About Data Set rules
 

Data sets define collections of records, allowing you to set up instances that make use of data abstraction to represent data stored in different sources and formats. Depending on the type selected when creating a new instance, data sets represent VBD data sources, data in database tables or data in decision data stores. Through the data management operations for each data set type, you can read, insert and remove records. Data sets are used on their own through data management operations, as part of combined data streams in decision data flows and, in the case of VBD data sources, also used in interaction rules when writing results to VBD.

Besides from data sets you define in your application, there are two default data sets:

• pxInteractionHistory
  • Class: Data-pxStrategyResult
  • This data set is represents Interaction History results. It is used to write the captured response information to the Interaction History data store through activities or data flows.
• pxAdaptiveAnalytics
  • Class: Data-pxStrategyResult
  • This data set represents adaptive inputs. It is used to update the adaptive data store through activities or data flows.

Available in applications that have access to the Decision Management rule sets or in applications built on PegaDM.

Where referenced

Data sets are referenced in data flows and, through the DataSet-Execute method, in activities.

Access

Use the Application Explorer or Records Explorer to access your application's data set instances.

Category

Data set instances are part of the Data Model category. A data set rule is an instance of the Rule-Decision-DataSet rule type.
