Object Explorer Overview

Source: https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/object-explorer/overview/ Captured during the ontology-parity effort. Concrete feature taxonomy only.

Search & discovery

  • Text search — keyword search + comprehensive property filters (dedicated search-syntax + text-search docs).
  • Property filtering — property-based constraints to locate matching objects.

Analysis & visualization

  • Charting — preset and configurable visualizations within the exploration view.
  • SQL-based analysis — programmatic querying of result sets.
  • Tabular display — standard data-grid presentation of object sets.

Object-set operations

  • Comparison — compare and contrast object sets.
  • Bulk actions — apply actions (e.g. writeback) on a whole object set.
  • Link traversal (pivot) — pivot to explore linked objects, navigating relationships within result sets.

Data management

  • Saved explorations & lists — save explorations / object lists and revisit; both retain latest results on re-access.
  • Export & integration — open results in other compatible applications (e.g. Quiver); export for external use.
