Huwise discussions

If you're a Catalog Curator or Admin, you know the tension: users want more data in the marketplace, but every new dataset means more storage, more sync jobs, more staleness risk, and more governance overhead to track. Zero-copy (virtualization) removes a big chunk of that burden.What it solves for youNo duplication to manage. Zero-copy assets keep their records in the source system (Snowflake or Databricks). You expose the data without ingesting and storing a copy in Huwise : one less thing to maintain, monitor, and pay for. Data is always current. Because exploration queries hit the source directly, there's no sync schedule to configure, no "last updated" gap to explain to users. What they see in the marketplace is what's in the warehouse, right now. Governance stays exactly where you expect it. Zero-copy assets go through the same publication workflow as any other harvested asset : nothing is published automatically, so you still review before making it live. Access control and secu

Hello,I'd like to update the metadata for the assets using the Automation API. It seems that not all metadata fields can be modified directly via the API.Where can I find these restrictions?Using `/automation/v1.0/metadata/templates/default/fields`, you can see all fields, including those that cannot be modified.Furthermore, it’s not possible to retrieve the values of a list, such as for `default.theme`. 

Huwise now ships several AI building blocks, each built for a specific purpose. Knowing them well means picking the right tool for the right moment. Here's a quick tour.1. AI Insights: turn a question into a chartWhat it is. AI Insights generates a chart on the fly from a question asked in plain language, with no prior configuration. You describe what you want to visualize ("breakdown of data assets by topic"), and the AI identifies the relevant fields among the assets you have access to, picks a suitable chart type, and displays it.Why it's useful. For a one-off need : prepping for a meeting in ten minutes, checking a hunch, exploring data with no technical skills required. AI Insights skips manual configuration entirely. Good to know. The result is disposable: if you need a stable chart to share or reuse over time, use Chartbuilder instead, not AI Insights. And as with any generated answer, always double-check the numbers shown against the relevant data asset's page. 2. Semantic sear

In the past we were able to draw a polygon in a geographical map (e.g. Germany Postal Codes). This was used to extract a specific list of postal codes and areas based on the polygon. Right now it does not seem to be possible to draw those polygons on the map anymore. Is there a way around it or a possibility in the future again? 

If you've ever had a data asset stuck in draft because of one empty mandatory field (and no way to tell which one without opening every record), here's how to fix that programmatically instead of clicking through the UI one asset at a time.Why this happensEvery metadata template defines requirement levels (mandatory / recommended / optional). Soon, you won’t be able to publish an asset if a mandatory field on its active template is empty. Recommended fields never block publication, they just show as a caution sign within the asset settings page.The 3 calls you need :1/ GET the metadata template : returns the list of fields with their requirement level, so you know which ones are mandatory.GET /api/automation/v1.2/metadata-templates/{template_id}2/ GET  the asset's current metadata : returns the values currently set. Compare against the template to spot any mandatory field that's missing or empty.GET /api/automation/v1.2/datasets/{asset_id}/metadata3/ PATCH the asset's metadata : send t

For a spatial dataset, I can add an additional geographic projection e.g. 27700 for BNG in the backoffice. But this doesn’t appear in the export tab as an option, and my testing shows that the export is still in WGS84 - the default. Am I missing something or is this feature not working in the marketplace experience?

Hey thereWhen we want to embed a table in an iframe we have the /embed/ endpoint that we can use to hide the ODS header when displaying the dataset. Here is an example:Table with header:https://data.bl.ch/explore/dataset/12060/table/?disjunctive.jahr&disjunctive.gemeinde&disjunctive.kategorie&disjunctive.einheitTable without headerhttps://data.bl.ch/explore/embed/dataset/12060/table/?disjunctive.jahr&disjunctive.gemeinde&disjunctive.kategorie&disjunctive.einheitWe are currently trying to embed a dashboard created with the studio in an iframe. However, we can’t get rid of the header. Example:Dashboard with header:https://data.bl.ch/p/wahlen_nr_sr/Dashboard without header:? Is there a possibility to achieve this? If yes, how? Many thanks for your helpAuto-translation 🪄Salut.

Hello dear community :)We have created a new visualization here: Veranstaltungen im Raum St. Jakob.This visualization is based on four other datasets, and we would like to reference it. However, we can't find where or how to add this link/reference.Could you please let us know how to add our visualization as a source/usage reference on the four original datasets?Thank you for your help.Best regards,Boris 

Après plusieurs tests de configuration, le support Opendatasoft nous a indiqué que le connecteur HTTP en OAuth2 ne permet pas encore de limiter l’autorisation d’accès à un site SharePoint en particulier “Sites.Selected” (voir Controlling app access on a specific SharePoint site collections - ESPC Conference, 2025). Pour le moment, il est uniquement possible d’accorder une autorisation sur tous les sites SharePoint de notre organisation ce qui n’est pas conforme aux bonnes pratiques de sécurité « least privilege access ».Nous espérons que ce développement sera programmé dès que possible par Opendatasoft.

