Configuring Bind IDs

Bind IDs are used to define the focal entity by selecting the data on which the analysis is centered.

These bindings determine the types of information which display in the generated events.

To configure Bind IDs, follow these steps:

  1. Click to open the Bind IDs Configuration tab in the Create Event pane of the Create Event widget. The Bind IDs Configuration tab displays all tables and columns which were mapped in the data forge for this pipeline.
  2. Use the Bind ID selector to choose which types of information you want to display in the generated events. For example, to display Customer information in your events, select the Customer Internal ID column from the Customer Dimension table as your Bind ID.

    Note:

    Bind IDs selected should be a column which is unique to the table.
    The following table provides examples of some commonly selected Bind IDs.
