# Arize Dataset Skill
|
||||
|
||||
> **`SPACE`** — All `--space` flags and the `ARIZE_SPACE` env var accept a space **name** (e.g., `my-workspace`) or a base64 space **ID** (e.g., `U3BhY2U6...`). Find yours with `ax spaces list`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
- **Dataset** = a versioned collection of examples used for evaluation and experimentation
|
||||
- **Dataset Version** = a snapshot of a dataset at a point in time; updates can be in-place or create a new version
|
||||
- **Example** = a single record in a dataset with arbitrary user-defined fields (e.g., `question`, `answer`, `context`)
|
||||
- **Space** = an organizational container; datasets belong to a space
|
||||
|
||||
System-managed fields on examples (`id`, `created_at`, `updated_at`) are auto-generated by the server -- never include them in create or append payloads.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
Proceed directly with the task — run the `ax` command you need. Do NOT check versions, env vars, or profiles upfront.
|
||||
|
||||
If an `ax` command fails, troubleshoot based on the error:
|
||||
- `command not found` or version error → see references/ax-setup.md
|
||||
- `401 Unauthorized` / missing API key → run `ax profiles show` to inspect the current profile. If the profile is missing or the API key is wrong, follow references/ax-profiles.md to create/update it. If the user doesn't have their key, direct them to https://app.arize.com/admin > API Keys
|
||||
- Space unknown → run `ax spaces list` to pick by name, or ask the user
|
||||
- Project unclear → ask the user, or run `ax projects list -o json --limit 100` and present as selectable options
|
||||
- **Security:** Never read `.env` files or search the filesystem for credentials. Use `ax profiles` for Arize credentials and `ax ai-integrations` for LLM provider keys. If credentials are not available through these channels, ask the user.
|
||||
|
||||
## List Datasets: `ax datasets list`
|
||||
|
||||
Browse datasets in a space. Output goes to stdout.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets list
|
||||
ax datasets list --space SPACE --limit 20
|
||||
ax datasets list --cursor CURSOR_TOKEN
|
||||
ax datasets list -o json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `--space` | string | from profile | Filter by space |
|
||||
| `--limit, -l` | int | 15 | Max results (1-100) |
|
||||
| `--cursor` | string | none | Pagination cursor from previous response |
|
||||
| `-o, --output` | string | table | Output format: table, json, csv, parquet, or file path |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
## Get Dataset: `ax datasets get`
|
||||
|
||||
Quick metadata lookup -- returns dataset name, space, timestamps, and version list.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets get NAME_OR_ID
|
||||
ax datasets get NAME_OR_ID -o json
|
||||
ax datasets get NAME_OR_ID --space SPACE # required when using dataset name instead of ID
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `NAME_OR_ID` | string | required | Dataset name or ID (positional) |
|
||||
| `--space` | string | none | Space name or ID (required if using dataset name instead of ID) |
|
||||
| `-o, --output` | string | table | Output format |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
### Response fields
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Type | Description |
|
||||
|-------|------|-------------|
|
||||
| `id` | string | Dataset ID |
|
||||
| `name` | string | Dataset name |
|
||||
| `space_id` | string | Space this dataset belongs to |
|
||||
| `created_at` | datetime | When the dataset was created |
|
||||
| `updated_at` | datetime | Last modification time |
|
||||
| `versions` | array | List of dataset versions (id, name, dataset_id, created_at, updated_at) |
|
||||
|
||||
## Export Dataset: `ax datasets export`
|
||||
|
||||
Download all examples to a file. Use `--all` for datasets larger than 500 examples (unlimited bulk export).
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID
|
||||
# -> dataset_abc123_20260305_141500/examples.json
|
||||
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --all
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --version-id VERSION_ID
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --output-dir ./data
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --stdout
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --stdout | jq '.[0]'
|
||||
ax datasets export NAME_OR_ID --space SPACE # required when using dataset name instead of ID
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `NAME_OR_ID` | string | required | Dataset name or ID (positional) |
|
||||
| `--space` | string | none | Space name or ID (required if using dataset name instead of ID) |
|
||||
| `--version-id` | string | latest | Export a specific dataset version |
|
||||
| `--all` | bool | false | Unlimited bulk export (use for datasets > 500 examples) |
|
||||
| `--output-dir` | string | `.` | Output directory |
|
||||
| `--stdout` | bool | false | Print JSON to stdout instead of file |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
**Agent auto-escalation rule:** If an export returns exactly 500 examples, the result is likely truncated — re-run with `--all` to get the full dataset.
