Dataset Management

Dataset Management lets you review the object types a source collects and control how the source aggregates those objects into SailPoint. Use Dataset Management to view and manage resource attributes, datasets and their resources, enable dataset aggregation schedules, perform manual aggregation, and view aggregation history.

Note

Datasets are also available in SailPoint Agentic Fabric. Contact your Customer Success team and refer to SailPoint Agentic Fabric for more information.

For more information, refer to Managing Datasets and Resources for datasets, resources, owner correlation, and aggregation.

Datasets

A dataset is a named group of one or more related resources that the source aggregates together.

When aggregation runs for a dataset, the source collects all resources in that dataset from the managed system in one aggregation job. Activate or deactivate aggregation at the dataset level, not for individual resources.

Note

Each resource belongs to exactly one dataset for that source. The source defines which resources belong to each dataset. You can enable aggregation and review associated resources, but you cannot create or delete datasets or move resources between them.

Dataset Aggregation

Configure aggregation on the Dataset Aggregations tab for each dataset. Configure each dataset separately. During aggregation, your owner correlation rules are automatically applied to link machine identities to their human owners. For more information, refer to Configuring Dataset Aggregations.

Resources

A resource defines an object type from the managed system. It specifies the kind of object, the attributes the source collects, and how the source identifies and displays each object. Resources form the building blocks of the data model.

In the UI, each resource appears under Dataset Management > Resources with its schema. A resource does not run aggregation by itself. The dataset that owns the resource collects it during aggregation.

For more information, refer to Managing Resources.

Owner Correlation

Configure owner correlation on each resource to link aggregated objects to human owners. If you do not configure owner correlation, or if the mapping produces no match, an owner is not assigned. For more information, refer to Configuring Owner Correlation.

Supported Datasets

Go to Dataset Management > Datasets on your Snowflake SaaS source to view the datasets the connector aggregates. Select a dataset to review its associated resources and configure aggregation.

Note

Configure aggregation for each dataset separately. For more information, refer to Dataset Aggregation.

The connector uses datasets to schedule aggregation of the following resource types:

Dataset Resource Type Associated Resources
Snowflake Cortex Agents Agent Snowflake Cortex Agent
Snowflake Cortex Agents Capability Cortex MCP Server, Cortex Skill, Cortex Analyst, Cortex Search, Cortex Generic Tool, Cortex Web Search, Cortex Data to Chart, Cortex Code Execution

Supported Resources

A resource represents a type of object the connector collects from Snowflake, such as Cortex agents, MCP servers, or skills. Each resource defines the attributes collected for that object type, such as name, ID, or status, and how each object appears in SailPoint.

For more information, refer to Managing Resources.

Note

When you enable dataset aggregation for a selected dataset, all resources in that dataset are collected at once. Activate or deactivate aggregation at the dataset level, not for individual resources.

Under Dataset Management > Resources, the Snowflake source lists each object type the connector aggregates. Select a resource to review its schema on the Schema tab.

The Snowflake Cortex Agents dataset contains the following resources:

Resource Name Resource Type Resource ID
Snowflake Cortex Agent Agent snowflake:cortex-agent
Cortex MCP Server Capability snowflake:cortex-mcp-server
Cortex Skill Capability snowflake:cortex-skill
Cortex Analyst Capability snowflake:cortex-analyst
Cortex Search Capability snowflake:cortex-search
Cortex Generic Tool Capability snowflake:cortex-generic
Cortex Web Search Capability snowflake:cortex-web-search
Cortex Data to Chart Capability snowflake:cortex-data-to-chart
Cortex Code Execution Capability snowflake:cortex-code-execution
