Announcements:

  • About the Reporting SIG meeting schedule

    • Meetings are held on the first 4 Mondays of each month at 11:00 am Eastern U.S. time (see this time in your time zone). The first and third Mondays focus on Reporting Development topics, and the second and fourth Mondays focus on Reporting Business topics. 

    • "business" means topics like presentations on reporting functionality and new features, new reporting applications, surveys and studies on reporting, etc.

    • "development" means working on derived tables and report queries for the folio-analytics GitHub repository

    • "workshopping" queries could be scheduled during any of these meetings, and it would be great to have topics and/or questions in advance so we can prepare to walk through the answers/approaches, such as "how to I fix this inventory query to get rid of the duplicates?" or "what is the best way to calculate totals in this finance query?" 

  • December 23 meeting is canceled

Ongoing Topics:

  • Workshopping your queries

    • part of each Reporting SIG business meeting will be devoted to time to work through any query questions you may have

    • please reach out to Christie Thomas if you have a question you would like to "workshop" during an upcoming Reporting SIG meeting

  • Impacts of New Fields and Features (Sharon)

  • Upcoming Reporting SIG meeting topics (tentative)

    • Derived Tables

    • FUNCTIONS

  • Any new members?

    • Welcome/introductions

SIG Recruitment:

We will need to be recruiting for a variety of roles in the coming months. Please consider whether you would be interested. Please reach out to Scott Perry or Sharon Markus with any questions.

As posted on #metadb-mapping -

I have clarity around which tables the transformed data will appear in. Let’s refer to the documentation https://metadb.dev/doc/#_create_data_mapping

There is an image of the data we are working with:

And the CREATE DATA MAPPING commands:

Code Block
CREATE DATA MAPPING FOR json
    FROM TABLE library.inventory__ COLUMN jsondata PATH '$'
    TO 't';

CREATE DATA MAPPING FOR json
    FROM TABLE library.inventory__ COLUMN jsondata PATH '$.metadata'
    TO 'metadata';

CREATE DATA MAPPING FOR json
    FROM TABLE library.inventory__ COLUMN jsondata PATH '$.tags'
    TO 'tags';

CREATE DATA MAPPING FOR json
    FROM TABLE library.inventory__ COLUMN jsondata PATH '$.tags.tagList'
    TO 'taglist';

Mapping a JSON object creates columns, and mapping a JSON array creates a table.  The only array in this example is tagList.  This results in an inventory__taglist table.  Everything else results in columns in the corresponding parent table, which in this case is inventory__t.The outermost object is a special case because there is no parent table.  So it results in the top-level inventory__t table.But if you imagine there is already a table inventory__t, the top-level columns and nested objects are added to it.
