DATASET HISTORY¶
Purpose: The Dataset Upload History page helps a data engineer or admin: - Track and monitor the status of dataset uploads - See at a glance which uploads succeeded, failed, or are still processing - Identify who uploaded a dataset and when - Drill into individual upload details for troubleshooting
Accessing Dataset History¶
Navigation: ETL Management → Dataset History
Dataset Upload History Page¶
Summary Cards¶
Five stat cards give a quick health check of all dataset uploads:
| Metric | Count |
|---|---|
| Total Uploads | 1 |
| Successful | 1 |
| Failed | 0 |
| Processing | 0 |
| Cancelled | 0 |
Toolbar¶
- A search bar to look up uploads by dataset, upload ID, or uploader
- A status filter dropdown (currently "All Statuses")
- A date filter dropdown (currently "Upload Date")
- A sort/filter icon
- A Refresh button to reload upload data
Uploads Table¶
The main table lists individual dataset uploads with these columns:
- Dataset Name — the name of the uploaded dataset (e.g.,
Test) - Upload ID — a unique UUID identifying the specific upload
- Uploaded By — the user who performed the upload (e.g.,
AW Test) - Uploaded At — date and time the upload occurred
- Trigger — how the upload was started (e.g.,
Manual) - Status — badge showing
SUCCESS(green), and presumablyFAILED/PROCESSING/CANCELLEDstates based on the summary cards - Actions — an eye icon to view more details about that upload
Notes - Status filter can be used to narrow the table to just
Successful,Failed,Processing, orCancelleduploads. - Uploaded By shows the display name of the user, useful for tracking accountability on manual uploads. - Clicking the eye icon under Actions likely opens a detailed view of that specific upload (not shown here — let me know if you have a screenshot of that view and I can document it the same way).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)¶
Q: What does the Dataset History page track? A: It tracks every dataset upload attempt — whether it succeeded, failed, is still processing, or was cancelled — along with who uploaded it and when.
Q: How is this different from the Dataset page? A: The Dataset page is where you define and manage dataset schemas/structures. Dataset History is a monitoring/audit page that shows the upload activity for those datasets over time.
Q: What do the different status values mean?
A:
- SUCCESS — the upload completed and the data was processed correctly
- FAILED — the upload encountered an error and did not complete
- PROCESSING — the upload is still in progress
- CANCELLED — the upload was stopped before completion, either manually or by the system
Q: How can I find a specific upload? A: Use the search bar to look it up by dataset name, upload ID, or uploader name. You can also narrow results using the status filter or date filter.
Q: What does "Trigger" mean in the uploads table?
A: It indicates how the upload was initiated — for example, Manual means a user uploaded the dataset directly, as opposed to an automated or scheduled trigger.
Q: Can I see more details about a specific upload? A: Yes — click the eye icon in the Actions column to drill into that upload's details for troubleshooting.
Q: Who can see uploads on this page — only my own, or everyone's? A: This depends on your role/permissions configuration. Check with your admin if you expect to see uploads from other users but don't.
Q: Why would an upload show as Failed? A: Common causes include schema mismatches, invalid data formats, connectivity issues during upload, or validation errors against the target dataset structure. Use the details view (eye icon) to investigate the specific cause.
Q: How do I refresh the data on this page? A: Click the Refresh button in the toolbar to reload the latest upload status information.
