This source is not modified within the application datasource and can be used in multiple datasets. It is important to note that when you use Trifacta to wrangle a source, or file, the original file is not modified – therefore, it can be used over and over – to prepare output in multiple ways, for example. Datasources are created in the Datasources Page, or when a new dataset is created. There are two ways to add a datasource to your Trifacta instance: You can locate and select a file in HDFS – HDFS stands for Hadoop File System. You can use the file browser to locate and select the file. You can also upload a local file from your machine. Note that there is a 1 GB file size limit for local files. Several file formats are supported: CSV LOG JSON AVRO EXCEL – Note that if you upload an Excel file with multiple worksheets, each worksheet will be imported as a separate source.
