After the synchronization, assets become available in Collibra.
If no domain mappings are provided, the assets are created in the same domain as the System asset.
Warning Do not move the assets to another domain. Doing so may lead to errors during future synchronizations.
Tip Google Dataplex Catalog synchronization relies on UUIDs.
By default, the assets have the status Implemented.
