Fourth DataSift Webinar: Targets

The fourth Training Module of DataSift, “Targets”, is scheduled for this Friday 22nd July, 14:00 BST.

DataSift takes data streams from the most popular social media sites. Targets are the individual elements of information these streams offer. There’s almost no limit to the filtering you can perform. Sign up for the webinar and learn to filter by language, follower count, keywords, geographical location.… You can even filter by the sentiment of posts, positive or negative!

Third DataSift Webinar Video, “Operators”

Here you can watch the entire session of our Third Training Module, “Operators”, including a complete guide of all the possible Operators used in DataSift.

** Operators are functions within DataSift that form part of a Stream Definition. The Operator takes the value of the Target from the Input Object, runs its function against it with the specified Argument, and returns a result.

DataSift Help & Support Presentation Slides

We have just uploaded two new presentations to SlideShare to help guide our users through the process of creating their first stream and also to help our users to find the basic information when they create additional streams and reaching beyond that by enabling them to make the most of our CSDL. (Curated Stream Definition Language)

The first presentation creates a solid foundation for our users to create their first stream and retrieving curated data around a specific subject of their choosing.

The second presentation builds upon the Getting Started with DataSift presentation and shows additional examples of the CSDL and how it can be used.

You can find more information about creating Streams with DataSift in our help documentation which can be found in our Knowledge Base along with in depth detail about our CSDL.
