Copying / saving Checks and metrics

Maryam

Hello,

Is there any way to copy checks and metrics from one data set to another?
Is it possible to save a custom code check as a plugin ?

Hi,

Using the Python API you can copy the metrics/checks metadata from a dataset:

import dataiku

client=dataiku.api_client()

project=client.get_project(dataiku.default_project_key())

sourcedataset=project.get_dataset("<source dataset name>")

wantedmetrics=sourcedataset.get_settings().get_raw()["metrics"]

wantedchecks=sourcedataset.get_settings().get_raw()["metricsChecks"]

And apply them to any other dataset in the node. For example, to apply them to a dataset in the same project:

targetdataset=project.get_dataset("<target dataset name>")

datasetsettings=targetdataset.get_definition()

datasetsettings["metrics"]=wantedmetrics

datasetsettings["metricsChecks"]=wantedchecks

targetdataset.set_definition(datasetsettings)

Regadring plugins, in the plugin components you can see two components to develop metrics and checks probes:

Thank you Miguel !

Hello, just as an update here,

Now with data quality rules replacing checks on datasets, as of version 12.6.6, you can easily copy and paste DQ rules from one dataset from another, and in 13.1.0, you can create data quality templates for even more streamlined reuse.

Let me know if you have questions or other feebdack!
