What is the Data Watch service?
The Data Watch service is a service that runs on the Oracle Analytics Cloud server every four hours by default. This service looks for changes in the data and displays the cards that contain the changed data. As an administrator, when you enable this service, all the users of Oracle Analytics Day by Day in your organization can specify the threshold for bring backs. When the data in a card reaches the specified threshold, this service enables the app to retrieve that card and display it in the user’s feed.
The Data Watch service is an experimental feature. Specify the frequency at which this service must scan the server for changes based on the frequency of changes in your data sources.

How do I add cards to the Suggested section in the Recommended feed?
- In the app, tap Search.
- Search for data. Depending on the number of items that you search for, the app generates a card or series of cards. The app displays card types that are best suited for the returned data. For example, if you search for Revenue and Product, then you see a single card that depicts Revenue by Product. If you search for Revenue, Product, and Brand, then you see a series of cards that display varying combinations of Revenue, Product, and Brand.
- Tap for the card that you want.
