Issue - Module 1 - CYBERSYN Data

[josejv7]

I can't find the CYBERSYN data in Snowflake, then, i searched for some issues and that Data does'nt exist anymore, and i try to find that data with another name but is not the same, because of that, i haven't been able to continue the course with the exercises, exist any solution? thanks a lot

Also had the same issue. Hope that in the next modules this dataset will not be used.

Same issue here. Good that others saw it. It looks like Cybersyn itself no longer exists.

You can find the data in the Snowflake Data Package that is free ... Snowflake Public Data (Free).

Just make sure to change the SQL code (from transformatins.sql) a tad so that you reference the right data that you want to make use of. For example:
line 33 references Finance__Economics.CYBERSYN.OECD_TIMESERIES oecd_timeseries
--> that needs to be SNOWFLAKE_PUBLIC_DATA_FREE.PUBLIC_DATA_FREE.OECD_TIMESERIES oecd_timeseries

Just go through the whole code (only 78 lines) and replace the references to Cybersyn.

Cheers!

Thanks for the re-point to SNOWFLAKE_PUBLIC_DATA_FREE! Looks like that should work, and from what I can see in the repo it seems like Module 1 is the only place that source is used.

Yep, looks like Cybersyn as a company wound down last fall per this Reddit post.
