Navigation tree
The Navigation tree provides the primary structural view of an AnalyticsCreator repository and helps users browse objects by area, layer, and responsibility.
It is the fastest way to move across repository components, inspect relationships, and open the exact object or configuration area needed during design, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
Available topics
Connectors
Explains how connector objects appear in the tree and how they organize source-system access points.
Deployments
Documents how deployment objects are grouped for release preparation and execution.
Filters
Shows how filter definitions appear in the tree and support selective modeling behavior.
Galaxies
Explains how galaxy structures are represented and accessed from the navigation tree.
Groups
Shows how group structures help organize large repositories and related object collections.
Hierarchies
Shows how hierarchy objects are grouped in the tree for analytical model navigation.
Indexes
Covers where index definitions appear and how they are organized within the repository hierarchy.
Layers
Describes how repository layers structure objects and separate modeling responsibilities across the solution.
Macros
Documents the navigation-tree location of reusable macros and shared logic components.
Models
Explains where model objects appear in the tree and how they anchor business-facing structures.
Object scripts
Covers how object-level scripts are organized for targeted execution and automation tasks.
Packages
Shows how package objects are grouped in the tree for orchestration, movement, and process control.
Parameters
Explains how technical and functional parameters are exposed for repository configuration and reuse.
Partitions
Describes where partition definitions live in the tree and how they support model organization.
Predefined transformations
Explains where predefined transformation templates are stored and accessed from the tree.
Roles
Documents the tree placement of role-related objects used for access and semantic model control.
Snapshots
Describes the tree location of snapshot-related objects used for point-in-time handling.
Transformations
Describes how transformation logic is surfaced in the tree for editing, tracing, and maintenance.
How to use this section
- Use the tree to move quickly between repository object families instead of searching manually across dialogs and designers.
- Start with structural areas such as Layers, Parameters, and Groups when orienting yourself inside a project.
- Use object-specific branches such as Connectors, Packages, Deployments, and Transformations when working on a focused implementation task.
- Use the tree as the operational backbone of the repository, then open individual topics here to understand the behavior of each object area in detail.
Key takeaway
The Navigation tree organizes AnalyticsCreator repository objects into a clear operational hierarchy, making it the central navigation surface for browsing, opening, and managing solution components.
