Example

This example illustrates how to generate a Predictive Model.

  1. Log in to the Process Mining dashboard.
  2. Click on Import/Export > Connect to see a list of all the connectors. Now select Decisions.
  3. Now the Decisions Data Connector pops up. Enable the toggle for the required data source, select the ID, which is the Extension Folder ID needed for the steps in Decisions, and then click on Import. 
  4. Open the dataset folder and double-click on the event log. This will open a dashboard that shows all the details about the dataset used for creating the prediction model.  
  5. Open the Dashboard Explorer to get the Log Start and Log End Date.
  6. Click on the Attributes tab in the Dashboard to get the features to add in the Decisions flow under the selectedFeatures property.
  7. To get the startActivities and endActivities, click on the Analyzer tab. 
  8. Log in to the Decisions instance and create a Flow.
  9. Drag and drop the Generate Predictive Model Step from Toolbox > All Steps > Process Mining > Prediction.
  10. Select the Generate Predictive Step and open the Properties on the top right corner.
  11. Select the Prediction Algorithm from the list of given algorithms.
  12. Enter the Prediction Dataset details and click OK.
  13. Enter the Prediction Setting details and click OK.
  14. Click on Debug Flow to test the Step. This will create a Predictive Model, which can be viewed on the Process Mining dashboard.
