The Warehouse screen shows your tables, transformations and groups as a tree on the left and a main area on the right. Use this page to find your way around the screen, the tree and its toolbar.
The left panel is the tree, headed Warehouse. Drag the edge between the panels to resize it: the tree is at least 350 pixels wide, opens at 474 pixels by default, and never takes more than half your window. Your width is remembered in this browser. To hide the tree, click Hide panel or press Alt+1; while it is hidden, a Show panel button appears in the header on the right.
The header on the right has four buttons:
In the sidebar, Warehouse sits in the data group, next to Lake, WriteBack and Lineage. It appears with View Warehouse Objects or Add/Modify Warehouse Objects, but the tree loads only with View Warehouse Objects.
Each object opens in a floating popup with Refresh, Minimize, Maximize (or Restore) and Close buttons. The popup limit is explained on Warehouse.
The tree comes from the server for your account and groups your objects:
Placeholder rows collect objects that are missing a group:
When you scroll, the header of the group you are inside stays pinned at the top. While the tree loads, it shows Loading menu.
Creating an object, deploying a table or deleting an object updates the tree as you work; to reload the list from the server at any time, click Refresh in the toolbar. Switching views and building your own are covered in Saved views and configurations.
The toolbar sits above the tree. Its buttons are greyed out until the tree has loaded.
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| New | Opens the add menu. Its tooltip reads Add new. |
| Refresh | Reloads the tree from the server and shows the message Data refreshed. |
| Delete | Deletes the selected rows. It stays greyed out until you select something. See Delete Warehouse objects. |
| Batch Select | Shows checkboxes on the rows, so you can select several at once. |
| Batch Edit | Opens Batch edit for the Warehouse. |
| Expand and collapse | Opens or closes every group in the tree. |
| Saved views | One button per saved view. The current view is pressed. |
| Configure | Opens Create Configuration, where you build your own view. |
The New menu lists Semantic source and Logical model, then Transformation, Dimension, Fact, Dictionary, Static and View. Each item opens its creation popup. Create Warehouse objects lists every entry point.
Type in the Search warehouse... box to find any object by name; results are grouped by type, and clicking one jumps to it in the tree. Filter narrows the tree by Type, Model, Source or Transforms. Search and filter the tree covers the result limit, every filter category and how filters combine.
Saved views are the tree layouts you switch between. Click Configure in the toolbar to build your own: name it, then drag levels such as Logical Model and Table Type into the order you want, and save it as a bookmark. Saved views and configurations walks through loading, updating and deleting views.
Saved views belong to your own user account. Colleagues cannot see them.
Right-click a row for its actions: Add Transformation, Duplicate Transformation, Copy Name, Deploy on an undeployed table, or Delete. Right-click menus describes the menu on each kind of row and when an action is available.
Double-click a table or transformation row, or press Enter on it, to open its editor. A single click only selects the row; click the chevron on a row to open or close its children.
The shortcuts below work while a tree row has focus. On a Mac, ⌘ replaces Ctrl.
| Action | Shortcut |
|---|---|
| Edit | Enter |
| Add New on a group row, or Add Transformation on a table row | Alt+N |
| Duplicate Transformation | Alt+C |
| Batch Edit (on a group row) | Ctrl+Shift+E |
| Copy Name | Ctrl+Shift+C |
| Delete | Ctrl+Backspace |
The page address records which view you are on, as view=dashboard, view=diagram, view=workflow or view=addNew. Open such a link to land on that view. When you open the Warehouse without one, the view you used last opens; Add New is never the remembered one, so the next visit returns to your last Dashboard, Relationship Diagram or Workflow Diagram.
A link to a table opens its popup: /. The popup opens a moment after the page loads, and the four parameters are removed from the address. In tableType, use the object's kind, such as dimension, fact, dictionary, static, view or transformation.
The buttons and menu items stay visible without the permission. When you use one, the action is refused, and the message names the permission you need. The full list and the presets are on Warehouse permissions and row-level security.
The table is not deployed yet. Deploy it from its right-click menu, or open the table and deploy it from its popup. Deploy, run, truncate and monitor tables covers what deploying does.
The transformation is finalized, but its schedule is off, so workflow runs skip it. Turn the schedule on when you want it to run. See Build, test and finalize a transformation.
