Cut-offs 🚀

Dataflow monitoring can be enabled by defining cut-off rules ensuring that data is in the right place at the right time.

The cut-off function monitors if dataflows are completed within a pre-defined time frame. It is available exclusively for modeled flows. Cut-offs can be set both at dataflow and node level. Head over to this page for details on how to create a cut-off.

You can set Cut-offs either at dataflow level or at node level, but not both! Be aware that you can save Cut-offs at both levels at the same time in DRAFT version dataflows. However, the DRAFTS will not be promoted to MASTER with these settings.

Within Data Watcher, 2 different cut-offs can be configured:

• Duration cut-off: the file must reach a specific status by the end of the time interval. For example, within 2 hours after the beginning of the flow.

• Planned cut-off: the file must reach a specific status within the scheduled time frame. For example, by 10 am.

For each cut-off, a warning message or error message notification can be configured to inform the configured list of recipients that the flow is lasting longer than expected. Learn how to set notifications here.
