Use the Enhanced Semantic Model Extension Capabilities
The enhanced semantic model extensibility provides better usability and understanding of the model and customizations along with better performance and consistency of the semantic model. The enhanced capabilities result in a much faster time to have all changes available for reporting.
The enhanced semantic model extensions capability adopts an object focused experience instead of a task focused experience in the existing capability. This enables you to see changes done to a specific objects rather than having to derive the changes from several scattered steps. The enhanced capability has a logically organized flow for better usability with recommended practices enforced and better performance.
- Make changes within sandboxes, which are each user’s work area.
- Publish a sandbox to test and merge it to the Main once tested.
- Keep all changes for an object available in one place.
- Publish only one sandbox at a time. Publishing a sandbox removes any sandbox already published. If you've merged a sandbox, then the system preserves the changes if you publish any other sandbox.
- Zoom and focus on specific areas of the logical star using the Graphic tab on the Logical Star page.
- Rearrange the objects in the logical star using the Graphic tab on the Logical Star page.
- View all the joins in a tabular format using the Tabular tab on the Logical Star page.
- Create a sandbox.
- Select Perform Action and then select Create or Manage a Star.
- Make changes as required (the changes are done to the logical model).
- Select Perform Action and then select Manage Subject Areas.
- Incorporate logical changes in the desired subject areas.
- Go back to Semantic Model Extensions page, select User Extensions, select Publish Model, and then select the sandbox to publish.
- In Oracle Analytics Cloud associated with your Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence instance, verify if the changes are reflected in the subject area.
