Out-of-the-box relation types

The following sortable table contains out-of-the-box relation types.

Tip 
  • Roles and co-roles describe relationships between assets.
    • A role is the description of the relation type originating from the head asset and directed toward the tail asset. It represents the direction in a relationship between two assets, and describes how the head asset interacts with or is related to the tail asset.
    • A co-role is the description of the relation type originating from the tail asset and directed toward the head asset. It represents the inverse direction in a relationship between two assets, and describes how the tail asset interacts with or is related to the head asset.
  • In the latest UI, in the Relation types table in the Operating Model settings:
    • You can find which asset types use a specific item by selecting the row containing the item and then clicking Used In.
    • The System Managed column indicates whether the item is provided out of the box (OOTB) and managed by Collibra. All system-managed items are OOTB, but not all OOTB items are system-managed.
      • Green check icon means that the item is OOTB.
      • Red close icon means that the item is either custom-created or an editable OOTB item.

Warning If you create a technical lineage, relations of the type Data Element targets / sources Data Element are automatically created between certain assets. Any relations of this type that you manually create between relevant assets are deleted during the synchronization process. If you want to manually create these relations and ensure that they are maintained, you can create a custom technical lineage.
