Text min length data quality checks, SQL examples

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. DQOps validates the shortest length using a range rule. DQOps raises an issue when the minimum text length is outside a range of accepted values.

---

The text min length data quality check has the following variants for each type of data quality checks supported by DQOps.

profile text min length

Check description

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. Then, it verifies that the minimum length is within an accepted range. It detects that the shortest text is too short.

Data quality check name	Friendly name	Category	Check type	Time scale	Quality dimension	Sensor definition	Quality rule	Standard
profile_text_min_length	Verify that the minimum length of the text column is in the range	text	profiling		Reasonableness	text_min_length	between_ints

Command-line examples

Please expand the section below to see the DQOps command-line examples to run or activate the profile text min length data quality check.

Managing profile text min length check from DQOps shell

Activate the check with a warning ruleActivate the check with an error ruleRun all configured checks

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the warning rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-warning

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-warning

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Wrule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-warning
                    -Wfrom=value

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the error rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-error

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-error

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Erule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=profile_text_min_length --enable-error
                    -Efrom=value

Run this data quality check using the check run CLI command by providing the check name and all other targeting filters. The following example shows how to run the profile_text_min_length check on all tables and columns on a single data source.

dqo> check run -c=data_source_name -ch=profile_text_min_length

It is also possible to run this check on a specific connection and table. In order to do this, use the connection name and the full table name parameters.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -ch=profile_text_min_length

You can also run this check on all tables (and columns) on which the profile_text_min_length check is enabled using patterns to find tables.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name_* -ch=profile_text_min_length

YAML configuration

The sample schema_name.table_name.dqotable.yaml file with the check configured is shown below.

daily text min length

Check description

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. Then, it verifies that the minimum length is within an accepted range. It detects that the shortest text is too short. Stores the most recent captured value for each day when the data quality check was evaluated.

Data quality check name	Friendly name	Category	Check type	Time scale	Quality dimension	Sensor definition	Quality rule	Standard
daily_text_min_length	Verify that the minimum length of the text column is in the range	text	monitoring	daily	Reasonableness	text_min_length	between_ints

Command-line examples

Please expand the section below to see the DQOps command-line examples to run or activate the daily text min length data quality check.

Managing daily text min length check from DQOps shell

Activate the check with a warning ruleActivate the check with an error ruleRun all configured checks

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the warning rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-warning

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-warning

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Wrule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-warning
                    -Wfrom=value

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the error rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-error

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-error

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Erule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_text_min_length --enable-error
                    -Efrom=value

Run this data quality check using the check run CLI command by providing the check name and all other targeting filters. The following example shows how to run the daily_text_min_length check on all tables and columns on a single data source.

dqo> check run -c=data_source_name -ch=daily_text_min_length

It is also possible to run this check on a specific connection and table. In order to do this, use the connection name and the full table name parameters.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -ch=daily_text_min_length

You can also run this check on all tables (and columns) on which the daily_text_min_length check is enabled using patterns to find tables.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name_* -ch=daily_text_min_length

YAML configuration

The sample schema_name.table_name.dqotable.yaml file with the check configured is shown below.

monthly text min length

Check description

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. Then, it verifies that the minimum length is within an accepted range. It detects that the shortest text is too short. Stores the most recent captured value for each month when the data quality check was evaluated.

Data quality check name	Friendly name	Category	Check type	Time scale	Quality dimension	Sensor definition	Quality rule	Standard
monthly_text_min_length	Verify that the minimum length of the text column is in the range	text	monitoring	monthly	Reasonableness	text_min_length	between_ints

Command-line examples

Please expand the section below to see the DQOps command-line examples to run or activate the monthly text min length data quality check.

Managing monthly text min length check from DQOps shell

Activate the check with a warning ruleActivate the check with an error ruleRun all configured checks

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the warning rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-warning

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-warning

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Wrule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-warning
                    -Wfrom=value

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the error rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-error

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-error

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Erule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length --enable-error
                    -Efrom=value

Run this data quality check using the check run CLI command by providing the check name and all other targeting filters. The following example shows how to run the monthly_text_min_length check on all tables and columns on a single data source.

dqo> check run -c=data_source_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length

It is also possible to run this check on a specific connection and table. In order to do this, use the connection name and the full table name parameters.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -ch=monthly_text_min_length

You can also run this check on all tables (and columns) on which the monthly_text_min_length check is enabled using patterns to find tables.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name_* -ch=monthly_text_min_length

YAML configuration

The sample schema_name.table_name.dqotable.yaml file with the check configured is shown below.

daily partition text min length

Check description

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. Then, it verifies that the minimum length is within an accepted range. It detects that the shortest text is too short. Analyzes every daily partition and creates a separate data quality check result with the time period value that identifies the daily partition.

Data quality check name	Friendly name	Category	Check type	Time scale	Quality dimension	Sensor definition	Quality rule	Standard
daily_partition_text_min_length	Verify that the minimum length of the text column is in the range	text	partitioned	daily	Reasonableness	text_min_length	between_ints

Command-line examples

Please expand the section below to see the DQOps command-line examples to run or activate the daily partition text min length data quality check.

Managing daily partition text min length check from DQOps shell

Activate the check with a warning ruleActivate the check with an error ruleRun all configured checks

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the warning rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Wrule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning
                    -Wfrom=value

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the error rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-error

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-error

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Erule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length --enable-error
                    -Efrom=value

Run this data quality check using the check run CLI command by providing the check name and all other targeting filters. The following example shows how to run the daily_partition_text_min_length check on all tables and columns on a single data source.

dqo> check run -c=data_source_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length

It is also possible to run this check on a specific connection and table. In order to do this, use the connection name and the full table name parameters.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length

You can also run this check on all tables (and columns) on which the daily_partition_text_min_length check is enabled using patterns to find tables.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name_* -ch=daily_partition_text_min_length

monthly partition text min length

Check description

This check finds the length of the shortest text in a column. Then, it verifies that the minimum length is within an accepted range. It detects that the shortest text is too short. Analyzes every monthly partition and creates a separate data quality check result with the time period value that identifies the monthly partition.

Data quality check name	Friendly name	Category	Check type	Time scale	Quality dimension	Sensor definition	Quality rule	Standard
monthly_partition_text_min_length	Verify that the minimum length of the text column is in the range	text	partitioned	monthly	Reasonableness	text_min_length	between_ints

Command-line examples

Please expand the section below to see the DQOps command-line examples to run or activate the monthly partition text min length data quality check.

Managing monthly partition text min length check from DQOps shell

Activate the check with a warning ruleActivate the check with an error ruleRun all configured checks

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the warning rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Wrule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-warning
                    -Wfrom=value

Activate this data quality using the check activate CLI command, providing the connection name, table name, check name, and all other filters. Activates the error rule with the default parameters.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-error

You can also use patterns to activate the check on all matching tables and columns.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-error

Additional rule parameters are passed using the -Erule_parameter_name=value.

dqo> check activate -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length --enable-error
                    -Efrom=value

Run this data quality check using the check run CLI command by providing the check name and all other targeting filters. The following example shows how to run the monthly_partition_text_min_length check on all tables and columns on a single data source.

dqo> check run -c=data_source_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length

It is also possible to run this check on a specific connection and table. In order to do this, use the connection name and the full table name parameters.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_name.table_name -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length

You can also run this check on all tables (and columns) on which the monthly_partition_text_min_length check is enabled using patterns to find tables.

dqo> check run -c=connection_name -t=schema_prefix*.fact_* -col=column_name_* -ch=monthly_partition_text_min_length
