate.
2. Click the three dots menu icon on the top right of the data product.
3. Click Deactivate.
4. In the confirmation dialog that opens, click Deactivate again.

Even if your data product has been used as source for one or more analytics applications, you can safely deactivate it and the application will still work.

Updating an active data product

If you want to make changes to an active data product, you have to do so on the original data product.

How your changes affect the activated copy in the data marketplace depends on your access to the managed space where the data product is activated:

• If you can edit the original data product and you have access to the managed space with publish permission: any modifications to the original data product are immediately reflected in the activated copy in the managed space.

• If you can edit the original data product but you do not have publish permission in the managed space: modifications are applied only to the original data product and do not impact the activated copy in the managed space.

You do not need to deactivate the data product before applying modifications. Any analytics application based on the previous version of the data product will still work, but you will have to create a new application in order to benefit from the latest data.

Consuming a data product

When you have found a data product with the data that corresponds to your needs, you can directly create an analytics application from it or consume it through APIs.

For more information about the API endpoints, see Consuming data products through APIs.

To create an analytics app:

1. Öppna den valda dataprodukten från datamarknadsplatsen.
2. Klicka på Använd i > Applikation uppe till höger.

   Dialogen Skapa en ny applikation öppnas.

   Från listrutan Använd i kan du även använda dataprodukten i ett tabellrecept, dataflöde, skript eller ett ML-experiment.

3. I det motsvarande fältet anger du ett namn för applikationen.

4. Välj i den motsvarande rullgardinslistan i vilket utrymme du vill spara appen.

5. Lägg till en beskrivning för att dokumentera syftet med appen.

6. Lägg till några taggar i appen för att göra den lättare att hitta.

7. Klicka på Nästa. Du omdirigeras till listan över datauppsättningar som ingår i dataprodukten. De är valda som standard.

8. Vid behov, avmarkera datauppsättningarnas kryssrutor för att exkludera dem, och klicka på Nästa.

9. Granska sammanfattningen av valda data. Du kan klicka på varje enskild datauppsättning för att få en förhandsgranskning av de fält som den innehåller.

10. Du kan även markera kryssrutan Öppna applikation för att visa appen direkt när den har skapats.

11. Klicka på Ladda till applikation.

The analytics application has been created and is empty for now. You can start adding sheets and work on the application. For more information, see Skapa analyser och visualisera data.
