Preparing data

After you create a project, or join one, the next step is to add data to the project and prepare the data for analysis.

Required permissions
You must have the Admin or Editor role in a project to add or prepare data.

You can add these types of data assets to a project:

  • Data assets from files from your local system, including structured data, unstructured data, and images.
  • Connection assets that contain information for connecting to data sources. You can add connections to IBM or third-party data sources. See Connectors.
  • Connected data assets that specify a table, view, or file that is accessed through a connection to a data source.
  • Connected folder assets that specify a path in IBM Cloud Object Storage.
