Hi pritam003,

You can achieve this with a Scenario that would:

* build your dataset,

* compute its metrics (that should include the number of records),

* retrieve the metric of interest and save it as a Scenario variable (this would likely be done by code using the metrics API: https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/python-api/metrics.html,

* communicate that metric using a Reporter from that Scenario.

Hope this helps!

Best,

Much easier to do setting a scenario variable that retrieves the value of the metric. Read this post and the one it links to:

Here is the documentation:
