Soda Core Data Quality

When to Use

Activate this skill when the task involves:

• Writing SodaCL checks for data quality validation (nulls, ranges, freshness, schema, uniqueness)
• Setting up Soda Core configuration for PostgreSQL, Spark, ClickHouse, Trino, or BigQuery
• Running soda scan from CLI or within Airflow DAGs
• Designing a data quality gate pattern: scan → fail pipeline on violation
• Integrating Soda with dbt (supplementing or replacing dbt tests)
• Writing custom SQL metric checks
• Configuring warn vs. fail thresholds
