    Workflow to automate bulk tagging for datasets and generate notifications once the process completes

    Hello Team, I have a use case to implement in collibra that I think can be done efficiently via workflows. The ask is that a user that owns multiple datasets should be able to bulk tag the datasets with a certain tag. We know how to do it manually (via bulk import/export or using Collibra UI). However, we want to automate this process so once the user tags the applicable selected datasets, then a single notification email is generated and send to the owner who start the process, stating all the datasets selected for tagging and the tag used. Along with this, the notification email shall contain certain roles and responsibilities for the user to abide by. I am trying to find the path of least resistance as well as follow the Collibra best practices to implement this. Can I please get some help on how to approach this problem using workflows and automation in Collibra

    Validation Rules

    Does any one has some useful validation rules for curation of metadata in Collibra? I wonder if there a library that I can leverage. Collibra’s help file is very limited on this. For example: Checks that the Business Term Definition is not the same as Business Term Name. rule { given { definitions = attributes[‘Definition’] } when { isNotEmpty(definitions) } then{ isFalse(isEqual(definitions?.first().toLowerCase(), name.toLowerCase()), message:“The definition must not contain the asset name”) } }

    Display complex relations in diagrams

    Hi community and developers! In out-of-the-box functionality of diagrams complex relations are hard to grasp the meaning. Had someone implemented (or there are custom settings) visualization that would look better. Adding relatiion-specific attributes and their values in the diagram would really improve the situation.

    AD group

    In Collibra DQ, some roles(ROLE_CONNECTION_MANAGER & ROLE_DATASET_MANAGER ) are mapped to AD Group (DQ-Analyst-Azure-AD-Grp). Following objects are part of DQ-Analyst-Azure-AD-Grp group in Azure: group - DQ-Analyst-Azure-AD-Grp-T1 user -  USR1 user - USR2 Following objects are part of DQ-Analyst-Azure-AD-Grp-T1 group in Azure: user -  T1-USR1 user - T1-USR2 Now, USR1 & USR2 are able to see those roles but T1-USR1 & T1-USR2 are not. What setting can be done so even T1-USR1 & T1-USR2 can also see those roles in their profile

    AI Governance Licensing

    Hello, I am helping a client who owns Collibra to develop a roadmap for implementing AI Governance. Does Collibra require any special licensing to implement AI Governance, or is that enabled with standard licensing? Thanks in advance.

    Workflow: User From functionality (dynamic forms) - Filtering selections in form from a previous selection

    USE CASE: Enabling filtering of selectable values in a single selection field based on the selection of a single selection field (above in the same form).   I am keen to explore (within 1 form) selecting from a list of values, where the selection from that list, then enables a filtered list in the next list of values.  ie.  From a Physical Data Dictionary, we select a table, and in the next field, only columns within that table are shown for selection.  We can do this easily across multiple screens, but I would like to do it dynamically in a single form.  I have explored with sub forms, and tried to search for flowable examples where this approach exists, but have failed to find appropriate content. Using multiple forms, the filtering would be done via java API scripts into map lists for a single select.
