Exploring the Data
Module 2
This module is focused on showing users how to explore their data using two of the main features within
- ClearQuery - Automated Insights and Data Exploration.
- Automated Insights provides immediate analysis of the user’s imported data. The data is analyzed by ClearQuery in real time during the upload process and then displayed (via intuitive charts or graphs) using interesting categorical or numerical comparisons.
- Data Exploration allows users to manually explore their dataset via filters and keyword search, exploring each field within the raw record itself.
Tasks
This Walkthrough video is broken out as tasks below. Feel free to follow along or complete the tasks on your own to get comfortable with uploading a dataset.
Task 1
Review charts and graphs provided within Automated Insights. Sometimes the exact chart you want to add to a dashboard or display in a presentation has been preconfigured for you:
Example:
Task 2
