This topic provides information about how the Data Profiler engine can be used to run profiles created in the Data Profile Editor, from the command line. There are a set of options or command line parameters available to override various properties, macros values, etc.

Before using the Data Profiler Engine CLI command, either navigate to the di9 directory, that is located at <installation_directory>\di-standalone-engine-64-bit-<DataConnect_version>\runtime\di9, using a command prompt, and run dataprofiler.bat or add the di9 folder to the PATH environment variable and run dataprofiler.bat from the command prompt.

CLI scripts attempt to locate the data connect engine location and initialization file based on its own location, if for some reason, the scripts fail to locate the engine path or if you wish to specify a different engine, then DC_ENGINE_PATH environment variable can be used to provide the path to the directory containing djengine.exe.
