Assessments API

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. Collibra offers a solution to these challenges through the Collibra Assessments REST API, which has Version 1 and Version 2. 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.

Collibra Assessments REST API Version 1

With the Version 1 API, you can:

  • Get a list of assessments: To generate reports, dashboards, and graphs based on aggregated data from the conducted assessments.
  • Get a list of assessment templates: To plan and configure assessments to align with your specific needs.
  • Retrieve an assessment: To generate customized reports, start process automation, and notify the owner and assignees of the assessment.
  • Start an assessment: To create a follow-up assessment based on an existing one, for example, DPIA periodic review.

Collibra Assessments REST API Version 2

With the Version 2 API, you can:

  • Retrieve an assessment: To generate customized reports, start process automation, and notify the owner and assignees of the assessment.
  • Start an assessment: To create a follow-up assessment based on an existing one, for example, DPIA periodic review.
  • Edit an assessment: To update assessment details, such as editing responses or properties. You can pre-fill questions in the assessment with information about the asset.
  • Complete or submit an assessment: To finalize an assessment by marking it as complete or submitting it for review.
  • Retake an assessment: To restart an assessment to address changes, for example, when the assessment is rejected.
  • Import an assessment: To import an assessment from an external source into Collibra.

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.
