Enable Data Marketplace

To start using the out-of-the-box Data Marketplace experience, several settings can be enabled. In new environments, Data Marketplace is enabled by default.

Before you begin

Required permissions

You have the ADMIN or SUPER role in Collibra Console.

Steps

  1. Open the DGC service settings for editing:
    1. Open Collibra Console.
      Collibra Console opens with the Infrastructure page.
    2. In the tab pane, expand an environment to show its services.
    3. In the tab pane, click the Data Governance Center service of that environment.
    4. Click Configuration.
    5. Click Edit configuration.
  2. In the Data Marketplace section, enable the Data Marketplace setting:
    SettingDescription
    Data Marketplace
    • True (default): Data Marketplace is enabled. Anyone with the required permissions can use or configure the Data Marketplace application from the Applications icon .

      Note When Data Marketplace is enabled and you reindex Collibra completely, the relations are also reindexed automatically. You don't need to start it manually. However, reindexing the relations will not reindex Collibra completely.

    • False: Data Marketplace is not enabled.

    After you enable this setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

  3. Optionally, enable the following settings in Search index configuration:

    Setting

    Description

    Relation-based search
    • True (default): The Data Marketplace search considers certain assets and relation types between assets. As a result, your search results not only include assets that directly match the search criteria, but also assets that match the criteria through specific relation types.

      Example A column named Order is included in a data set named Customer. If the relation-based search is enabled and you search for Order in Data Marketplace, then the data set Customer appears in the search results because the data set contains this column.

      Tip For more information about this feature and the default relation types, go to Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.

    • False: The Data Marketplace search results do not consider relations.

    After you enable this setting, you must reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

    Asynchronous indexing

    • True (default): Enable asynchronous indexing.The Search service handles changes to your environment in batches. This ensures optimal performance, especially after big changes to your environment, such as importing a lot of assets.
      Tip 
      • If you want to use Automatic relation indexing,this setting must be True.
      • After you have enabled this setting, stop and restart your environment, and reindex Collibra completely.

    • False: Changes to your environment are processed immediately.

    Warning This setting has an impact on your entire Collibra environment, not only to Data Marketplace.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

    Automatic relation indexing

    This setting is specific to Data Marketplace.

    This setting keeps Data Marketplace up to date if relations between assets are created, updated, or removed.

    Example If the relation between asset A and asset B changes and this relation is used in relation-based filters or relation-based search, then the Data Marketplace search considers this change.

    • True: Automatically index certain relation type changes between assets so that the relation information remains consistent between Collibra and Data Marketplace. The relation types that are considered are the relation paths used by relation-based search and filters. If such a relation type between assets changes, the change is reflected in the search index after some time.
      Note Collibra does not automatically reindex relations between assets for relation paths that end with an attribute. You need to manually reindex the relations.
      Warning If you select True, you must also enable the Asynchronous indexing setting because every relation change results in an event that is processed via asynchronous indexation.
      Tip For more information about this feature and the default relation types, go to Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.
    • False (default): Changes to relations are not automatically indexed. This can cause inconsistencies between Collibra and Data Marketplace. You can, however, manually reindex Data Marketplace relations.
  4. Optionally, enable the following setting in Beta Features:

    Data Marketplace Advanced Filter Settings

    Enable this setting to try out personal saved filters and recommended filters for user groups in Data Marketplace.

    • True: The advanced filters can be used in Data Marketplace.
      • Data consumers can save a set of filters that they use frequently as a personal saved filter.
      • Data Marketplace administrators can save a set of filters and make it available only to a specific user group (recommended filters) or to all user groups (filter tabs).
    • False: (default): The beta feature is not enabled.
  5. Click Save all.
  6. If you have enabled Asynchronous indexing, stop the environment and start the environment.
  7. If you have enabled the Data Marketplace, Asynchronous indexing, or Relation-based search setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.
