Updating your data model
Maintain data integrity by updating your data model when changes occur.
- Renaming a data object
Rename a data object to align its purpose with the label that users see in your data model.
- Changing the type of a field
To store data in a different format, change the type of a field.
- Deleting a data object
Remove data objects from your data model that are no longer relevant.
- Adding records to a data object
Define the data to populate the fields in a data object by adding a record.
- Deleting data records in bulk
To remove data records more quickly, make your changes in bulk by importing a .csv file.
- Managing your data model through SQL
Insert, update, and delete records through activities that use ExecuteRDB SQL API. The ExecuteRDB SQL API directly inserts records in your database without requiring you to create a data object in Pega Platform.
- Managing the database by using data types
Add database columns and change the database column length by using the Data Type explorer in Dev Studio and the Integration Designer in App Studio. By updating the Pega Platform database through Data Types, you can use the same functionality as by updating your database directly. Updating your database through data types gives Pega Cloud clients another option to manage their database.
