# Arize Dataset Skill
## Concepts
- **Dataset** = a versioned collection of examples used for evaluation and experimentation
- **Dataset Version** = a snapshot of a dataset at a point in time; updates can be in-place or create a new version
- **Example** = a single record in a dataset with arbitrary user-defined fields (e.g., `question`, `answer`, `context`)
- **Space** = an organizational container; datasets belong to a space
System-managed fields on examples (`id`, `created_at`, `updated_at`) are auto-generated by the server -- never include them in create or append payloads.
## Prerequisites
Proceed directly with the task — run the `ax` command you need. Do NOT check versions, env vars, or profiles upfront.
If an `ax` command fails, troubleshoot based on the error:
- `command not found` or version error → see references/ax-setup.md
- `401 Unauthorized` / missing API key → run `ax profiles show` to inspect the current profile. If the profile is missing or the API key is wrong: check `.env` for `ARIZE_API_KEY` and use it to create/update the profile via references/ax-profiles.md. If `.env` has no key either, ask the user for their Arize API key (https://app.arize.com/admin > API Keys)
- Space ID unknown → check `.env` for `ARIZE_SPACE_ID`, or run `ax spaces list -o json`, or ask the user
- Project unclear → check `.env` for `ARIZE_DEFAULT_PROJECT`, or ask, or run `ax projects list -o json --limit 100` and present as selectable options
## List Datasets: `ax datasets list`
Browse datasets in a space. Output goes to stdout.
```bash
ax datasets list
ax datasets list --space-id SPACE_ID --limit 20
ax datasets list --cursor CURSOR_TOKEN
ax datasets list -o json
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|------|------|---------|-------------|
| `--space-id` | string | from profile | Filter by space |
| `--limit, -l` | int | 15 | Max results (1-100) |
| `--cursor` | string | none | Pagination cursor from previous response |
| `-o, --output` | string | table | Output format: table, json, csv, parquet, or file path |
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
## Get Dataset: `ax datasets get`
Quick metadata lookup -- returns dataset name, space, timestamps, and version list.
```bash
ax datasets get DATASET_ID
ax datasets get DATASET_ID -o json
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|------|------|---------|-------------|
| `DATASET_ID` | string | required | Positional argument |
| `-o, --output` | string | table | Output format |
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
### Response fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `id` | string | Dataset ID |
| `name` | string | Dataset name |
| `space_id` | string | Space this dataset belongs to |
| `created_at` | datetime | When the dataset was created |
| `updated_at` | datetime | Last modification time |
| `versions` | array | List of dataset versions (id, name, dataset_id, created_at, updated_at) |
## Export Dataset: `ax datasets export`
Download all examples to a file. Use `--all` for datasets larger than 500 examples (unlimited bulk export).
```bash
ax datasets export DATASET_ID
# -> dataset_abc123_20260305_141500/examples.json
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --all
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --version-id VERSION_ID
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --output-dir ./data
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout | jq '.[0]'
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|------|------|---------|-------------|
| `DATASET_ID` | string | required | Positional argument |
| `--version-id` | string | latest | Export a specific dataset version |
| `--all` | bool | false | Unlimited bulk export (use for datasets > 500 examples) |
| `--output-dir` | string | `.` | Output directory |
| `--stdout` | bool | false | Print JSON to stdout instead of file |
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
**Agent auto-escalation rule:** If an export returns exactly 500 examples, the result is likely truncated — re-run with `--all` to get the full dataset.
**Export completeness verification:** After exporting, confirm the row count matches what the server reports:
```bash
# Get the server-reported count from dataset metadata
ax datasets get DATASET_ID -o json | jq '.versions[-1] | {version: .id, examples: .example_count}'
# Compare to what was exported
jq 'length' dataset_*/examples.json
# If counts differ, re-export with --all
```
Output is a JSON array of example objects. Each example has system fields (`id`, `created_at`, `updated_at`) plus all user-defined fields:
```json
[
{
"id": "ex_001",
"created_at": "2026-01-15T10:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2026-01-15T10:00:00Z",
"question": "What is 2+2?",
"answer": "4",
"topic": "math"
}
]
```
## Create Dataset: `ax datasets create`
Create a new dataset from a data file.
