Clarification on Dataset Reference Field in CSV Files

·Jul 12, 2025 12:00 AM

Hello! I'm trying to make sense of the dataset "reference" field. I'm a little confused as to how I should leverage it.

1.
Should this be an empty column in my csv to place experiment output?
2.
What does the example in the help text actually mean? I don't understand why dataset.reference maps to dataset.attributes.output.values

This is a mapping, typically used to represent the output column. It can be used as a shortcut when writing eval templates to compare against experiment outputs. For example {dataset.reference} maps to {dataset.attributes.output.value}

Thanks
