Overview of objects related to integration tasks

The Related panel lists the input objects, output objects, dependent objects, and downstream tasks associated with the current integration task. You can view and manage these objects from this panel.

• Input objects

  Input objects are tables that input components reference and read in integration tasks. The list displays the table name, Chinese table name, and table type. You can filter input tables by type, including logical dimension tables, logical fact tables, logical aggregate tables, data source objects, and physical tables. Click the Actions column icon for an input object to view its details.

• Output objects

  Output objects are tables generated by output components in integration tasks. The list displays the table name, Chinese name, and table type. You can search for output tables by entering keywords from the object name. Click the icon in the Actions column of an output object to view its details.

  Note

  Only tables in the Dataphin asset catalog can be written to by a task. Tables in external data sources cannot be listed as output tables.

• Dependent objects

  Dependent objects are resources that the current task relies on, such as public calendars and global variables.

  • Public Calendar: Lists the public calendar objects associated with the current task, including calendar code, calendar name, and reference method. Click the Actions column icon to view its details.

  • Global Variables: Lists the global variable objects associated with the current task, including variable code and variable name. You can click the Actions column icon to view its details.

• Downstream tasks

  Downstream tasks are integration tasks and logical tables that directly depend on the current task as an upstream dependency. The list displays the downstream node name/ID, node type, referenced parameters, , associated project/module, scheduling cycle, and owner. You can click to filter downstream tasks by node type, referenced parameters, node project/module, , scheduling cycle, and O&M owner. Click the icon in the Actions column of a downstream task to view its details.
