Run a data profile - Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio

Run a data profile

To run a data profile, open a table asset in the data catalog and choose the Data profile tab.

To run a profile

  1. On the Data profile tab, choose Run data profile.

    The Data profile tab showing the Run data profile button.

  2. Configure the profile scope:

    • Rows: Choose to profile all rows or a percentage-based sample.

    • Columns: Choose to profile all columns or select specific columns.

    • Preprocessing query (optional): Enter a custom SQL query (instead of choosing rows/columns) to filter or transform data before profiling. The query must be a read-only SELECT statement.

  3. Choose Run data profile.

    Run data profile configuration options showing rows, columns, and preprocessing query fields.

The profile runs asynchronously. You can view progress on the Data profile tab and cancel an in-flight run if needed. By default, this will run a one-time profile job and create a snapshot of results. You can also schedule profile runs to execute automatically at regular intervals. For more information, see Schedule profile runs.
