The Limit tool can be used to reduce the size of your dataset. It can be useful if you’re working with large datasets and want to increase the performance while you’re building your model. Once you’re model is ready for production, you can always remove the Limit tool again to ensure that your model is using the full dataset.

​
Configuration

The Filter tool consists of a single step.

Input Row Limit

All you have to do is input the number of rows you would like to reduce you dataset to.

When To Use

The primary use case of the Limit tool is temporary. The primary use cases are
  • To increase the speed and performance while you’re building a model and then remove the Limit tool before scheduling the model.
  • To limit your dataset while you’re testing APIs with the API tool. The API sends an API call for each row in your dataset so it can be very beneficial to limit to a single row of data with the Limit tool while you’re testing.
