Note Generic data steam type dimensions aren’t available in the Dimension Explorer.

1. On the Connect & Mix tab, select **Dimensions**, and then **Dimension Explorer**.
    
    Here you can see all the dimensions that exist in the platform.
2. In the **Search** bar, enter the dimension you’re investigating. For example, enter Site.
    
    ![search for dimension](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-mktg-salesforce_datorama-264-0-0-production-enus/d38a342d-dd4a-4af8-8343-f372280a75dd/salesforce_datorama/images/data/dato_data_dimension_explorer_search.png)
3. To search for a specific value, click the Filter button and then filter by the incorrect value.
    
    ![filter by dimension](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-mktg-salesforce_datorama-264-0-0-production-enus/d38a342d-dd4a-4af8-8343-f372280a75dd/salesforce_datorama/images/data/dato_data_dimension_explorer_filter.png)
    
    Here you can see this site name comes from Data Stream 2.
    
    ![found dimension name](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-mktg-salesforce_datorama-264-0-0-production-enus/d38a342d-dd4a-4af8-8343-f372280a75dd/salesforce_datorama/images/data/dato_data_dimension_explorer_result.png)
    
    You can go back to the data stream, fix it and then reprocess it, or to save time change the value in the Dimension Explorer.
4. To fix the incorrect value, go to the Site Name column, click and then enter a new value.
    
    ![dimension fixed](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-mktg-salesforce_datorama-264-0-0-production-enus/d38a342d-dd4a-4af8-8343-f372280a75dd/salesforce_datorama/images/data/dato_data_dimension_explorer_fixed.png)
5. If the value belongs to old data and won’t be used again, select the row and then click **Delete**.
6. Save your work.
    
    Make sure you remove the filter when you’re done so you can see all the dimensions again.
