is it possible to set metrics during the build

Question

Hi,

 is it possible to set a metrics from a python script instead of DSS calculation? My python script is uploading CSV file into a folder, on top of this folder is a dataset. I have already the record, column count  in the script, so I would like to update these metrics:

'metrics': ['basic:COUNT_COLUMNS',
                'basic:COUNT_FILES',
                'basic:SIZE' ]

Thanks

Hello,

By design, this is not possible as metrics computation is managed by DSS. For setting your custom parameters outside of the DSS managed metrics, we recommend setting dataset metadata: https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/publicapi/client-python/datasets.html#dataikuapi.dss.dataset.DSSDataset.set_metadata