```bash
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file data.csv
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file data.json
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file data.jsonl
ax datasets create --name "My Dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file data.parquet
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `--name, -n` | string | yes | Dataset name |
| `--space-id` | string | yes | Space to create the dataset in |
| `--file, -f` | path | yes | Data file: CSV, JSON, JSONL, or Parquet |
| `-o, --output` | string | no | Output format for the returned dataset metadata |
| `-p, --profile` | string | no | Configuration profile |
### Passing data via stdin
Use `--file -` to pipe data directly — no temp file needed:
```bash
echo '[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]' | ax datasets create --name "my-dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file -
# Or with a heredoc
ax datasets create --name "my-dataset" --space-id SPACE_ID --file - << 'EOF'
[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]
EOF
```
To add rows to an existing dataset, use `ax datasets append --json '[...]'` instead — no file needed.
### Supported file formats
| Format | Extension | Notes |
|--------|-----------|-------|
| CSV | `.csv` | Column headers become field names |
| JSON | `.json` | Array of objects |
| JSON Lines | `.jsonl` | One object per line (NOT a JSON array) |
| Parquet | `.parquet` | Column names become field names; preserves types |
**Format gotchas:**
- **CSV**: Loses type information — dates become strings, `null` becomes empty string. Use JSON/Parquet to preserve types.
- **JSONL**: Each line is a separate JSON object. A JSON array (`[{...}, {...}]`) in a `.jsonl` file will fail — use `.json` extension instead.
- **Parquet**: Preserves column types. Requires `pandas`/`pyarrow` to read locally: `pd.read_parquet("examples.parquet")`.
## Append Examples: `ax datasets append`
Add examples to an existing dataset. Two input modes -- use whichever fits.
### Inline JSON (agent-friendly)
Generate the payload directly -- no temp files needed:
```bash
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --json '[{"question": "What is 2+2?", "answer": "4"}]'
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --json '[
{"question": "What is gravity?", "answer": "A fundamental force..."},
{"question": "What is light?", "answer": "Electromagnetic radiation..."}
]'
```
### From a file
```bash
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --file new_examples.csv
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --file additions.json
```
### To a specific version
```bash
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --json '[{"q": "..."}]' --version-id VERSION_ID
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `DATASET_ID` | string | yes | Positional argument |
| `--json` | string | mutex | JSON array of example objects |
| `--file, -f` | path | mutex | Data file (CSV, JSON, JSONL, Parquet) |
| `--version-id` | string | no | Append to a specific version (default: latest) |
| `-o, --output` | string | no | Output format for the returned dataset metadata |
| `-p, --profile` | string | no | Configuration profile |
Exactly one of `--json` or `--file` is required.
### Validation
- Each example must be a JSON object with at least one user-defined field
- Maximum 100,000 examples per request
**Schema validation before append:** If the dataset already has examples, inspect its schema before appending to avoid silent field mismatches:
```bash
# Check existing field names in the dataset
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout | jq '.[0] | keys'
# Verify your new data has matching field names
echo '[{"question": "..."}]' | jq '.[0] | keys'
# Both outputs should show the same user-defined fields
```
Fields are free-form: extra fields in new examples are added, and missing fields become null. However, typos in field names (e.g., `queston` vs `question`) create new columns silently -- verify spelling before appending.
