What's new?

Today, we're introducing the first iteration of our new dataset configuration wizard. From now on, this wizard will be a part of your dataset creation process. 

Why?

In the past, when you uploaded or synced your data, Abacum automatically inferred the “type” of each column in your dataset. The new Dataset Configuration Wizard gives you more control during the dataset creation process, enabling you to review the data for accuracy before your dataset is created.

How it works?

• Select the format and type of your data (dates, numbers, text)
• Change columns from a number to a text type (so you can more easily use it as a dimension)
• Ignore columns when preparing your data, including bulk ignore
• Bring in a new column/columns to an existing dataset