|
||||
|
||||
**Export completeness verification:** After exporting, confirm the row count matches what the server reports:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get the server-reported count from dataset metadata
|
||||
ax datasets get DATASET_NAME --space SPACE -o json | jq '.versions[-1] | {version: .id, examples: .example_count}'
|
||||
|
||||
# Compare to what was exported
|
||||
jq 'length' dataset_*/examples.json
|
||||
|
||||
# If counts differ, re-export with --all
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Output is a JSON array of example objects. Each example has system fields (`id`, `created_at`, `updated_at`) plus all user-defined fields:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
[
|
||||
{
|
||||
"id": "ex_001",
|
||||
"created_at": "2026-01-15T10:00:00Z",
|
||||
"updated_at": "2026-01-15T10:00:00Z",
|
||||
"question": "What is 2+2?",
|
||||
"answer": "4",
|
||||
"topic": "math"
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Dataset: `ax datasets create`
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new dataset from a data file.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space SPACE --file data.csv
|
||||
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space SPACE --file data.json
|
||||
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space SPACE --file data.jsonl
|
||||
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space SPACE --file data.parquet
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Required | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|----------|-------------|
|
||||
| `--name, -n` | string | yes | Dataset name |
|
||||
| `--space` | string | yes | Space to create the dataset in |
|
||||
| `--file, -f` | path | yes | Data file: CSV, JSON, JSONL, or Parquet |
|
||||
| `-o, --output` | string | no | Output format for the returned dataset metadata |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | no | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
### Passing data via stdin
|
||||
|
||||
Use `--file -` to pipe data directly — no temp file needed:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
echo '[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]' | ax datasets create --name "my-dataset" --space SPACE --file -
|
||||
|
||||
# Or with a heredoc
|
||||
ax datasets create --name "my-dataset" --space SPACE --file - << 'EOF'
|
||||
[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To add rows to an existing dataset, use `ax datasets append --json '[...]'` instead — no file needed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Supported file formats
|
||||
|
||||
| Format | Extension | Notes |
|
||||
|--------|-----------|-------|
|
||||
| CSV | `.csv` | Column headers become field names |
|
||||
| JSON | `.json` | Array of objects |
|
||||
| JSON Lines | `.jsonl` | One object per line (NOT a JSON array) |
|
||||
| Parquet | `.parquet` | Column names become field names; preserves types |
|
||||
|
||||
**Format gotchas:**
|
||||
- **CSV**: Loses type information — dates become strings, `null` becomes empty string. Use JSON/Parquet to preserve types.
|
||||
- **JSONL**: Each line is a separate JSON object. A JSON array (`[{...}, {...}]`) in a `.jsonl` file will fail — use `.json` extension instead.
|
||||
- **Parquet**: Preserves column types. Requires `pandas`/`pyarrow` to read locally: `pd.read_parquet("examples.parquet")`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Append Examples: `ax datasets append`
|
||||
|
||||
Add examples to an existing dataset. Two input modes -- use whichever fits.
|
||||
|
||||
### Inline JSON (agent-friendly)
|
||||
|
||||
Generate the payload directly -- no temp files needed:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --json '[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]'
|
||||
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --json '[
|
||||
{"question": "What is gravity?", "answer": "A fundamental force..."},
|
||||
{"question": "What is light?", "answer": "Electromagnetic radiation..."}
|
||||
]'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### From a file
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --file new_examples.csv
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --file additions.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### To a specific version
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --json '[{"q": "..."}]' --version-id VERSION_ID
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Required | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|----------|-------------|
|
||||
| `NAME_OR_ID` | string | yes | Dataset name or ID (positional); add `--space` when using name |
|
||||
| `--space` | string | no | Space name or ID (required if using dataset name instead of ID) |
|
||||
| `--json` | string | mutex | JSON array of example objects |
|
||||
| `--file, -f` | path | mutex | Data file (CSV, JSON, JSONL, Parquet) |
|
||||
| `--version-id` | string | no | Append to a specific version (default: latest) |
|
||||
| `-o, --output` | string | no | Output format for the returned dataset metadata |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | no | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
Exactly one of `--json` or `--file` is required.
|
||||
|
||||
### Validation
|
||||
|
||||
- Each example must be a JSON object with at least one user-defined field
|
||||
- Maximum 100,000 examples per request
|
||||
|
||||
**Schema validation before append:** If the dataset already has examples, inspect its schema before appending to avoid silent field mismatches:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check existing field names in the dataset
|
||||
ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --stdout | jq '.[0] | keys'
|
||||
|
||||
# Verify your new data has matching field names
|
||||
echo '[{"question": "..."}]' | jq '.[0] | keys'
|
||||
|
||||
# Both outputs should show the same user-defined fields
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Fields are free-form: extra fields in new examples are added, and missing fields become null. However, typos in field names (e.g., `queston` vs `question`) create new columns silently -- verify spelling before appending.