Is it possible to copy the full contents and paste from a field from the table view?  For example the geo_shape when complex truncates.  It would be great if we can copy and paste the whole field.

This week ​@yier.wu  (Customer Support Specialist) and ​@frederic.passaniti (Solutions Architect) have broken down the biggest takeaways, limitations, and clever strategies discussed to keep your data publishing seamless. "Volume limits should never be an obstacle to publishing your datasets." — ​@Nicolas Terpolilli , Head of Product Delivery 📊 Understanding the limitsThe platform enforces three distinct types of technical limits based on how your datasets are ingested:1. Local file uploads (240 MB) The limit: applies to individual source files (CSV, JSON, XLSX, etc.) uploaded directly from your computer. Pro-tip: a single dataset can aggregate multiple sources, meaning you can combine multiple files that are each under 240 MB. 2. Remote connections (500 MB) The limit: applies to remote server data fetches via URLs, APIs, or data warehouse connectors (Snowflake, Databricks, Google Drive, etc.). Watch out: if an API response exceeds 500 MB, you'll receive a transfer error. This can

Hello Community! 👋We are launching a deep-dive initiative to bring our data to life and align it as closely as possible with your daily realities. To kick off this momentum, we have just rolled out two new features that are live starting today:1. A refreshed HomepageWe’ve redesigned the Hub's homepage to immediately highlight the latest datasets added or updated. No more searching around, the newest data now catches your eye as soon as you arrive.2. A data request form at your disposalIs a specific piece of data missing for your projects? Does a strategic dataset deserve more regular updates or specific enrichment?👉 You will now find a dedicated request form directly accessible in the Hub's top menu. Your feedback is what will drive our next data projects.An idea for what's next: what do you think?To make your life easier, we are also considering grouping certain key data into thematic "Data Packs" or by sector of use. Would this thematic "Packs" approach interest you? What would b

I’m wanting to build a dashboard that shows our various analytics for stakeholders and one I see in the portal under Analytics > Users is the estimated number of unique users who interacted with the workspace. How is this calculated? Ive tried to replicate the counts using various filters but can never get close. Has anyone built any stakeholder analytics pages that can offer some suggestions.

I would like to confirm whether the visualization features apply exclusively to data stored within the portal, or whether they also cover datasets referenced externally, such as those obtained via a harvester.

I would like to create collections, a grouping of assets which are related. For example on gov.uk they will release a report or finding and on the page will be everything related to it such as the report, data and links. How can we best achieve this in the marketplace experience?

We are preparing to migrate from the old platform to the new experience. We've made recent changes to one of our existing custom pages (https://data.townofcary.org/page/storydirectory/) by updating HTML/CSS in the main content area between the navigation menu bar and the footer. Do we need to do anything now to ensure the current content on this page will display once we migrate to the new experience? (We have about 10 custom pages in the same situation.)

Here’s how to safely automate dormant-user clean-up with the Huwise Automation API.💡 Strategic recommendations before you startBefore running any deletion script, we recommend setting clear rules to avoid revoking legitimate access:Set a reasonable inactivity threshold: For a first clean-up, favor 12 to 24 months. A 90-day threshold can be too short for a data portal where some users only log in once or twice per year. Segment your user populations: You can be stricter (e.g., 90 days) for invitations that were never activated, while staying more flexible with long-standing users. Protect critical accounts: Always exclude from your filters administrators, editors (publishers), data managers (data stewards), and service/API accounts. Notify your users: Send a reactivation email about 30 days before the deadline. This is a best practice and may also be required under GDPR.🛠️ The automation workflow (best practices)We recommend a 5-step approach to ensure data safety:Extract: Retrieve th

Hi,Is it possible to make a user an “admin” of a certain group, or is there any the blanket permission to allow users to edit all groups?Essentially we are in a project with a 3rd party where we want them to be able to add users to a group that has bespoke permissions to certain datasets, but we dont want to give this 3rd party the ability to edit all the groups on the portal. So if we can let them just add users to their one group, that would be very useful! Thanks Ryan

Hi, Is it possible to embed a custom view (map) created in the studio into our corporate website eg from this : Ecological Survey Sites — Open Data Portal?There used to be an option to get embed \ share \ widget codes. Do I need to create a duplicate page of the custom view to do this?
