Import metadata

Hello Fellows,

 

 

I'm working with a hadoop dataset with more than 60 fields.

Thing is, the metadata are written in an exell spread sheet, and I want to incorporate it in my workflow without having to manualy input it in the select tool.

(By metadata I mean the field description)

 

Is tere any way to do thys automacticaly?

 

Regards

hey @mauricio 
You can indeed!

You will want to use a dynamic select tool:

Within here, you have the option to take field descriptions from either input rows, or right input metadata.

Hope this helps!
