Incremental refresh dataset

Hello,
I’ve created a dataset with an incremental refresh. I use this dataset in another dataset with other tables from a different database.
I also need to schedule a refresh to the second dataset, right? Is it running only the tables included in the second dataset and not the first one?

Hope that the question is clear.

Thanks in advance, Mia.

Hi @miap,

I think a refresh of the second dataset will only refresh the tables included in the second dataset. My basis to say this is that the SPICE dataset basically stores data. So if you use the first dataset in the second one you are basically querying the stored data in the first dataset.

You could do the following to prove this is the case:
a. Create dataset 1 on a table with a filter criteria so you can get x rows from the table
b. Note down count of rows
c. Create dataset 2 using dataset 1 and an additional table
d. Note down count of rows…I presume this will have the same count as in step b
e. Insert some new rows in the table for the dataset 1 that meets the criteria specified in the dataset so the table has new rows.
f. Refresh dataset 2.
g. Note down count of rows in dataset 2. It should not change since dataset 1 has not been refreshed.
