New features

Search

  • When you rebuild the search index for your Collibra environment, the Output Module is now used to fetch the data. This new, default method greatly improves performance during index runtime. There are no changes to the search index configuration settings or the means by which you reindex your environment. If considered necessary, you can roll back to the old indexing method, via Collibra Console.

Collibra for Desktop

  • You can now filter the content on the Recommendations tab. The available filters are based on your browsing history in Collibra for Desktop.
