Toolbox

The toolbox on the Template Designer tab of an assessment template contains various types of questions, such as checkboxes, text boxes, and date pickers. You can use these question types to add questions and statements to the canvas to elicit input from the user conducting an assessment.

Tip 
  • Click a question type to add it to the current page or click and drag to a specific location on the page.
  • You can also add a question to the toolbox.

In Collibra 2024.05, we've 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:

Question type Allows you to
Single Input

Enter a single line of text.
Checkbox Select one or more of the predefined values.

Radiogroup

Select only one of the predefined values.

Multiline Input

Enter multiple lines of text.

Panel

Frame two or more questions, typically in reference to another question.

Tip Let's imagine you have a Radiogroup question that asks if the organization has identified all Controllers. The possible responses are "Yes" and "No". You could then:
  • Follow this question with a Panel that contains three additional Controller-specific questions.
  • Configure a logic condition so that the Panel and the three questions it frames appear if the response to the Radiogroup question is "No".

Asset Picker

Select one or more assets of a predefined asset type.

Date Picker

Enter a date.

Yes/No

Select "Yes" or "No".

Decision

Return the value "Yes" or "No", based on the scoring of Yes/No questions and a scoring threshold.

For more information, go to Working with scores and decisions.
