Data Catalog asset pages

The asset pages in Data Catalog provide information about assets.

What has an impact on the page layout and contents?

  • The user interface (UI): latest UI or classic UI. You can learn more in the UI overview.

  • In the classic UI, the layout also depends on the Catalog experience setting.
    Catalog experience is a setting that improves the user experience of the Data Catalog asset pages. The improvements include:
    • Custom tabs that correspond to the page you are working on.
    • A streamlined title bar showing general information.
    • Quicker and easier navigation that requires less scrolling.

    The Catalog experience setting is enabled by default. If required, you can disable it.

  • The layout and information also depends on the asset type, the asset type's assignment, and, in the latest UI, the asset's page layout.

Tip Do not change any of the ingested data of a foreign key as this can cause errors when you resynchronize the database.

The Overviewcontains the following sections:

  • Foreign Key Update Rule: The Foreign Key Update Rule defines what has to be done when you refresh a schema where the primary key is updated.
    • Imported No Action
    • Imported Key Cascade
    • Imported Key Set Null
    • Imported Key Set Default
  • Foreign Key Delete Rule: The Foreign Key Delete rule defines what has to be done when you refresh a schema where the primary key is deleted.
    • Imported No Action
    • Imported Key Cascade
    • Imported Key Set Null
    • Imported Key Set Default
  • Foreign Key Evaluation Deferrability
    • Imported Key Initially Deferred
    • Imported Key Initially Immediate
    • Imported Key Not Deferrable
  • Foreign Key Mapping: The foreign key mapping defines the complex mapping between the primary key and the foreign key.
    For an example of a foreign key, see Foreign Key ingestion.

    Each foreign key mapping consists of the following information:

    • constrains: The value is a column in a child table, its values are restricted by the values of the corresponding primary key.
    • references: The value is the column of the parent table that is a primary key in the database.
    • is part of: The value is the foreign key asset to which the mapping belongs.
    • Key sequence: The value is the order of the constrains definitions.

On a Foreign key asset page, you can find the details of the foreign key and define what has to happen if there are changes to the foreign key.
