In Collibra 2024.05, we launched a new user interface (UI) for Collibra Data Intelligence Platform! You can learn more about this latest UI in the UI overview.
Use the following options to see the documentation in the latest UI or in the previous, classic UI:
After synchronization, the resulting assets are available in the same community as the SAP Datasphere tenant domain. However, the integration creates a different domain per space.
- The assets have the same technical names as their counterparts in SAP Datasphere Catalog.
- By default, all ingested assets have an initial asset status Candidate. You can, however, configure which initial status you want assets to have when they are ingested, and the asset status progression.
- Relations that were created between SAP Datasphere Catalog assets and other assets via a relation type in the SAP Datasphere Catalog operating model, are deleted upon synchronization. The same is true of any attribute types in the operating model that you add to the SAP Datasphere Catalog assets mentioned in the following table. To ensure that the characteristics you add to the following assets are not deleted upon synchronization, be sure to use characteristics that are not part of the SAP Datasphere Catalog operating model.
- SAP Datasphere Catalog allows duplicate asset names. For example, you can have two folders with the full name "Workspace A > Folder A". The ingested assets in Collibra will have the same display names, but different full names. The API returns version information to help you differentiate between two such assets.
- If you move assets to another domain, they will automatically be moved back to the original domain at the next synchronization.
- If a temporary communication issue results in a partial synchronization, the status of the assets that were not synchronized becomes Missing from source. If the assets are identified in the source system during the next fully successful synchronization, the previous statuses are restored.
By default, the assets have the status Implemented.
Synchronized metadata per asset type
This table shows the metadata for each SAP Datasphere Catalog asset type and the resource ID for each asset type and characteristic.
Note For assets in SAP Datasphere Catalog that have a "summary" and a "description", if the API returns both of these values, they are both shown in the "Description from Source System" attribute on the respective asset pages in Collibra Data Catalog. To differentiate between the two, the value of the "summary" attribute in SAP Datasphere Catalog, will be shown with the prefix "summary:".

The following image shows the relation between the relevant SAP Datasphere assets and an SAC Story asset. The relation type is Data Asset is source for / source BI Report.
Recommended hierarchy within a domain
By default, the assets in the resulting domains are shown in a plain list, but as shown in the following image, you can enable a hierarchy to show them in a tree structure. Doing so makes it easier to understand the relation between your SAP assets, when viewing the assets in a domain.
Steps
- Open the relevant domain page.
- On the content toolbar, click
.
The Configure Hierarchy dialog box appears. - Select Enable Hierarchy.
- Select Multipath.
- In the Relation Type field, add the following relation types:
For system type... Start typing and select these relation types - SAP Datasphere
- Technology Asset groups Technology Asset
- SAP Datasphere Space contains Data Asset
- Data Model contains Table
- Table contains Column
SAP Analytics Cloud - Technology Asset groups Technology Asset
- Storage Container assembles BI Folder
- Business Dimension groups Report
- BI Folder contains Data Asset
- BI Folder assembles BI Folder
- Report contains Report Attribute
- Data Asset groups Data Asset
- BI Report source Data Asset
SAP Business Glossary Business Asset represents Data Asset
The following example image show the required relation types to show SAP Datasphere assets in hierarchy.
- Click Apply.
- In an asset view, if any asset is deleted, for example via synchronization or manual deletion, the view is recreated and the hierarchy is lost. In this case, you can again enable and configure the recommended hierarchy.
- When viewing the hierarchy for a community or domain, if the parent of a node that is in the community or domain belongs to a different community or domain, that node is not shown in the hierarchy.
