Editing an Application

Edit an application in Data Integration to change its name or description, or use formatted text to add information about the application.

If data lineage generation isn't enabled in the application and you enable it by selecting the Generate data lineage check box, Data Integration generates lineage information only for the task runs that are initiated after the application is saved. Lineage metadata for previous runs in the application are not generated.

The generated lineage metadata is available for viewing only in the Data Catalog service. For complete information about data lineage, the supported data source types and tasks, and the level of support in some operators, see the following pages in the Data Catalog service documentation:

    1. On the workspace home page, click Applications.
    2. On the Applications page, select the compartment that contains the application.
    3. In the applications list, select Edit from the Actions menu of the application that you want to edit.
    4. On the Edit application details page, use the Next and Previous buttons to step through the following sections:
      • Basic details: You can edit the name and description of the application, and add a custom logo. The logo appears next to the application name on the main application details page.

        Clear the Generate data lineage check box if you don't want Data Integration to generate lineage metadata for the data entities that are processed in the application.

      • Additional details: You can add more information about the application using formatted text. The formatted information is available for viewing on the main application details page by clicking View details next to Additional information.
      • Review and save: Review the modifications before saving.
    5. Click Save to apply the changes.
