Using data quality items from the referenced project
When one project references another, all items in the referenced project are available for reuse from the main project.
For example, you can drop a business rule or a pattern defined in a
reference project directly to an analysis you create in the current project without
going into the process of creating the item from scratch.
Information noteTip: From the main project, before
selecting new columns from a reference project in the Column
Selection dialog box, expand those new columns in the reference
project.
When you import analyses from a reference project into a local project or a remote project which does not connect to the same reference project, you will have problems opening the analyses and running them. This is because only analyses are imported without their items. You must first create the connection to the same reference project before being able to correctly use the analyses in the current project.
Before you begin
- You have read-writing authorization for the main and referenced projects. For further information, see Talend Administration Center User Guide.
- You have opened the main project in the Studio.
Procedure
-
From the main project, open the analysis on which you want to use an item from
the reference project.
In this example, you want to use a business rule age_18 defined in the reference project on a table analysis from the main project.
Results
The table is analyzed against the business rule from the reference project and results are displayed in the editor.