## Delete Dataset: `ax datasets delete`
```bash
ax datasets delete DATASET_ID
ax datasets delete DATASET_ID --force # skip confirmation prompt
```
### Flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|------|------|---------|-------------|
| `DATASET_ID` | string | required | Positional argument |
| `--force, -f` | bool | false | Skip confirmation prompt |
| `-p, --profile` | string | default | Configuration profile |
## Workflows
### Find a dataset by name
Users often refer to datasets by name rather than ID. Resolve a name to an ID before running other commands:
```bash
# Find dataset ID by name
ax datasets list -o json | jq '.[] | select(.name == "eval-set-v1") | .id'
# If the list is paginated, fetch more
ax datasets list -o json --limit 100 | jq '.[] | select(.name | test("eval-set")) | {id, name}'
```
### Create a dataset from file for evaluation
1. Prepare a CSV/JSON/Parquet file with your evaluation columns (e.g., `input`, `expected_output`)
- If generating data inline, pipe it via stdin using `--file -` (see the Create Dataset section)
2. `ax datasets create --name "eval-set-v1" --space-id SPACE_ID --file eval_data.csv`
3. Verify: `ax datasets get DATASET_ID`
4. Use the dataset ID to run experiments
### Add examples to an existing dataset
```bash
# Find the dataset
ax datasets list
# Append inline or from a file (see Append Examples section for full syntax)
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --json '[{"question": "...", "answer": "..."}]'
ax datasets append DATASET_ID --file additional_examples.csv
```
### Download dataset for offline analysis
1. `ax datasets list` -- find the dataset
2. `ax datasets export DATASET_ID` -- download to file
3. Parse the JSON: `jq '.[] | .question' dataset_*/examples.json`
### Export a specific version
```bash
# List versions
ax datasets get DATASET_ID -o json | jq '.versions'
# Export that version
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --version-id VERSION_ID
```
### Iterate on a dataset
1. Export current version: `ax datasets export DATASET_ID`
2. Modify the examples locally
3. Append new rows: `ax datasets append DATASET_ID --file new_rows.csv`
4. Or create a fresh version: `ax datasets create --name "eval-set-v2" --space-id SPACE_ID --file updated_data.json`
### Pipe export to other tools
```bash
# Count examples
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout | jq 'length'
# Extract a single field
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout | jq '.[].question'
# Convert to CSV with jq
ax datasets export DATASET_ID --stdout | jq -r '.[] | [.question, .answer] | @csv'
```
## Dataset Example Schema
Examples are free-form JSON objects. There is no fixed schema -- columns are whatever fields you provide. System-managed fields are added by the server:
| Field | Type | Managed by | Notes |
|-------|------|-----------|-------|
| `id` | string | server | Auto-generated UUID. Required on update, forbidden on create/append |
| `created_at` | datetime | server | Immutable creation timestamp |
| `updated_at` | datetime | server | Auto-updated on modification |
| *(any user field)* | any JSON type | user | String, number, boolean, null, nested object, array |

## Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---------|----------|
| `ax: command not found` | See references/ax-setup.md |
| `401 Unauthorized` | API key is wrong, expired, or doesn't have access to this space. Fix the profile using references/ax-profiles.md. |
| `No profile found` | No profile is configured. See references/ax-profiles.md to create one. |
| `Dataset not found` | Verify dataset ID with `ax datasets list` |
| `File format error` | Supported: CSV, JSON, JSONL, Parquet. Use `--file -` to read from stdin. |
| `platform-managed column` | Remove `id`, `created_at`, `updated_at` from create/append payloads |
| `reserved column` | Remove `time`, `count`, or any `source_record_*` field |
| `Provide either --json or --file` | Append requires exactly one input source |
| `Examples array is empty` | Ensure your JSON array or file contains at least one example |
| `not a JSON object` | Each element in the `--json` array must be a `{...}` object, not a string or number |

# ax Profile Setup
Consult this when authentication fails (401, missing profile, missing API key). Do NOT run these checks proactively.
Use this when there is no profile, or a profile has incorrect settings (wrong API key, wrong region, etc.).
## 1. Inspect the current state
```bash
ax profiles show
```
Look at the output to understand what's configured:
- `API Key: (not set)` or missing → key needs to be created/updated
- No profile output or "No profiles found" → no profile exists yet
- Connected but getting `401 Unauthorized` → key is wrong or expired
- Connected but wrong endpoint/region → region needs to be updated
## 2. Fix a misconfigured profile
If a profile exists but one or more settings are wrong, patch only what's broken.
**Never pass a raw API key value as a flag.** Always reference it via the `ARIZE_API_KEY` environment variable. If the variable is not already set in the shell, instruct the user to set it first, then run the command:
```bash
# If ARIZE_API_KEY is already exported in the shell:
ax profiles update --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY
# Fix the region (no secret involved — safe to run directly)
ax profiles update --region us-east-1b
# Fix both at once
ax profiles update --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY --region us-east-1b
```
`update` only changes the fields you specify — all other settings are preserved. If no profile name is given, the active profile is updated.
