Basic workflow
Here's a typical interaction pattern for creating a data structure.
1. Get context
Always ensure get_context
is called at the start of your conversation. If you don't see it happen, then ask for it.
Please call get_context before we start working.
The assistant will retrieve the built-in schema and rules that define how Snowplow components should be structured. This provides the structural templates and requirements for your tracking implementation.
2. Create a data structure
Create a data structure for tracking when users view a product page.
Include properties for product ID, product name, category, and price.
The assistant will:
- Generate a proper UUID for the data structure
- Create a valid event schema following Snowplow conventions
- Save the file locally to the appropriate location
Note: Files are created locally only. Use snowplow-cli data-structures publish
to sync to Console when ready.
3. Validate (automatic)
The assistant should automatically call validate_data_structures
on the created file and report any validation issues.
4. Iterate if needed
The price should be optional, not required.
Also add a description field.
The assistant will modify the structure and re-validate.
5. Data product creation
Create a data product for ecommerce product interactions. Include:
- The existing product page views
- Add to cart events
- A source application for our website
- Proper validation of all components
The assistant will:
- Create the necessary data structures for events (locally)
- Create a source application definition (locally)
- Create a data product linking everything together (locally)
- Validate all components together (including cross-references)
6. Publish to Console
Use snowplow-cli data-structures publish
and snowplow-cli data-products publish
to push changes to Console.
