Editing Mastered Entity Attribute Values

You can override attribute values. You can also change or remove an attribute override.

You can override Tamr Cloud-computed entity attribute values for the data products to which you have access. When overriding an attribute value, you can either select a value from one of the entity's source records or enter a manual value.

Tamr Cloud automatically updates mastered entity data with the override value. Overrides persist when the mastering flow is re-run. The override value is also included in exported data.

As a best practice, when you override any attribute values of a record, Tamr recommends you also verify the record as belonging to its correct cluster.

To override attribute values:

  1. Open your data product.
  2. On the Entities tab, select the row for the entity to update.
    You can sort and filter the table to find specific entities.
  3. In the Attribute Overrides page, select edit in the Override column for the attribute value to update.
  4. Select the appropriate source record or null value from the dropdown or enter a new value.
  5. Save the change.

The new value is listed in the field's Override column. The attribute row also includes the user who created the override, the modification date, and the source dataset for the override value. If the override value was entered manually and is not from a source dataset, the Source of Override value is a dash (--).

To change or remove attribute overrides:

  1. Open your data product.
  2. On the Entities tab, select the row for the entity to update.
  3. On the Attribute Overrides page, select Edit edit icon in the Override column for the attribute value to update.
  4. Change the value for the field or select Remove Override.
  5. Save the change.

In the top right corner, select Back to Viewing All Data to return to the main data table.
