Checkpoint types

A checkpoint type describes a specific type of action a user can take on the platform (for example, uploading a dataset or removing a user's access to a Marking).

The checkpoint type selector supports filtering checkpoint types based on their functionality category or related application. Users must select a checkpoint type when configuring checkpoint configurations; they can also filter checkpoint configurations and checkpoint records by checkpoint type.

Available checkpoint types

Some checkpoint types are not available on all Foundry instances and are only available if specific applications are enabled in Foundry.

  • API export: Downloading API metadata from a Developer Console application.
  • Attachment export: Downloading an attachment from a comment or from an object via Actions.
  • Attachment import: Uploading an attachment to an object via Actions.
  • Build log export: Downloading a log file from a dataset build or from an ML live deployment.
  • Cipher Encrypt: Encrypting data with Cipher. This checkpoint is only available if Cipher is enabled.
  • Cipher Decrypt: Decrypting data with Cipher. This checkpoint is only available if Cipher is enabled.
  • Code Repository build: Building in Code Repositories.
  • Code Repository log export: Downloading a log file from Code Repositories.
  • Code Repository modify approval policy: Creating or updating an approval policy in Code Repositories.
  • Code Repository merge pull request: Merging a pull request in Code Repositories.
  • Code Workbook build: Building in Code Workbooks.
  • Code Workspace log export: Downloading a log file from Code Workspaces.
  • Compass export: Downloading a file or dataset from Foundry. This checkpoint type includes the download of all datasets, files, and images in Compass.
  • Compass import: Uploading a file or dataset into the Foundry filesystem. This checkpoint type includes all frontend imports of Compass resources and the upload of new data into a dataset through the front-end.
  • Contour create: Creating or duplicating a Contour analysis. Creating an analysis from the New dropdown action, from the Analyze button on datasets, or by exporting objects to Contour will trigger this checkpoint. Duplicating an analysis from the Open as duplicate analysis action on a Contour analysis or through the File menu will also trigger this checkpoint.
  • Contour dashboard export: Exporting a Contour dashboard to PDF.
  • Contour export: Downloading data from Contour. Exporting data from the Contour export board will trigger this checkpoint. Note that exporting data from the Contour pivot table board is not considered a Contour export but is instead classified as a frontend export.
  • Data Connection sync bulk create: Bulk-creating JDBC Data Connection syncs.
  • Data Connection sync create: Creating a new Data Connection sync.
  • Data Connection sync edit: Editing a new Data Connection sync.
  • Deploy pipeline: Deploying a new pipeline in Pipeline Builder.
  • Export to Code Workspace: Adding data from Foundry to a code workspace. The Import dataset button in Code Workspaces will trigger this checkpoint.
  • Frontend export: Downloading data rendered in the Foundry frontend. This currently includes downloads from the pivot table board in Contour, Code Workbook templates, Foundry Templates, and so on. Contact your Palantir representative for a complete list of actions associated with this checkpoint.
  • Group Member Addition: Adding a user or group as a member of a group.
  • Group Member Removal: Removing a user or group as a member of a group.
  • Hubble export: Downloading an object or object set using the Export as Excel action in Object Explorer or Workshop.
  • Import from Code Workspace: Saving data to Foundry from a code workspace. The Save to dataset button in Code Workspaces will trigger this checkpoint.
  • Login: Logging into Foundry. Login checkpoints also require the checkpoints login asynchronous user managers (AUM) to be enabled in Control Panel.
  • Manage Code Workspace dashboard downloads: Enabling or disabling downloads from Code Workspace dashboards.
  • Marking Member Addition: Granting a user or group access to a marking.
  • Marking Member Removal: Removing a user's or group's access to a marking.
