33 - Exercise Summary

✅ What you built

  • A new column in your passenger Ontology dataset to serve as a more expressive title key for your Ontology object type.
  • A streamlined flight alerts Ontology dataset that removes an unnecessary column.
  • Updated table registrations for your passenger and flight alert object types to account for these changes.

✅ What you learned

  • Additive changes to the backing dataset do not interfere with the Phonograph synchronization process.
  • Phonograph does not automatically accept schema changes, and so you'll need to handle them manually by updating the property mapping and Phonograph table registration.
  • The Job Tracker application provides detailed messages about any Phonograph sync errors.
  • To process a deleted column from a backing dataset, you should unmap the property, save the Ontology, and update the table registration in OMA.
  • To process a schema change on an existing mapped column, you should change the data type in the column mapping configuration, save the Ontology, and update the table registration in OMA.
  • The Foundry documentation contains instructions for processing schema changes on columns that have received writeback edits.
