Datasets pane

Use the Datasets pane to add and manage datasets. The pane includes the following tabs that group the datasets:

  • My datasets – The datasets that you created or imported. You can create a new dataset on this tab if you have the corresponding role. For details, see Adding datasets.

  • Shared with me – The datasets that were shared with you.

You can search for a dataset by its name, tags, and description.

By default, the pane shows the first 35 datasets. If you have more datasets, scroll down to add another set of 35 datasets into the view.

Tile & List views

On each tab, datasets are listed as tiles or as a list depending on the selected view. Tiles are shown by default. To switch to List view, click the respective icon in the upper-right corner of the pane. The view is saved per tab.
