Configure Collibra Connect

We have made the decision to transition away from Collibra Connect to provide customers a wider range of integration options.

Our native Collibra integrations (connectors) will be easier to implement and maintain, provide a better return on investment, and allow you to grow with and derive greater value from Collibra:

Collibra integrations and Spring Boot based frameworks will replace Collibra Connect as options to build integrations going forward.
You can choose any ESB or integration method for your use case.
Our intention is to enable Collibra connectors to support ingestion as well as use cases for data profiling, data classification and other cloud functionalities.
If you have an enterprise MuleSoft license, you can easily switch to it. For details on how to switch from Connect licenses to MuleSoft licenses see this Collibra Support article.

Rest assured Connect templates are and will remain compatible with our product, please contact us for any Connect-related question. Only support or any upgrades on these products will be discontinued.

Note As of September 2022, you will need a MuleSoft Community Edition license or your own proprietary paid license to run Connect templates.
