How to use the Database tab to inspect data

The Database tab displays the data contained in an Atoti instance. It is useful when investigating aggregation issues caused by underlying data quality problems, such as missing data.

  • Inspect the actual data loaded into the cube
  • Identify inconsistencies that may affect analytical results.

Data is organized in three levels:

  1. Branch
  2. Table
  3. Table columns

How to select a branch

Use the branch selector located at the top left of the screen to choose the relevant data version. Each branch represents a specific version of the data. For more information about branches, refer to the Atoti data versioning documentation.

How to select a table

The list of tables is displayed on the left of the screen.

  • Search for tables using the search box at the top of the list.
  • Click any table to view the data it contains in the selected branch.

How to customize the table view

Use the following features to modify the data displayed:

  • Show or hide columns: Toggle column visibility using the column selector.

  • Resize columns: Drag column edges to adjust their width.

  • Paginate results:

    • Configure the number of rows displayed per page.
    • Navigate between pages using the pagination controls
  • Filter values: Click the filter icon in the column header to open the options:
