External Tables and External Dictionaries tabs in Text Analytics run configuration

When external tables and external dictionaries are defined in AQL code or in imported modules, the Text Analytics run configuration allows them to be mapped to appropriate files before you run the extractor over a data collection.

In addition to the Main tab, the Run configuration page has two tabs:
External Tables tab
Lists all of the external tables that are defined in the selected modules in the Main tab, and all imported modules that are required by the selected modules. By using this tab, you can map these tables to CSV files that are present in the workspace or in the local file system.
External Dictionaries tab
This tab lists all of the external dictionaries that are defined in modules, selected in the Main tab, and the imported modules that are required by the selected modules. By using this tab, you can map these dictionaries to dictionary files that are present in the workspace or in the local file system.

For any external artifacts that are defined as not being allowed to be empty, a red asterisk is marked against them if files are not mapped to them. The Run is disabled for such configurations. When files are assigned to such artifacts, the red asterisk is replaced by a black asterisk. The Run is enabled after all of these artifacts are assigned a file.

The External Tables and External Dictionaries tabs are not relevant to non-modular Text Analytics projects and are disabled when such projects are selected in the Main tab of the Run configuration.
