Map Template: TIFF image alignment shifts to left after reconfiguration & polygon layer not refreshing
Hi everyone I’m building a Workshop module that visualizes floor layouts using Map Templates with TIFF images and GeoShape polygon overlays. I’ve run into a couple of issues and was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar. Issue 1: Map Template image alignment after reconfiguration I recently noticed that my Map Template background had become clickable/selectable, which caused incorrect navigation behavior. After reconfiguring the Map Template to fix the selection issue, the TIFF image is now aligned to the left instead of being centered as it was before. Has anyone encountered this? Is there a way to control the anchor point or alignment of a Map Template image? Issue 2: GeoShape polygon layer not refreshing on data source change My map widget displays GeoShape polygons on top of TIFF-based Map Templates. When switching between different layouts (which changes the underlying object set), the background Map Template image updates correctly, but the polyg
Wrote a free vendor-neutral guide to building a first ontology — what did I get wrong?
Hi All I am an independent author (not affiliated with Palantir). I wrote a free guide, “Ontology Is All You Need: A Practical Implementation Guide for Midsize Companies,”. Link to PDF https://www.applayerai.com/ontology Goal is to teach 50–1,000-person companies to create their first ontology. It’s vendor-neutral by design. Many companies will start in tools they already own and graduate to Foundry later. Before it goes wide, I’d genuinely value this community’s judgment and feedback. Scope: I cap version one at 15–20 object types. Where do real first implementations actually land? is that ceiling right? Sequencing: The guide builds the semantic layer first (weeks 3–8), then adds kinetics: two or three governed actions for a single workflow (weeks 8–11). Many of you work use-case-backwards instead. When does each approach win? Timeline: Is 90 days honest for a midsize company with one half-time data lead and part-time domain experts, ending in one piloted agent b

Unstructured Data Ingestion
We are ingesting unstructured data from S3 AWS, but the problem here is file formats are undefined. The S3 bucket folder contains 18 different file formats as of now and in future there might be a different file format coming in. In our POC, we have imported all the files manually and converted(gotenberg library) them into PDFs so that they can processed properly using LLM. Now I’m confused of how to ingestion from S3. batch sync or media set sync. And if it is media set sync then is multimodal sync the best option? Ultimately I had convert them into PDFs and then use in the LLM pipeline. Any recommendations on this will be very helpful. Thank you 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic

Incorrect Certificate Issued – Professional Exam Completed but Associate Certificate Received
I recently completed the Foundry Certification Exam for Data Engineers (Professional) on July 24, 2026 . I successfully passed the exam, and received the confirmation email from Palantir. However, I noticed that the certificate and badge issued to me are for the Associate Level , even though I registered for and completed the Professional Level certification exam. Additionally, some of my colleagues took the same Professional certification exam on the same day, and they received the correct Professional badge and certificate . This makes me believe there may have been an issue with my certification being generated. 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic
Server-side error previewing deleted writeback dataset RID
I’m trying to preview the writeback dataset ri.foundry.main.dataset.27b8e8a0-d494-4257-a22b-b7fd7df60f2a, but I get a server-side error: “Refer to the server with this errorInstanceId: 2aaad964-aee4-4527-b669-762ef2670b50”. This dataset was previously deleted but is still consumed by downstream use cases. I want to understand whether the RID can be restored or reused, and whether importing local data into the same writeback dataset RID is possible. Has anyone seen this state before, where the RID exists but preview fails with an errorInstanceId? 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic
Training exercise - S3 source missing Access Key credentials
I’m working through the predefined training at https://build.palantir.com/platform/3b679834-f847-4ff2-82ad-6cf7018f1224 Step 1 asks me to build a dataset that ingests data from an S3 source (“Notional Data Source - S3”) The build fails with AccessDenied because the Access Key ID field in the source’s Connection Settings is empty The source should come pre-configured with working AWS credentials as part of the training setup IAM user referenced in the error: s3-training-test-user-1 (account 441477072185 ) Bucket: notional-data.sandbox.training.palantir.com Egress policies are correctly configured and approved — this is purely a missing credentials issue 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic

Feature request - Enable dataset_sql_tool access in agent studio
dataset_sql_tool : which has the ability to query the datasets directly is available as a part of AIP analyst but not as a part of ai-chatbot-studio. In our company we only have datasets we are not allowed to create objects. Because we have it this way any agent that we create if we want them to access and query some datasets where we provide the context of these datasets in the agent description does not work. 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic
