Create a revalidate job

Learn how to create a job that analyzes and validates entities or relationships against a set of data validation functions.

Before you create a revalidate job, you must create data validation functions for the job to analyze. For more information, see topic Create DVFs in the Data Modeler.
After you create or edit Data Validation Functions, use the Tenant Management to run a revalidate job for existing data in your tenant. This job runs the DVFs for all entities and relationships of the specified type.
To create and run a revalidate job:
  1. In Console, select the Tenant Management application.
  2. In the Tenant Management navigation panel, select Jobs.
  3. Select Select a job.
  4. In the Create new job page, select Revalidate job.
  5. In the Revalidate menu, specify one or more of the following fields:
    • Entity type:: From this drop-down menu, select an entity type to run all the Data Validation Functions for all entities of this type.

    • Entity URI list:: Enter the URI list of only selected entities that you want to run all Data Validation Functions for.
      Note: If you specify both Entity type and Entity URI list fields, then Data Validation Functions run only on the URI list and ignore other Entity types in the request.
    • Relationship type: From this drop-down menu, select a relationship type to run all the Data Validation Functions for all relationships of this type.

    • Relationship URI list: Enter the URI list of only selected relationships that you want to run all data validation functions for.
      Note: If you select both Relationship type and Relationship URI list fields, Data Validation Functions run only on the URI list and ignore other Relationship types in the request.
    If you run the revalidate job on entities and relationships at the same time, the Jobs page displays two separated job entries.
  6. Select Run Job. A notification appears indicating that an email will be sent once the job is completed.
  7. While the job is processing, it appears in the Pending tab. To pause or stop the revalidate job, at the top of the Revalidate panel on the right, select the pause or stop icon.
  8. Select the Completed tab to view the details of the completed revalidate jobs.
