Many organizations depend on manual processes and spreadsheets to track or manage assessments and questionnaires, which can be time-consuming, resource-intensive, and error-prone. Assessments offers a solution to these challenges through its REST API. This API allows you to extract data from Assessments for data processing, reporting, trend analysis, making informed data governance decisions, or reintegrating the data into Collibra assets. With the API, you can:
- Get a list of assessments: Use this method to generate reports, dashboards, and graphs based on aggregated data from the conducted assessments.
- Get a list of assessment templates: Use this method to plan and configure assessments to align with your specific needs.
- Retrieve an assessment: Use this method to generate customized reports, start process automation, and notify the owner and assignees of the assessment.
- Start an assessment: Use this method to create follow-up assessments based on existing ones, for example, DPIA periodic reviews.
Note You can also call the Assessments API within a workflow to retrieve or start an assessment from the workflow. For more information, go to Create or retrieve an assessment via workflows.
