The All Assets page displays the following types of assets that are created by your organization or that your partners grant data permissions for you to access:

  • Segments

  • Tables and Views

  • User-Defined Functions (UDFs)

From the navigation pane, select Data Assets → All Assets to open the All Assets page.

Alternatively, if you know the asset type that you want to view and manage, go to Data Assets and then click the User-Defined FunctionsTables and Views, or Segments options. These pages provide the same features as the All Assets page while displaying only one asset type.

Note

If your organization lacks access to the Segment Builder feature, the left navigation pane does not display the Segments option.

Search for Assets

You can search for assets in the following ways:

  • Full name: Enter the full name of the asset. The search ignores underscores (_).

  • Partial name: Enter parts of the asset's name. You do not have to enter words in the exact sequence.

  • Asterisks (*): Use asterisks (*) to replace parts of the asset's name. For example, you can type "*male" if you are looking for assets whose names end with "male".

If multiple assets match your search, they will be listed based on relevance.

Column Headings on the All Assets Page

The All Assets page table displays the following columns:

Actions You Can Perform on the All Assets Page

You can perform the following actions from the All Assets page:

  • Create a data permission for a table, view, segments, or UDF.

  • View asset details, including whether your organization or a partner owns the asset, the tags applied, its columns, when it was last modified, and when it was created. If a data permission was created for the asset, the information is displayed in the asset's side panel.

  • Overlap data assets (limited to your first-party segments and tables that are not in an error or pending status).

  • Delete assets owned by your organization. Deleted tables, views, and segments are accessible in the Recycle Bin and can be restored within 30 days of deletion. For instructions, see “Delete an Asset” and “The Recycle Bin Page”.

    Note

    Deleted UDFs are not accessible in the Recycle Bin and cannot be restored once deleted.

  • For tables, you can also perform the following actions:

    • Build segments from boolean columns: You can build segments from any boolean columns in the table so that you can activate those segments to destination platforms. For more information, see "Build Segments from Multiple Boolean Table Columns for Activation".

    • Configure events: If you have tables in your account that contain consumer behavior data, such as transactions, conversion events, or impressions, you can configure the data in those tables as "events" so that you can use those events in segment building. For more information, see "Configure Events".

    • Delete a table: You can delete a table if your organization owns the table. Deleted tables are accessible in the Recycle Bin and can be restored within 30 days of deletion. For instructions, see “Delete an Asset” and “The Recycle Bin Page”.

      Note

      Deleting a table does not delete the corresponding data source.

  • For segments, you can also perform the following actions:

    • View segment details: From the details panel on the Segments page, you can view information about the segment, such as overview information, segment rules, and activity history. From the details panel you can also edit the segment description and the tags. To open the details panel, click anywhere in the row for that segment. For more information, see "View Segment Details".

    • Duplicate a segment: To create a new segment that is similar to a segment you've already created, you can duplicate the original segment and then edit it to create the new segment. For instructions on duplicating a segment, see "Duplicate a Segment".

    • Edit a segment: You can edit the segment rules and description for an existing first-party segment that was created by your organization in the Data Collaboration Platform. For instructions, see "Edit a Segment".

    • Delete a segment: You can delete a segment if your organization owns the segment. Deleted segments are accessible in the Recycle Bin and can be restored within 30 days of deletion. For instructions, see “Delete an Asset” and “The Recycle Bin Page”.

      Note

      Deleting a segment does not delete the corresponding source data.

  • For UDFs, you can also perform the following actions:

    • Open the definition: If you own the UDF, you can select Open Definition from the More Options menu (more-options-icon.png) to display the UDF's SQL code in SQL Editor.

    • Insert in Editor: If your partner shared a UDF with you, you can select Insert in Editor option from the More Options menu to view the SQL code used to query your partner's data. If you own the UDF, you can select this option to view what your partner will see when you grant permission to use the UDF.

      For more information about these options, see "View a User-Defined Function in SQL Editor".

    Note

    The side panel for UDFs includes parameter details. If your organization owns the function, its full SQL definition is displayed.

To perform these actions, you can do either of the following methods:

Note

Follow the instructions listed above for the desired action.

  • Select one or more asset check boxes on the left of the row to display a set of buttons at the bottom of the page that you can click. The More button will display the View and Delete options if available for the asset.
