OAC5 - where are the 'measure analysis' tiles?

In previous versions I have loaded up a data set, created a project, clicked on 'Prepare' and then clicked on the 'Data Tiles' and looked at the data attributes profiled by the measures in the data sets.  I've probably not articulated that very well, but I can't seem to find that in the latest OAC or DVD.  What am I missing - I know there's a lot of great new features in OAC5 and I was wondering if it had been moved somewhere else?

Regards,

Mark

  • Mark,

    I complained to Product Management 3 weeks ago and the enhancement request is open :-)

  • Not only you. For a moment I thought I'd lost my mind, spun up another OAC, spun up an autonomous one, checked DVD.....and DVD still has it. That's what hurt the most.

  • Hello Mark, in OAC 18.3.3 a partial workaround to this feature is to use Explain on any metric on your dataset.

    This video shows an example (watch the 50s starting at timing 2.17) https://youtu.be/WPfwtTlF6EI?t=137.

    Explain on Metrics is new in 18.3.3 and will help you gain most of the overall insights that used to be available with former Smart Insights pane. In addition, it will let you add them to the canvas pane directly and interact with these.

    hope this helps for now

    Thanks Philippe, that's actually quite a useful new feature and I've changed the thing I was doing to use the explain functionality.
