Kyvos automatically validates many types of objects. Validation checks that the format of the data is correct. There may be warnings or the data may be invalid.
To validate objects, click the Actions menu (…) and click Validate.
If there is an issue with an object, you will see Warnings in orange or Invalid in red on the page. Click the validation box to see details about the issue. When available, additional information to help resolve the issue is provided. You can also copy this information to the clipboard.
Relationships
If the relationship is invalid, the measures or dimensions that are an issue are highlighted in red. Click the validation box for details. If there are invalid links, you will see an option to delete them by clicking the link at the bottom of the validation details dialog box.
After you delete a single link by selecting and deleting it, you must manually validate the relationship.
Semantic Models
When the semantic model is invalid, the measures or dimensions that are an issue are highlighted in red. Click the validation box for details. If there are warnings, the validation box is orange.
Some validation issues give you the option to update the cube. You can click the Update semantic model item when you view the validation error details. After the semantic model updates, validate it again, and it should be valid.
If you remove a file from the relationship design and replace it with another using the same name and field names, you will need to update the semantic model for validation.
Tip
- The semantic model will be invalid if any measure doesn’t have a valid relationship with any of the dimensions or if any dimension doesn’t have a valid relationship with any of the measures.
- If a semantic model is invalid, the error message displays the dimension or measure name and indicates where you need to verify the arrow directions in the transformation relationship and possibly change the arrow direction to make the relation valid.
You can also validate calculated members and expressions used in the semantic models.
Properties
You can validate the syntax of functions or external tasks in the Properties dialog box for that function or task.
