New Idea

Bionic rule Dataset Tasks need preview option

I understand (conceptually) the move from custom to bionic rules. In my attempt to embrace the change, I went to build a new, one step rule as a bionic rule, rather than a custom rule. It's going to consist of a dataset task and an action.

The number 1 issue I have with this is that I can't preview my data set. Am I returning generally the right data with the filters I have applied?

I had no idea how much I liked/appreciated/needed that simple button until just now!

    Jeff,

    This is planned for fall release. You will be able to preview the results of each dataset task in the Bionic Rule.

    Regards,

    Will it exist in Query Builder as well for Advanced Outreaches?

    That's great news! I've been having to use Custom rules to preview results and then build it out using bionic rules so this will save me some time.

    Hear hear! This ability to Preview would shave a lot of troubleshooting time off Bionic rule construction.

    In the meantime, I did find one bit of help that's live now (and confirmed by Gainsight support). Once you run a rule (Normal or Test mode), you can use the Execution History to see the final dataset Gainsight has compiled before the rule progresses into the Rule Actions.

    While it's not a preview of the intermediate datasets, this does give you a look into the final dataset you've compiled in Gainsight while you're constructing and editing Bionic Rules.

    Follow this path:
    1. Open the Rules Engine
    2. Click your rule (Tip: Do not open it for editing)
    3. Click the Execution History tab
    4. Click the Rule Run
    5. Expand View Logs
    6. Find Get Link.
