Which tool allows for the examination of data types and record counts before data processing?

The Browse Tool is designed specifically for examining data after it has been inputted into the workflow. It provides a user-friendly interface that displays the data types, record counts, and allows for a detailed view of the data contained in the upstream tools. This visual representation helps users understand the structure and content of their dataset, ensuring they are aware of the data types and the number of records before proceeding with any data processing tasks.

In contrast, while the Output Data Tool and Macro Output Tool deal with saving or exporting data, the Input Data Tool is focused on bringing data into the workflow rather than examining it. Their primary functions do not include providing a comprehensive overview of data types and record counts as the Browse Tool does. This makes the Browse Tool uniquely suited for the purpose of data examination prior to processing.
