Import Data to Project
There are many ways to bring your data into your project, in this section we'll cover using from the following data sources:
Using virtualized data
Note: The lab instructions below assume you have your project already available. If not, follow the instructions in the pre-work section to create a project.
Using Virtualized Data
For this section we'll explore the data that is available from the virtualized views that have been created in Data Virtualization. This data may come from various data sources or tables within a single source, but will appear as a single data asset. We will add this data to a project so that it can be used.
Assign the data to your project
From the upper-left (☰) hamburger menu, click on Collect -> Data virtualization, you'll be brought to the My virtualized data section. Here you should see the data you can access (or that the administrator has assigned to you). Select the checkbox next to the tables you want to use in your project and click the Assign button to start importing them into your project.
Note: The names of the tables to select may vary based on names chosen during data virtualization. The default names to select are: BILLING, PRODUCTS, CUSTOMERS, BILLINGPRODUCTS AND BILLINGPRODUCTSCUSTOMER
In the 'Assign virtual objects' screen, choose the project where you want to assign the data. If there is a Submit to catalog checkbox on the top right, unselect it and finally click the Assign button to add the data to your project.
In the pop up panel, you will receive a confirmation that the objects have been assigned to your project. Click the Go to project button.
In the project page, clicking on the Assets tab will show the virtualized tables and joined tables that are now in your project.
Do not go to the next section until you see the data assets in your project.
