Configuring File group
By default, Data Insight will have predefined file groups based on the extension of the files. You can use the existing file groups but you will not be able to modify or delete these file groups. If you want some extensions from the file group but want to remove unwanted ones, copy the predefined file groups and save it by another name. You can then modify the extensions and create a file group as per your requirement. You can create a completely new custom file groups and add required extensions in it. All custom file groups are editable. You can add or modify extensions or delete those file groups entirely.
The File Groups page will list all predefined file groups. You can see the details like Name, Type and Extensions.
To add new file group,
- Click File Groups in the left pane.
- Click Add New File Group.
- Enter a logical unique name for the file group.
- In the Extension field, enter the extension that you want to include in the file group and click Add Extension.
You can add multiple file extensions to a single file group.
Note:
Do not add . while adding the extension. If you want to add pdf or jpeg, do not add .pdf or .jpeg. Add pdf or jpeg only. In addition to this, note that extension with * . and _ are not supported. For example _501 or _eml
- Click Save after adding the required extensions.
The newly created file group will appear on the File Groups page. You can see Name, Type, and number of Extensions for individual file group.
- Click the arrow next to the file group to view or delete extensions.
Note:
You can delete extensions from custom file group only.
- You can add Extensions, copy or delete the custom file group by clicking Action menu on the right.
You can create multiple file groups, as per the data your sources are expected to generate. Using the predefined file groups or creating custom file groups will help in report generation and excluding unsupported extensions while classification.
