Saving a table as a logical view

Cloudera Data Visualization allows you to create logical tables. Use a logical view if you want updated query results every time you run the visualization.

You have a table visual that you want to save as a logical view.
  1. On the top right menu, click the (ellipsis) icon and select Save Table from the menu.
  2. In the Create a Table or Dataset modal window, fill out these fields:
    1. Choose Logical view for Type to generate updated query results every time the visualization is loaded or refreshed.
    2. Under Create in database, choose an existing database where you want to save the table.
    3. Enter the name of the new logical view.
    4. Optional: When creating a dataset as part of this operation, select the Create a new dataset based on new table/view option and enter the Dataset name.

    A success confirmation modal appears, with a link to the new default visual on the new dataset.

  3. Click the link to open a new default visual on the new dataset, in Edit mode.
