User-defined jar file?

Question

We are developing several Collibra workflows. Doing so, there are identical functions that appear in several script tasks. We’d like to consolidate these functions in a single jar file that we can import in each script task. What’s the best way to realize this? Where do we need to store the jar files? How do we generate the jar file?

Any help/advice is appreciated. Thanks!

There is absolutely no documentation of this feature, I only know it because @bart.vanderlocht was kind enough to share it with me.: you can create a groovy-lib folder and store as many groovy scripts as you want. All the functions defined in those scripts are automatically available for all script tasks.

To load the resources, just use backup/restore of customizations.
