Speaking of datasets...
This feature allows you to define which datasets will be offline on mobile devices, which should be synchronized with the external data provider, the synchronization frequency, among other options.
Datasets are components that allow you to standardize access to information from locations external to the platform, such as applications and databases. High-performance datasets have a data storage cache obtained externally, which aims to reduce the number of accesses to external data services, that is, it creates a copy of the data structure within the platform for consultation, enhancing the performance of datasets developed on the platform. Therefore, the data are queried on the platform itself, preventing access to data in the external provider system in every request.
In order to update the data of the copy created on the platform, it is necessary to define the synchronization frequency on the Task Scheduler.
Basic Path
01. From the main menu, click on Control panel.
02. In the General tab, click on Datasets.
03. View all datasets that have been exported to the platform.
