6 Exploring a Data Set

Explore allows you to explore a data set, either from the Catalog or from within a project.

• About exploring a data set
  Explore allows you to explore the structure and data values in a data set.
• Selecting the data to explore
  You can explore a data set from the Catalog or from within a project.
• Switching Explore between tile view and table view
  By default, Explore displays each attribute as a tile containing a visualization showing the distribution of values for that attribute.
• Filtering and sorting displayed attributes in Explore or Transform
  You can filter and sort displayed attributes in the Explore and Transform views to more easily navigate a data set. If you are within a project data set, these preferences apply for all project users.
• Working with an individual attribute in Explore
  From Explore, you can filter the values, select a different visualization, and display a details panel with additional options.
• Using the scratchpad
  You can use the scratchpad component on the Explore page to try out different visualizations with one or more attributes before adding them to a Discover page.
• Keyboard shortcuts for Scratchpad
  Studio provides a number of keyboard shortcuts to simplify interacting with Scratchpad. See the following table.
