Transform

Applies a schema to the data.

  • Click to edit node. When a node is clicked, the property panel to the right will be editable.
  • Right-click to rename a node, remove (delete) or duplicate a node. A duplicated node will copy the details of the node, including any defined properties in the original node. The duplicated node will have a -n numeric tag in the name.

Schemas Require a Timestamp Partition Column

Schemas require a timestamp data column. In addition, the table should be partitioned and sorted (interval, historic and/or real-time) by this timestamp column. This can be configured as part of the set up wizard, or with the essential and advanced properties of a schema.
