8.2.9 Visualization for Catalog Extensions

DFCS supports catalog extensions to support new or client-specific business use cases via:

1. Addition of new custom attribute to existing entity, or
2. Creation of new custom entity.

For detailed list of Enabled Data Model Extensions in Catalog and process to extend, please refer to Oracle® Data Foundation Cloud Service Data Catalog.

Once catalog extensions are published and available in the data model, the corresponding data will be accessible through SCD or connectors.

DFCS also supports the visualization of newly added data points using two methods:

1. Reports Configuration in Subject Areas
   • This method involves mapping newly created attributes and dimensions to placeholders in pre-built Subject Areas.
   • Applicable only for visualizing results data.
2. Creating Custom Datasets
   • This method is suitable for all types of visualizations.
