Prepare a domain for MicroStrategy ingestion

Before you can ingest MicroStrategy metadata, you have to create a new domain or choose an existing domain to store the new MicroStrategy assets. You then have to specify the domain reference ID in the lineage harvester configuration file. Collibra uses the domain to ingest all MicroStrategy assets.

Prerequisites

You have a resource role with the Domain > Add resource permission.
