Additional clarity that Data Refinery profile and visualizations only use the sample

It is not clear when using Data Refinery that the rendered data and, more importantly, the data used in the visualization and profile panes, is just the sample. We need to be upfront about this, to prevent users from looking at the data sample through these views and making assumptions or decisions about their data.

    We are working on a redesign for profile and visualizations for an upcoming release and will make sure it's clear that they are calculated based on the sample and not the entire dataset.

    Note: to see a profile of the entire set you can select "profile" from the preview of the data asset.

    It is now noted on the data table whether the full dataset or a sample is being shown, and if a sample, how many rows.
