Add stages to change your data from 1 format to another format.
One way you transform data in a dataset is by adding a stage. There are different types of stages. You can add a new stage to the end of any pipeline in your dataset. Some stage types can only be added to derived datasets.
  1. Access the
    Edit Dataset Transformations
    task for a dataset.
  2. (Required for derived datasets) Select the dataset pipeline where you want to add the stage.
    Select the primary pipeline of a derived dataset for some stage types, such as Join or Union.
    Base datasets have only 1 pipeline, which is the primary pipeline.
  3. Click
    Add Stage
    , and select the type of stage to add.
  4. Configure the stage parameters.
    The parameters you define depend on the type of stage that you're adding.
  5. (Optional) Add a description while editing any stage except the Import stage of a derived dataset.
