Author and run a rule
The following steps will guide you through the process of authoring and running a rule in a Workshop application.
- Find the Workshop Rule application: From the workflow configuration screen, select the folder and choose the Workshop application.
-
Author a rule: Within the Workshop application created in the previous step, click the Create New button to begin creating a rule.
- (a) Fill out the form at the top of the rule with a name, description, and other information.
- (b) Author logic that you want the rule to execute. For example, this could be a simple filter.
- (c) Click Submit changes to create a proposal for this new rule.
-
Approve the proposal: Within the Proposals tab of the Workshop application, select the newly created proposal on the left side.
- Select Approve to activate it as a rule.
-
Build the rule writeback and rules output datasets: Navigate to the output dataset that was created while configuring the workflow.
- Choose Actions, then Explore data lineage to view the input datasets.
- Select both the rules writeback dataset (d) and the output dataset (e).
- Right-click with both datasets selected and choose Build.
- Once the build has completed, the output dataset will contain the results of your new rule. In the future, these two datasets can be placed on a schedule to keep the outputs up to date.
