Creating Explicit Relationships between Communities and "external" Assets

We have been struggling with the lack of relationships between communities (or domains) and assets located outside of their path. So if we have a "Customer" community and a "Customer" business data domain asset that's located under a "Business Data Domains" community, we would want to go from the one to the other, for example to check the status of the Customer business data domain asset and if it's "active" get the business terms that sit within the Customer community To help with this we've added a "Community Anchor" asset type and use it whenever we want to make the relationship between a Community and an Asset explicit: the "Customer" community has an "Anchor" domain with a "Customer Community Anchor" anchor asset. We can then easily create a relationship between the anchor asset and the business data domain asset. This pattern is especially convenient for workflows that often need to move from the one to the other with confidence. We used to do this by matching names only, and it was not always reliable. Hopefully it might help some people with the same issue but I'm also very curious to hear how you handle this situation? Do you use similar patterns?

Limits to dropdowns
We seem to have hit a limit to the number of items that can be displayed in the asset dropdown on a form created in workflow designer. Does anyone know what the limit is and if there is a way to increase it?

Configuring the Data Access Request workflow to show questions based on asset type
Hello, I'm trying to configure the out of the box Data Access Request workflow to show questions based on the on the asset type the requester wants access to using the start event. This is with the workflow designer For example, if the asset type is Data Asset the workflow will automatically start and the user will have to answer question set A If the asset type is report, the workflow will automatically start and the user will have to answer question set B. I would like to do it at the start event to reduce the number of clicks for a user. Has anyone experienced this before? Thank you!

Customize default popup when workflow is cancelled.
I have a workflow with a form. In the form, I am using Outcomes item 'cancel'. Adding a link with condition {form_myform_outcome == "cancel"} --> to end event. The cancel button works but popup message ' Task Completed'. How can I customize the message since I simply cancelled'

GRAPHQL asset endpoint
I'm wondering if GraphQL APIs provide a way to get the total record count in responses similar to how REST APIs do. Additionally, what's the best approach for implementing pagination with offset and limit parameters in GraphQL to retrieve all records?

How to Search Discussions
Is there a way to search Collibra community discussions? I would prefer to search and check if someone has already asked my question and provided an answer before I type up a new one. I see there's a search on the home page, Collibra Community | Unified governance for data and AI | Collibra Community, but it's really slow and never comes back with anything meaningful. I don't see a search for the discussions directly though.

AI Attribute Generation
I found the Rest API for generating descriptions to assets based on its name by using the web browser's debugger. See below. Is there an equivalent Workflow Java API too? I want to write a workflow to generate an Excel document of all the generative descriptions for all the column types in a domain and then have a steward review and reimport them. This is faster than one by one the way it is now. If there's not a Java workflow API I can do this is in a script too using Rest: Rest Generative AI URL Endpoint https://your_dgc_instance/rest/attributeGenration/v1/drafts/generate HTTPS Post {attributeTypeId: "your_attr_id, "assetIds" : ["Asset:your_asset_id"], "forceRefresh": false} HTTPS Rest Response: [{"id": "response_id", "attributeTypeId": "attr_type_id", "assetId": "your_asset_id", "value": "generated AI value}]

Weird Validation Situation

I have the unusual situation where I have 5 text attributes, each of which need to be validated against 20 colors and some other items in the same text field. The fields need to stay as text fields so a drop down is not an option. The example below shows a piece of the validation. rule{ anyOf{ condition{isEqual(attributes.'Field1'?.first(),'Red')} condition{isEqual(attributes.'Field1'?.first(),'Blue')} } } I could write 5 separate validations, but the problem occurs when a new color is added - I would need to update 5 separate validations. OR I could write 1 large validation which contains all 5 fields and under each field list the 20 colors - but the same problem occurs when a new color is added. Has anyone else run into a similar problem and be willing to share their solution? Thanks, Scott Sc
