i created an empty datahub instance with 0.8.17, I don’t see the datasets tab at all, is this expected
p
You need to ingest metadata to see the categories.

thanks @polite-flower-25924

@green-football-43791 is this expected behavior?
g
Hmm- this is unexpected. A few default entities should show up. Did you see this repeatedly @red-pizza-28006? Or just on the first load? I wonder if an API call just timed out 🤔
e
cc @big-carpet-38439 This is expected. Once you ingest, you will start seeing the cards as @polite-flower-25924 mentioned

This is why we need a better "empty state" here
r
yeah this was every time when i did not have any datasets. I am not so sure about this choice, since it gave an impression of something wrong with the UI
b
I deployed by the first time during the las weekend, same feeling here 😃. Also just wanted to work with glossary terms so was looking for a method to add elements from the frontend.
r
i liked the previous version where we had some empty clickable elements in the UI. 🙂

Thanks for the feedback folks
@billions-twilight-48559 currently the recommended way to load up biz glossary terms is via an ingestion source pointing to a YAML file where the glossary is declared
@red-pizza-28006 what if we put a better empty state here that says ‘ no metadata ingested yet ‘ and links out to resources about how to ingest?
Would that be better? We think that having empty cards that lead to nowhere is maybe a worse experience. And some companies don’t even use all the entities so we didn’t want to show all of them on the home page
r
i think clearly stating that there is no metadata ingested yet, and having no cards would be a much better experience
b
Agree. We’ll plan for that
