How to set the filename of the loaded data as an attribute

oliver23

Hi

 this is probably a very simple thing to do in RapiMiner, but I can not find a way how to do it:

can someone please show me how to set the filename of the loaded data as an attribute ?

Much appreciated !

Hi Oliver,

 

if you read Files with Read Excel or Read CSV or even with a Read Database they have an annotation called source which includes the path. That means you do not forget the original location.

You can add this annotation as a attribute to your table if you want to. Attached is a process demonstrating it.

 

Best,

Martin
