Data Monitors functionality is available via MCP — connect your AI assistant to Datafold and manage monitors directly from your development environment.
Datafold supports all your monitoring needs through a variety of different monitor types:
  1. Data Diff → Detect differences between any two datasets, within or across databases
  2. Metric → Identify anomalies in standard metrics like row count, freshness, and cardinality, or in any custom metric
  3. Data Test → Validate your data with business rules and see specific records that fail your tests
  4. Schema Change → Receive alerts when a table schema changes
If you need help creating your first few monitors, deciding which type of monitor to use in a particular situation, or developing an overall monitoring strategy, please reach out via email (support@datafold.com) and our team of experts will be happy to assist.
