Metrics release notes
December 2024 Release
New features and changes
daily_catalog_resources_pages_facts table: The following changes are made to the the table improving the accuracy and flexibility of resource tracking and reporting.
Audit events for resource measures: Resource creation, update, and delete measures are now derived from audit events rather than UI events. This ensures a more comprehensive and reliable record of resource modifications. Note: UI Events for Resource Views continue to be derived from UI events.
Human-readable resource names: The value of the resourcename column will now be set to NULL until one of the following UI actions is performed on the resource: sem_event#cat.resource.overview.view, sem_event#cat.resource.settings.view, sem_event#cat.collection.view, sem_event#cat.resource.discussion.view, sem_event#cat.resource.view, sem_event#cat.resource.edit, sem_event#cat.resource.delete, sem_event#cat.resource.suggest.submit, sem_event#cat.resource.suggest.approve, sem_event#cat.resource.suggest.deny
Important
It is possible to compute the resource name column using a query directly against the catalog graph. Submit a support ticket for help getting this set up.
Enhanced Resource Type Representation: The resourcetype column now contains an array of type IRIs. While most resources will have a single type IRI, certain resources may be defined by a hierarchy of types. This enhancement allows for more nuanced classification and understanding of resource types.
daily_dwec_asset_facts (available in baseplatformdata, platform-analytics, and platform data private listings) and resources_live_metadata_assets_activity_by_day (available in ddw-metrics dataset and ddw-metrics private listings) tables:
Column Renaming: The ASSET column is renamed to rdf_type to provide a more descriptive and accurate representation of the data.
rdf_type aggregation limitation: The number of different values in the rdf_type column has grown a lot, making it challenging to use for combining data in the fact table. For now, we have set all entries in the rdf_type column to ALL.
For users that require granular measures aggregated by resource type, we recommend using the daily_catalog_resources_pages_facts table. Constraints to note: The daily_catalog_resources_pages_facts table only includes resources associated with user activity in the UI. Resources created via bulk upload that have not been operated upon or viewed are not represented in this table.
