This task assumes you are in the transformation canvas of the
PDI client.
You can create an annotation group and save
it locally.
- Complete steps 1-3 in the Use the Annotate Stream step.
- Select Local. Your annotation group will only be saved into your transformation. Any user running this transformation can see and use the annotations group.
- Click Select Fields to begin creating annotations to populate the group. See steps 6-8 in Use the Annotate Stream step for more information on selecting and annotating fields.
- When you are done, click Apply to save your annotation group locally.
If you later decide that you want to share the annotation
group, you can reopen it and select the Shared radio button, then
click Apply. The group will then be shared to the metastore and
be available to other users.
