What are collections in Data Marketplace? (beta)

Important 

In Collibra 2024.02, we've launched a new user interface (UI) in beta 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:

Collections allow you to group assets in organized lists.
They help you be more efficient in what you do because they give easy access to assets you need. You can, for example, create collections with your favorite assets, assets you need in the context of projects, assets you want to follow up on, and so on.

To work with collections, both the Data Marketplace and Collections features must be enabled. For more details, go to Enable Data Marketplace.

Note 
  • The collections feature is in Beta testing and is available only in a Data Marketplace context. We consider extending its availability in the future if the Beta goes well.
  • All users can create collections when the feature is enabled. You don't need other specific permissions.

Once the feature is enabled, users can create collections, add assets to their collections, manage their collections, and share collections.

  • Each user can create up to 100 collections and add up to 200 assets in one collection.
  • The Favorites collection is available by default. It is an out-of-the-box collection and cannot be removed or renamed.
  • Assets can be added to a collection from the Data Marketplace asset preview. For more information, go to Create a collection and add an asset (beta).
  • All collections can be accessed via the avatar → Collections. For more information, go to Manage collections (beta).
    For a collection, you can see the assets in the collection, a collection description, when the collection was last updated and also the composition. The composition shows the asset types of the assets in the collection.
  • Collected assets open in Collibra in the same Browser tab. For more information, go to Open an asset you collected (Beta).
