How to migrate Workbench jobs to new server safely?
I will be decommissioning my server Domo Workbench runs on and need to migrate all jobs to a new machine. The current Workbench has jobs that run as frequently as every 60 minutes. I figured I could just export/import the jobs/settings, and leave them in a disabled state on the new server, test my connections to Domo, then…
Safe to run Workbench on multiple machines?
I use Domo Workbench on-prem to upload data from 2 SQL Servers nightly via ODBC connections. I need to move one of the SQL Servers from on-prem to an AWS EC2 instance. Rather than pulling this data from AWS to my on-prem environment just to then upload to Domo, can I install Workbench on the AWS EC2 instance and move the…
Workbench security question
Hi all, I am using Workbench on an on premise server. What I wanted to understand is if because of this….is all of the data on my server only on the server? Or is the data still being uploaded to the cloud?
Can Domo Workbench Support TCP/IP Over SSH for Secure Database Connections?
Hi everyone, I'm working with Domo Workbench on a remote desktop (RDP) and need to securely connect to a MySQL database hosted on a private network. Typically, this is done via a TCP/IP connection over SSH, which adds an extra layer of security by encrypting the connection between the client and the database. However, I'm…
Run Workbench Button
Is there a way to create a button as a card to run a job in the workbench? For example, I'm currently running QB Desktop through the workbench and the accounting team would like to be able to run manually by hand the dataset while they are closing out the month. I don't want them to have to login into the workbench and…
Search/Replace Transform Editor
I was excited to check out the functionality of this when I thought I could apply changes to the values in my source dataset before loading to the target, which in my case is a SQL Server table. However, the only columns available for transforming are the log columns for the writeback process itself, as shown here (not…
Direct Query against on-prem source
Can Domo perform a direct query against an on-prem SQL Server instance? For example, if I have a database named "SalesDB" on my local SQL Server, can Domo connect to it and run a query like "SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE OrderDate > '2024-01-01'" directly? I thought workbench would've have that option.
Truncate Appended Domo Workbench Dataset
We have some datasets on our Domo Workbench setup as Appends. They have grown very large over time as they take a snapshot of the data daily. The datasets are still used but we no longer need the complete history. We would like to do something like keep the last 2 years or maybe keep one reading per month or something…
Workbench Extremely Slow Out Of Nowhere
Hello All, One specific dataset for some reason has started to "crawl" when processing. It used to take anywhere from 5-10min to process but now it is only processing around 3k rows every 5 min. Any idea where to begin to look for a reason of this to all of a sudden happen? We have this on a 2-hour schedule so since it…
Partitioning for Dummies?
Can someone point me to a good step by step guide to setting up partitioning in Workbench 5.2? I have a very large dataset (currently 5.8 million rows) that gets updated daily with a full replace. As you can imagine it takes a HOT MINUTE to run. On average there are 12.5k new records and 100 records updated or deleted…
