Data Typing

Data Typing

Segna will automatically detect the data type of your data. There are 4 different default data types:

  • Number
  • Date-time
  • Rich text
  • Category

If you've attached a pipeline with a fixed schema, or a have on data output destination that has a specific schema (e.g. a database table), then Segna will match the data types of the input data with the schema. If the schema is flexible, Segna will try to guess the data types of any output column added to the schema when the file is uploaded.

If Segna guesses incorrectly, you can always configure the data types through our API.
