Context Help

Hi
This table in the universe in included in a context. Now we updated the
table with an extra column. So Ithink after refreshing the structure I have
to delete the context and build it again. Should I have to delete and build this one context or all the contexts in the universe?

A context is a collection of joins. If the new column did not cause any changes to joins, then there is no need to update contexts at all.

No, not unless this column will be/is used in a join; even then you can just edit the context.

Contexts only apply to joins, not tables.

yea i understand contexts are a bunch of joins… so if the newly added column is not involved in the join, I need not edit the context right?

Correct.
