Create a data source in the GUI
User permissions required: 'Sources admin'.
Note: If you have the Sources Admin permission, you can also create a new source when you Create a new dataset.
Creating a Source in the GUI essentially sets up an empty source with defined properties (as shown below), that data can then be uploaded to via the API. The setup of this source can also be done via the API (see here), however, this method may be easier for non-technical users to easily define their source properties, before a technical user uploads the data.
Note:
This does not cover how to upload data to a source via the API. For details on this, please see the relevant section of the API docs here.
To create a data source in the GUI:
- Navigate to the 'Sources' page via the Admin console
- Select the 'New Source' button at the top of the page
- Fill in the required source properties, which include:
- Source project
- Source name
- Source title
- Source description
- Sensitive properties (that require the View sensitive data permission to view)
- Language
- Translation enabled or disabled (required Create translated sources permission)
- Select Create source.
