What is it?
You can now schedule recurring Expectation Suite runs directly in GX Cloud!
Where is it?
Scheduling features are in your Expectation Suites:
- For existing Expectation Suites, a paused schedule has been added; you can activate and configure it when and if you want to.
- For new Expectation Suites, you’ll configure a schedule when you create the Expectation Suite! Simply pick the frequency and timing from the dropdown menus. You can start running the schedule right away, or pause, reconfigure, and reactivate the schedule anytime.
How does it help me?
It’s now much easier to automate your GX Cloud data validations! And nontechnical users can now view, manage, and create Expectation Suite schedules without having to learn a separate orchestration tool.
How do I start using scheduling in GX Cloud?
Open the Expectations tab of your Data Asset and select the Expectation Suite you want to manage the schedule of. You can read more here.
Does this affect my existing orchestrations for GX Cloud?
No, your Airflow or other orchestrator integration is not affected by the addition of in-app scheduling. You can use GX Cloud’s scheduling and orchestrator-driven data validation runs at the same time. Expectation Suites created via the API will be created with a paused schedule.
