Optimizing your Data Set

Data set optimization involves letting Smart Flows analyze and remove any unused fields in your project. Removing these unused fields results in faster project performance by eliminating unnecessary content during data retrieval for previews and during flow execution if the field reducer disabled.

You can see the improvement in your project performance before and after optimization by reviewing your analytics data on the Advanced tab.