## 3. Create a new profile
If no profile exists, or if the existing profile needs to point to a completely different setup (different org, different region):
**Always reference the key via `$ARIZE_API_KEY`, never inline a raw value.**
```bash
# Requires ARIZE_API_KEY to be exported in the shell first
ax profiles create --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY
# Create with a region
ax profiles create --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY --region us-east-1b
# Create a named profile
ax profiles create work --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY --region us-east-1b
```
To use a named profile with any `ax` command, add `-p NAME`:
```bash
ax spans export PROJECT_ID -p work
```
## 4. Getting the API key
**Never ask the user to paste their API key into the chat. Never log, echo, or display an API key value.**
If `ARIZE_API_KEY` is not already set, instruct the user to export it in their shell:
```bash
export ARIZE_API_KEY="..." # user pastes their key here in their own terminal
```
They can find their key at https://app.arize.com/admin > API Keys. Recommend they create a **scoped service key** (not a personal user key) — service keys are not tied to an individual account and are safer for programmatic use. Keys are space-scoped — make sure they copy the key for the correct space.
Once the user confirms the variable is set, proceed with `ax profiles create --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY` or `ax profiles update --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY` as described above.
## 5. Verify
After any create or update:
```bash
ax profiles show
```
Confirm the API key and region are correct, then retry the original command.
## Space ID
There is no profile flag for space ID. Save it as an environment variable:
**macOS/Linux** — add to `~/.zshrc` or `~/.bashrc`:
```bash
export ARIZE_SPACE_ID="U3BhY2U6..."
```
Then `source ~/.zshrc` (or restart terminal).
**Windows (PowerShell):**
```powershell
[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('ARIZE_SPACE_ID', 'U3BhY2U6...', 'User')
```
Restart terminal for it to take effect.
## Save Credentials for Future Use
At the **end of the session**, if the user manually provided any credentials during this conversation **and** those values were NOT already loaded from a saved profile or environment variable, offer to save them.
**Skip this entirely if:**
- The API key was already loaded from an existing profile or `ARIZE_API_KEY` env var
- The space ID was already set via `ARIZE_SPACE_ID` env var
- The user only used base64 project IDs (no space ID was needed)
**How to offer:** Use **AskQuestion**: *"Would you like to save your Arize credentials so you don't have to enter them next time?"* with options `"Yes, save them"` / `"No thanks"`.
**If the user says yes:**
1. **API key** — Run `ax profiles show` to check the current state. Then run `ax profiles create --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY` or `ax profiles update --api-key $ARIZE_API_KEY` (the key must already be exported as an env var — never pass a raw key value).
2. **Space ID** — See the Space ID section above to persist it as an environment variable.

# ax CLI — Troubleshooting
Consult this only when an `ax` command fails. Do NOT run these checks proactively.
## Check version first
If `ax` is installed (not `command not found`), always run `ax --version` before investigating further. The version must be `0.8.0` or higher — many errors are caused by an outdated install. If the version is too old, see **Version too old** below.
## `ax: command not found`
**macOS/Linux:**
1. Check common locations: `~/.local/bin/ax`, `~/Library/Python/*/bin/ax`
2. Install: `uv tool install arize-ax-cli` (preferred), `pipx install arize-ax-cli`, or `pip install arize-ax-cli`
3. Add to PATH if needed: `export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"`
**Windows (PowerShell):**
1. Check: `Get-Command ax` or `where.exe ax`
2. Common locations: `%APPDATA%\Python\Scripts\ax.exe`, `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Python\Python*\Scripts\ax.exe`
3. Install: `pip install arize-ax-cli`
4. Add to PATH: `$env:PATH = "$env:APPDATA\Python\Scripts;$env:PATH"`
## Version too old (below 0.8.0)
Upgrade: `uv tool install --force --reinstall arize-ax-cli`, `pipx upgrade arize-ax-cli`, or `pip install --upgrade arize-ax-cli`
## SSL/certificate error
- macOS: `export SSL_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/cert.pem`
- Linux: `export SSL_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt`
- Fallback: `export SSL_CERT_FILE=$(python -c "import certifi; print(certifi.where())")`
## Subcommand not recognized
Upgrade ax (see above) or use the closest available alternative.
## Still failing
Stop and ask the user for help.
