General settings

The General Settings page allows you to configure foundational settings for your organization in Soda Cloud. These settings impact how your organization operates and how users interact with the platform.

Organization name

Set the name of your organization. This name appears throughout Soda Cloud, such as in dashboards, reports and notifications.

Allow "Login As"

Enable the Login As feature to allow the Soda Support team to log in as an admin within your organization. This can be useful when troubleshooting issues or providing assistance.

Enable or disable the Soda-hosted Agent

You can choose whether to use the Soda-hosted Agent by enabling or disabling it in the Organization Settings:

  • Toggle the Soda-hosted Agent option to enable or disable the agent for your organization.

  • Disabling the agent prevents Soda Cloud from running scans or checks via the managed agent. You’ll need to use a self-hosted agent or Soda Core in your environment instead.

Profiling data collection

Soda can collect dataset profiling information, such as column-level statistics, and display it in Soda Cloud to help users better understand the datasets they are working with.

Read more about profiling.

If you prefer not to send profiling data to Soda Cloud, you can disable this feature for your organization. Toggle Profiling Data Collection to turn profiling off.

This ensures that no profiling information is collected or pushed to Soda Cloud. Only check and monitor results, along with the dataset schema required for Data Contract and Metric Monitoring, will be processed.

You can also manage access to profiling information at the dataset level in Soda Cloud by configuring dataset-level permissions and applying row-level access controls where supported.
