• Targets are applied only after initial type inferencing has been applied to the loaded dataset. 

  Tip
  Tip: As needed, you can disable initial type inferencing when data is imported into the product. See Import Data Page.

• Type-based matching applies a settype transform to any selected column. No pattern matching or standardization is applied. For more information, see Overview of Pattern Matching.

• Changes to the underlying objects of a target schema are not reflected in the schema. A target schema is a snapshot of the object at the time of its creation. To update, delete the target and create a new one. 

  Tip
  Tip: If your target schema source is a recipe, then you can modify the recipe as needed and use it as your target again.
