Disable automatic hyperlinking to a specific asset

Automatic hyperlinking will create a hyperlink to an asset if it's name is mentioned on another asset, for example in a text attribute. You can disable automatic hyperlinking at domain level and asset level.

Contact Collibra Support if you want to enable or disable automatic hyperlinking for your entire environment.

An asset may have a common word as its name, for example, "is", "a", "or" or "and". When that happens, you don't want hyperlinks to this asset because it would lead to a lot of useless hyperlinks.

You can still manually create hyperlinks that target the asset.

Steps

1. Open an asset page.
2. In the toolbar, click, Auto hyperlinks.
   The Auto hyperlinks dialog box appears.

3. Check the box for No Automatic Hyperlink.

4. Click Save.

What's next?

All automatic hyperlinks to the asset are removed and Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud no longer creates automatic hyperlinks to the asset.

If you enable automatic hyperlinking to the specific asset again, you have to rebuild the hyperlinks.
