Hello, 

I am using the Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) Client EE edition 10.2 of Spoon and trying to find out how to enable the Data Explorer option. 

In the 9.3 version, I was able to click on a step and a "fly-out inspection bar" appeared on the top where I could view the data for that step or run the transformation up till that step. Now with the 10.2 version I am unable to see that. I have looked at the documentation for 10.2 and it says that functionality is still there. Get started • Pentaho Data Integration • Reader • Hitachi Vantara Documentation Portal Is there a way to enable this function because I don't see that option in the View tab also.

Thank you!

Hi @Kaden Frazier,

Thank you for reaching out.

The Data Explorer Tool (DET) functionality is available in the OSGi version of PDI. Please confirm which version your are using: non-OSGI or OSGI.   
In the OSGi version of PDI 10.2, the Data Explorer should be accessible like before.

Best regards.
