Data structures in data catalog

Object information

In the Constructor Platform data catalog, each object possesses the following information:

  • object_id — a unique identifier assigned to the object within the data catalog.
  • name — a name assigned to the object.
  • description — a description provided for the object, if available.

To access these attributes from any object created or loaded using the SDK, the following methods are available:

Python
def object_id(self) -> str def name(self) -> str def description(self) -> Optional[str]
InformationIMPORTANT: Newly created or modified objects may not have an object_id until they are flushed to the data catalog.