|
||||
|
||||
## Delete Dataset: `ax datasets delete`
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ax datasets delete NAME_OR_ID
|
||||
ax datasets delete NAME_OR_ID --space SPACE # required when using dataset name instead of ID
|
||||
ax datasets delete NAME_OR_ID --force # skip confirmation prompt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Flags
|
||||
|
||||
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `NAME_OR_ID` | string | required | Dataset name or ID (positional) |
|
||||
| `--space` | string | none | Space name or ID (required if using dataset name instead of ID) |
|
||||
| `--force, -f` | bool | false | Skip confirmation prompt |
|
||||
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
### Find a dataset by name
|
||||
|
||||
All dataset commands accept a name or ID directly. You can pass a dataset name as the positional argument (add `--space SPACE` when not using an ID):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Use name directly
|
||||
ax datasets get "eval-set-v1" --space SPACE
|
||||
ax datasets export "eval-set-v1" --space SPACE
|
||||
|
||||
# Or resolve name to ID via list if you need the base64 ID
|
||||
ax datasets list -o json | jq '.[] | select(.name == "eval-set-v1") | .id'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create a dataset from file for evaluation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Prepare a CSV/JSON/Parquet file with your evaluation columns (e.g., `input`, `expected_output`)
|
||||
- If generating data inline, pipe it via stdin using `--file -` (see the Create Dataset section)
|
||||
2. `ax datasets create --name "eval-set-v1" --space SPACE --file eval_data.csv`
|
||||
3. Verify: `ax datasets get DATASET_NAME --space SPACE`
|
||||
4. Use the dataset name to run experiments
|
||||
|
||||
### Add examples to an existing dataset
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find the dataset
|
||||
ax datasets list --space SPACE
|
||||
|
||||
# Append inline or from a file using the dataset name (see Append Examples section for full syntax)
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --json '[{"question": "...", "answer": "..."}]'
|
||||
ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --file additional_examples.csv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Download dataset for offline analysis
|
||||
|
||||
1. `ax datasets list --space SPACE` -- find the dataset name
|
||||
2. `ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE` -- download to file
|
||||
3. Parse the JSON: `jq '.[] | .question' dataset_*/examples.json`
|
||||
|
||||
### Export a specific version
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# List versions
|
||||
ax datasets get DATASET_NAME --space SPACE -o json | jq '.versions'
|
||||
|
||||
# Export that version
|
||||
ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --version-id VERSION_ID
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Iterate on a dataset
|
||||
|
||||
1. Export current version: `ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE`
|
||||
2. Modify the examples locally
|
||||
3. Append new rows: `ax datasets append DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --file new_rows.csv`
|
||||
4. Or create a fresh version: `ax datasets create --name "eval-set-v2" --space SPACE --file updated_data.json`
|
||||
|
||||
### Pipe export to other tools
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Count examples
|
||||
ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --stdout | jq 'length'
|
||||
|
||||
# Extract a single field
|
||||
ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --stdout | jq '.[].question'
|
||||
|
||||
# Convert to CSV with jq
|
||||
ax datasets export DATASET_NAME --space SPACE --stdout | jq -r '.[] | [.question, .answer] | @csv'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Dataset Example Schema
|
||||
|
||||
Examples are free-form JSON objects. There is no fixed schema -- columns are whatever fields you provide. System-managed fields are added by the server:
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Type | Managed by | Notes |
|
||||
|-------|------|-----------|-------|
|
||||
| `id` | string | server | Auto-generated UUID. Required on update, forbidden on create/append |
|
||||
| `created_at` | datetime | server | Immutable creation timestamp |
|
||||
| `updated_at` | datetime | server | Auto-updated on modification |
|
||||
| *(any user field)* | any JSON type | user | String, number, boolean, null, nested object, array |
|
||||
|
||||

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
| Problem | Solution |
|
||||
|---------|----------|
|
||||
| `ax: command not found` | See references/ax-setup.md |
|
||||
| `401 Unauthorized` | API key is wrong, expired, or doesn't have access to this space. Fix the profile using references/ax-profiles.md. |
|
||||
| `No profile found` | No profile is configured. See references/ax-profiles.md to create one. |
|
||||
| `Dataset not found` | Verify dataset ID with `ax datasets list` |
|
||||
| `File format error` | Supported: CSV, JSON, JSONL, Parquet. Use `--file -` to read from stdin. |
|
||||
| `platform-managed column` | Remove `id`, `created_at`, `updated_at` from create/append payloads |
|
||||
| `reserved column` | Remove `time`, `count`, or any `source_record_*` field |
|
||||
| `Provide either --json or --file` | Append requires exactly one input source |
|
||||
| `Examples array is empty` | Ensure your JSON array or file contains at least one example |
|
||||
| `not a JSON object` | Each element in the `--json` array must be a `{...}` object, not a string or number |
