Asset

The Asset is the root container of the OpenBI model. It holds identity information, the visual layout, the semantic data model, refresh schedules, and data source connections for one BI artifact.

Asset

public class Asset
{
    public string? IdSite { get; set; }
    public AssetInfo? Info { get; set; }
    public Layout? Layout { get; set; }
    public DataModel? DataModel { get; set; }
    public List<RefreshTask>? RefreshTasks { get; set; }
    public List<DataSourceConnection>? DataSourceConnections { get; set; }
    public IEnumerable<Asset> Dependencies { get; set; }
}

Property	Type	Description
IdSite	string?	Identifier of the BI site this asset belongs to (matches idSite in sites/*.json)
Info	AssetInfo?	Identity and classification metadata
Layout	Layout?	Visual layer — pages, visuals, projections, filters
DataModel	DataModel?	Semantic layer — tables, columns, relationships
RefreshTasks	List<RefreshTask>?	Scheduled or composite data refresh tasks
DataSourceConnections	List<DataSourceConnection>?	Database / API connections used by this asset
Dependencies	IEnumerable<Asset>	Other assets this asset depends on (e.g. a Report depends on a SemanticModel)

AssetInfo

Carries the identity and classification of an asset, matching what the BI platform exposes in its catalog API.

public class AssetInfo
{
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public string ExternalType { get; set; }
    public string IdFolder { get; set; }
    public string FolderName { get; set; }
    public AssetType Type { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string Description { get; set; }
    public DateTime? LatestUpdate { get; set; }
    public string? LatestUpdater { get; set; }
    public ICollection<AdditionalMetadata>? AdditionalMetadata { get; set; }
}

Property	Type	Description
Id	string	OpenBI asset identifier (maps to the external platform ID)
ExternalType	string	Platform-native type string (e.g. "Report", "SemanticModel", "Dataflow")
IdFolder	string	ID of the folder that contains this asset
FolderName	string	Display name of the folder
Type	AssetType	OpenBI classification enum (Report or DataModel)
Name	string	Asset display name
Description	string	Optional description
LatestUpdate	DateTime?	Last modification timestamp
LatestUpdater	string?	Identity of the last editor
AdditionalMetadata	ICollection<AdditionalMetadata>?	Platform-specific key/value metadata

AssetType

public enum AssetType
{
    Report,
    DataModel
}

Value	Meaning
Report	A presentation layer artifact — dashboards, pages, visuals (reports, sheets, stories, etc.)
DataModel	A semantic / data layer artifact (semantic models, datasets, dataflows, etc.)

Note

ExternalType carries the platform-native name (e.g. "SemanticModel", "Dataflow"), while Type is the normalized OpenBI classification. Both are stored.

---

AssetDependency

Records a directed dependency between two assets: IdAsset requires IdRequiredAsset.

public class AssetDependency
{
    public string IdAsset { get; set; }
    public string IdRequiredAsset { get; set; }
}

Used by the MCP Server when staging an asset graph that contains dependencies (e.g. a Report that references a SemanticModel).

---

AdditionalMetadata

A generic key-value extension point present on every OpenBI entity.

public class AdditionalMetadata
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string Value { get; set; }
}

Converters use AdditionalMetadata to round-trip platform-specific attributes that have no typed field in the OpenBI schema. Examples:

Platform	Key example	Value example
Platform A	formatString	"#,0.00"
Platform B	loadScript	"LOAD * FROM …"

The add_metadata MCP tool writes directly to AssetInfo.AdditionalMetadata.
