Important

Data mining was deprecated in SQL Server 2017 Analysis Services and now discontinued in SQL Server 2022 Analysis Services. Documentation is not updated for deprecated and discontinued features. To learn more, see Analysis Services backward compatibility.

There are two kinds of properties on a mining structure, both of which can be modified:

  • Properties of the mining structure that affect the entire structure

  • Properties on individual columns in the structure

Note that some properties are dependent on other property settings. For example, you cannot set properties that control binning behavior (such as DiscretizationMethod or DiscretizationBucketCount) until you have set the data type of the column to Discretized.

For more information about mining structure properties, see Mining Structure Columns.

To change the properties of a mining structure

  1. On the Mining Structure tab in Data Mining Designer, right-click either the mining structure or a column in the mining structure, and then select Properties.

    The Properties window opens on the right side of the screen, if it was not already visible.

  2. In the Properties window, select the value that corresponds to the property that you want to change, and then enter the new value.

    The new value will take effect when you select a different element in the designer.
