lib/collections/datasets

Defines the Payload CMS collection configuration for Datasets.

A Dataset represents a specific set of data, such as a collection of events from a particular source. This collection is central to the system, defining not only the basic metadata of a dataset but also the rules for how its data should be processed. This includes configurations for:

ID Strategy: How to uniquely identify and deduplicate records.
Schema Management: Rules for schema detection, validation, and evolution.
Deduplication: How to handle duplicate records found during import.
Type Transformations: Rules for converting data between different types.
Geographic Field Detection: Settings for automatically identifying location data.
