Data Profiling API - adding a new characteristic in Profiling section
We are using the API to import data profiling information at the column level from Trillium and would like to add additional characteristics/attributes to the profiling section. How do we do add a new attribute to those already in the Data Profiling section? We are able to ingest the information, however, the new characteristic appears in the Details Section.

·4 years ago · EditedDoes any one have experience overcoming challenges for profiling data as part of the metadata scan due to available production windows. We are working to profile our data during limited overnight windows and have to abort because the job takes longer than the available window.

Is there any documentation about how to import data profiling with the API ? It is just barely mentioned in the documentation of Collibra.
I may understand If you can’t provide, but I would really appretiate if you have an example of how the json body looks like to call the import API uploading profiling info.
Thanks in advance

·5 years ago · EditedHello Gwen,
I’m replying to myself, it might be useful for you or for others reading this post.
I found out that the profiling data can be uploaded to DGC using the rest Catalog API instead of the rest import API and it’s well documented : https://developer.collibra.com/rest/rest-catalog-api/
The method to be used is : PATCH /profiling/columns
I hope it can help.
Best regards,
Héctor
