Data model representation example library

The Sigma programmatic data model API endpoints, including Create a data model from a code representation, Update a data model from a code representation, and Get the code representation of a data model require a specific format for the representation of the data model. This example library shows examples of data model representations for various configurations, using different element types and features in Sigma.

Consult these examples to:

Troubleshoot the formatting of a particular feature in a code representation
Relate a feature from the Sigma UI to its representation in code
Provide context to AI tools used to create data models from code

Example representations

To review a specific representation, search or browse the following examples:

Feature	Link
Data model with a single table	View example
Data model with a table and a calculated column	View example
Data model with a table and a metric	View example
Data model with a metric timeline	View example
Data model with a table and a relationship	View example
Data model with a custom SQL element	View example

💡
To see the representation for a specific configuration or combination of features, you can create the data model in the UI and then retrieve the representation using the Get the code representation of a data model endpoint.
