What is the purpose of the Object Explorer?

The Object Explorer is primarily designed as a search and analysis tool specifically for the Ontology layer. Its primary function is to allow users to navigate through various objects and understand the relationships and properties that exist within the data model. By facilitating exploration of the Ontology, users can gain insights into how different data entities relate to one another, which is crucial for conducting analysis and building applications that leverage structured data. This capability enables users to understand the data schema, making it easier to utilize and manipulate data effectively in their workflows.

In contrast, the other options, while they may seem relevant, do not accurately reflect the main purpose of the Object Explorer. For instance, while conducting advanced analytical workflows involves utilizing various tools and capabilities within the platform, it is not the primary function of the Object Explorer itself. Similarly, defining object properties is typically handled in other parts of the development environment, and data governance, while an important aspect of data management, has a different focus beyond what the Object Explorer offers.
