  1. Set Default Data Filters

Configure default filters to control which databases, schemas, and tables are included or excluded during ingestion.

Default Database Filter Pattern

  • Includes / Excludes:
    To add a filter pattern, simply type it in and press Enter.

Default Schema Filter Pattern

  • Includes / Excludes:
    To add a filter pattern, simply type it in and press Enter.

Default Table Filter Pattern

  • Includes / Excludes:

These filters help streamline the ingestion process by targeting only the relevant data assets.
