SAP Datasphere Catalog assets

July 14, 2026

The SAP Datasphere Catalog integration uses a specific subset of asset types. These are available out of the box. For more information on asset attributes or metadata synchronized per asset type, go to Integrated SAP Datasphere Catalog data.

SAP Datasphere	SAP Datasphere Space	A collection of SAP Datasphere models, tables, and views.
SAP Datasphere	SAP Datasphere Perspective	A reusable configuration that contains a subset of consumption model attributes, measures, and parameters.
SAP Datasphere	SAP Datasphere Intelligent Lookup	An object that merges data from two entities.
SAP Datasphere	SAP Datasphere Analytic Model	A representation of an SAP Datasphere model.
SAP Datasphere	Database View	A virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement.
SAP Datasphere	Table	An implementation of data entities in columns and rows, in a given database system. It is the basic structure of a relational database.

SAP Analytics Cloud	SAC Folder	A folder structure that is the parent of Story and SAC Data Model assets.
SAP Analytics Cloud	SAC Story	Dashboards that allow you to tell the story of your data in visualizations and tables.
SAP Analytics Cloud	SAC Data Model	SAC Data Model assets have the attribute Source Type, with one of the following values: Planning Analytic
SAP Analytics Cloud	SAC Data Attribute	SAC Data Attribute assets have the attribute Source Type, with one of the following values: Dimension Measure
SAP Business Glossary	Business Term	Concepts and their definitions that describe the key characteristics of a data asset.
SAP Datasphere Marketplace Data Products	SAP Data Product	A pre-packaged dataset, along with necessary documentation and tools, designed to be easily consumed by non-experts. It provides access to valuable business information in a user-friendly format.
SAP Artifacts	Data Product Port	Defines the interface through which a data product interacts with the broader ecosystem. A data product can feature multiple ports, each categorized based on its relation to the data product.
Not applicable	Data Contract	Documents the objectives for the structure, format, service level, quality, and terms of use for exchanging data between a data provider and their consumers. This terminology is often used in data mesh context and tries to make the analogy to a contract but it should not necessarily be seen as a legally binding document. Often it is just used internally in a company to set the expectations between data producer and data consumer.
Data Provider	Vendor	A provider of goods or services.
