Data Attribute Types and Filter Operators

Metadata Attribute Types and Filter Operators

The metadata types and attributes are built into the system, so user self-definition and configuration are not supported.

See the table below for each metadata type and its built-in attributes:

Metadata Type	Built-In Attributes	Attribute Type
Data Source	name	string
Hive Table	name	string
DTV Service	id, name	string
Fileset	id, name, file type	string
Metric	No attributes	/
Business Term	No attributes	/
Measurement	id, name	string

The type of all metadata attributes is string. Optional operators for filtering by object attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	The attribute value is equal to the entered condition value
!=	The attribute value is unequal to the entered condition value
contains	The attribute value includes the entered condition value
ends with	The attribute value ends with the entered condition value
starts with	The attribute value starts with the entered condition value

Master Data Attribute Types and Filter Operators

Master data types and attributes support user self-definition and configuration. For more on master data type creation and attribute configuration, see Creating an Object Type.

• When the master data attribute type is date, optional operators for filtering by object attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
<	Date is earlier than the selected date
>	Date is later than the selected date

• When the master data attribute type is string, optional operators for filtering by object attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	The attribute value is equal to the entered condition value
!=	The attribute value is unequal to the entered condition value
contains	The attribute value includes the entered condition value
ends with	The attribute value ends with the entered condition value
starts with	The attribute value starts with the entered condition value

• When the master data attribute type is double, float, int, or long, optional operators for filtering by object attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	The attribute value is equal to the entered condition value
!=	The attribute value is unequal to the entered condition value
<	The attribute value is less than the entered condition value
>	The attribute value is more than the entered condition value
<=	The attribute value is less than or equal to the entered condition value
>=	The attribute value is more than or equal to the entered condition value

Tag Attribute Types and Filter Operators

Tag attributes support the user self-definition and configuration. For more on tag creation and attribute configuration, see Tag Management.

• When the tag attribute type is date, optional operators for filtering by tag attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
<	Date is earlier than the selected date
>	Date is later than the selected date

• When the tag attribute type is boolean, optional operators for filtering by tag attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	boolean value is true/false
!=	boolean value is not true/false

• When the tag attribute type is string, optional operators for filtering by tag attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	The attribute value is equal to the entered condition value
!=	The attribute value is unequal to the entered condition value
contains	The attribute value includes the entered condition value
ends with	The attribute value ends with the entered condition value
starts with	The attribute value starts with the entered condition value

• When the tag attribute type is double, byte, short, float, or int, optional operators for filtering by tag attribute are shown in the chart below:

Operator	Meaning
=	The attribute value is equal to the entered condition value
!=	The attribute value is unleequal to the entered condition value
<	The attribute value is less than the entered condition value
>	The attribute value is more than the entered condition value
<=	The attribute value is less than or equal to the entered condition value
>=	The attribute value is more than or equal to the entered condition value
