Configuration of Smarts
Segna automatically and intelligently predicts many of the decisions involved in the data importing process. For certain APIs, the predictions made can be configured between "smart" and a default guess.
These are configured using the configureSmartGuessing key of our Start job API. Smart behaviour is enabled by default, but can be configured for the following steps:
| Smart behaviour | Non-smart behaviour | |
|---|---|---|
| Field matching | Input columns in the uploaded data are intelligently mapped to the fields set on the pipeline schema. | Only exact mappings are possible (column name and field name must match exactly). |
| Field data types | The data type of each field is intelligently inferred based on properties of the data and the schema set on the pipeline. | Each field is assumed to be of type rich text. |
