Upload baseline and production data

Baseline and production data are required to monitor model drift.

Upload baseline data for a model

Baseline data are required to monitor drift. Follow these steps to add or replace baseline data for an existing model. For information on baseline data requirements, go to Requirements for baseline data.
  1. From the Deployments page, select the deployment to open the tabs on the deployment area page.
  2. Open the Models tab.
  3. Open the settings of the model .
  4. Select Upload baseline data or Replace baseline data.
  5. Browse to the file that contains the baseline data and specify which columns to upload for the predicted response and predictors.
  6. Select Upload.
Note

You can also upload baseline data for a model from the model repository.

Baseline data status indicators

From the Models tab in the deployment area, you can see the list of your models and whether they have valid baseline data.

Icon Details
The baseline data upload is valid and you have at least one row of missing or nonmissing values in your baseline data for all predictors in the model.
The baseline data upload is valid but you are missing data for some of the predictors in the model.

Check the System Audit Log area from the left pane navigation to see specific baseline data errors.

Send production data

To score a model, Minitab Model Ops requires new production data. You can create a Minitab Connect table that contains the new predictions, or you can send the data via Python code, a terminal, or a script in a terminal. For help on generating the required code format for prediction requests, see the sample code from the Integration tab.
Note

Prediction requests with prior date/time values beyond three months are not logged; thus, are not available in the drift and stability reports.

For information on production data requirements, go to Requirements for production data.
