Adding and Removing Attributes

Create new attributes for data catalog objects or delete existing user attributes.

  1. Display the attributes for an object in the Enterprise Explorer view by right-clicking the object and selecting Attributes. The Edit Attributes dialog appears.
  2. To add a new attribute to the object, click Add. WorkSpace Data Federation adds a row to the attributes table.
  3. Enter a name for your new attribute in the Attribute Name field.
  4. In the Type field, select a data type from the pull-down menu.
  5. In the Value field, enter a value. Data Federation users will be able to find this object by searching on the value.
  6. To remove an attribute, select it and click Delete. WorkSpace Data Federation removes the attribute from the table and redisplays the Edit Attributes dialog.
  7. Click OK to save your changes and dismiss the Edit Attributes dialog.
