role, domain, grain, authority

Definition

What the rows are. role, grain and authority must be declared. The sample uses event_log with process_flow, work_interval with workforce_time, object_master with context and desktop_activity with desktop_activity. authority is primary, secondary or context.

Describe what one row represents

The claims example declares one process event per row:

role: event_log
domain: process_flow
grain: process_event
authority: primary

These lines are part of a source definition, not a complete configuration. A work interval, object master record or desktop activity is a different kind of evidence even if its file also contains timestamps.

Review the source before selecting values

Write down what makes two rows the same event or record, what activity they describe, and why this source should have the selected authority. Use primary, secondary or context according to the evidence you actually have. The source reference lists the supported combinations shown by the sample; do not relabel context records as work intervals merely to obtain a duration.
