02/29/2024, 5:33 PMHi team! I am updating dataset descriptions via graphQL, and I can see them update correctly on UI. But when I query the description on graphQL, the description is not updated. How can I get the most up-to-date descriptions?

02/29/2024, 5:34 PMBelow, I see the same description from UI and querying using GraphQL: "table containing all the users deleted on a single day"
Copy code
query readDescription {
dataset(urn: "urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_deleted,PROD)") {
properties {
description
}
}
} Copy code
{
"data": {
"dataset": {
"properties": {
"description": "table containing all the users deleted on a single day"
}
}
},
"extensions": {}

02/29/2024, 5:37 PMBelow, I update the description to "This is a new description.", which gets updated on UI, but using GraphQL query I still receive the old description.
Copy code
mutation updateDataset {
updateDataset(
urn:"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_deleted,PROD)",
input: {
editableProperties: {
description: "This is a new description."
}
}
) {
urn
}
} Copy code
query readDescription {
dataset(urn: "urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_deleted,PROD)") {
properties {
description
}
}
} Copy code
{
"data": {
"dataset": {
"properties": {
"description": "table containing all the users deleted on a single day"
}
}
},
"extensions": {}
}r

02/29/2024, 6:25 PMHiya! This is because DataHub always maintains 2 distinct descriptions - one from the underlying system and another that is "editable" inside of DataHub. (properties.description and editableProperties.description), respectively.
Please use the editableProperties.description field to read the DataHub-native description that was edited in the UI
