Looking for some up votes -The new license model should allow users with viewer license(read-only) to view tags
Under the new license model, only users with creator or contributor licenses can view tags. If your organization is already utilizing tags, this change may result in additional costs, as read-only users will no longer be able to access them. If you support the idea of allowing all users with viewer permissions to view tags, please vote for this proposal. - The new license model should allow users with a | Ideation platform

The new license model should allow users with a viewer license to view tags.

What impact will it make?

Under the old license model, viewing tags required only read-only permission. However, in the new license model, only users with a contributor license can view tags. Business users frequently use tags to categorize assets and to define data classification.

How should it work?

Users with viewer license should be granted access to see tags in the asset page.

hi,

is there any API for bulk upload of tags. I have a usecase of bulk uploading of tags and the API to upload tags based on assetID is not suitable for my usecase.

Any suggestions ?

API
I am new to Collibra and would like to clarify the future state of some Collibra API version 1 in relation to Version 2. There are some useful APIs in version 1 that I find may be very useful for a workflow we are putting together, but I am unable to find an equivalent in version 2. Does this mean I cannot use these APIs in a new or existing workflow? Is there a plan to replace them, or can they be used in the current solution?

The API in question includes:

/rest/catalogDatabase/v1/schemaMetadataConfigurations/batch
/rest/catalogDatabase/v1/databases/{databaseId}/synchronizeMetadata
/rest/catalogDatabase/v1/profilingConfigurations
/rest/catalogDatabase/v1/databases/{databaseId}/profile

Asset and Attribute API Calls deprecated typeIds (the list)
Noticed in the REST API documentation that the typeIds now say depracated as well as typeId and that there's now typePublicIds.

Did I miss any comms about this?

Receiving 403, 'CSRF token mismatch', errors from POST commands
Within the last 2 weeks I have started receiving 403 return codes for every REST API POST command attempted via Python scripts in our Dev environment. All of these scripts have executed successfully multiple times prior to something changing in the environment.

I have tested the POST commands via the REST API GUI and via Postman, all work. The problem definitely seems to be related to the Python to Collibra REST API environment.

Has anyone experienced this and come up with a resolution?

Deprecated Data Quality Rules API
Hi,

It has recently been brought to my attention that the Data Quality Rule API (https://developer.collibra.com/api/rest/data-governance#/operations/findDataQualityRules) is marked as deprecated.

Despite searching, I've been unable to locate any explicit reasons for this decision.

Does anyone know why this API is being deprecated?

Rename Bulk Assets
Hi,
Is there any faster way to rename bulk assets in a given domain? Currently, I am using change asset API but that is iterating over each asset id taking a lot of time.

Thank you

Attribute Rest Api
Hi,
Is there any way to fetch the attributes of bulk assets using Rest API. I am using attributes api but it is fetching the attributes for each asset one by one, which is very time-consuming. Let me know if there is a faster way to implement it.

Thank you

Adding characteristic to asset type
Hello,
We have created a new asset type using REST API endpoint rest/2.0/assetTypes. Now we need to add the characteristic to this asset type. Do we have the endpoint for adding characteristics in the core API? Is it possible to create the asset type and its characteristics together using import API?
