Configuring the validation check

By default, the validation check is performed when you launch it manually, when you save any changes to your Data Model, or when you deploy the Data Model to the server. You can configure this behavior in the preferences for the Data Model validation check.

1. Click Window > Preferences.
2. In the Preferences window that opens, expand Talend > MDM and then click Data Model Validation.
3. In the Data Model Validation preferences, select the situations in which you want a validation check to be performed on your Data Model.

   • User initiated validation: Users can launch a check manually.

   • Validation on save: A check is performed when the user saves any changes to the Data Model.

   • Validation on deploy: A check is performed when the user deploys the Data Model to the server.

   If you choose to perform a validation when the user deploys the Data Model to the server, you can also specify what happens if issues are found.
