Replay Scan
The monitor editor — use Save & Replay to retroactively run the monitor against historical scans.
The Replay feature allows you to retroactively run SQL-based monitors against historical data scans. This enables you to validate new monitor logic against past data and backfill results to identify historical anomalies without waiting for new data to arrive.
Why use Replay? If you create a new Data Quality rule today, Replay lets you see how that rule would have performed over previous scans, providing immediate historical context.
Prerequisites & Availability
To ensure data consistency during historical runs, the Replay feature has specific requirements:
Scope: Available for SQL-based monitors only.
Required Parameter: The monitor's SQL query must contain the @now parameter. This ensures the logic anchors correctly to the specific timestamp of the historical scan.
Triggering a Replay
The Replay flow is initiated exclusively from the Monitor Editor page.
Save & Replay: When saving changes to a monitor, you are presented with two options:
Save: Saves the monitor configuration without a backfill.
Save & Replay: Saves the configuration and opens the replay range selection.
Configuration: Select the historical depth.
Maximum Depth: Up to 20 previous scans.
Actual Limit: Calculated as min(available_scans, 20).
