Enable standalone Data Marketplace and set up Data Marketplace

Several settings can be enabled for the out-of-the-box Data Marketplace experience. In new environments, the Standalone Data Marketplace setting is enabled by default. You can enable additional settings to activate specific features.

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Open the DGC service settings for editing:
    1. Open Collibra Console.
      Collibra Console opens with the Infrastructure page.
    2. In the tab pane, expand an environment to show its services.
    3. In the tab pane, click the Data Governance Center service of that environment.
    4. Click Configuration.
    5. Click Edit configuration.
  2. In the Data Marketplace configuration section, enable the Standalone Data Marketplace setting.
    SettingDescription
    Standalone Data Marketplace

    True (default): Standalone Data Marketplace is enabled. Anyone with the required permissions can use or configure the Data Marketplace application from the Applications icon .

    Note When standalone Data Marketplace is enabled and you reindex Collibra completely, the relations are also reindexed automatically. You don't need to start it manually. However, reindexing the relations will not reindex Collibra completely.

    Tip If you want to replace standalone Data Marketplace with Data Marketplace in Search, go to Moving from standalone Data Marketplace to Data Marketplace in Search.

    False: Standalone Data Marketplace is not enabled.

    After you enable this setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

    Tip Data Marketplace in search does not need to be enabled separately. With the correct permissions people can use Data Marketplace in Search and configure it.

  3. Verify whether you want to enable the following settings in the Search index configuration section.

    Setting

    Description

    Relation-based search

    True (default in new environments): The Data Marketplace search considers certain assets and relation types between assets. As a result, your search results not only include assets that directly match the search criteria, but also assets that match the criteria through specific relation types.

    Example A column named Order is included in a data set named Customer. If the relation-based search is enabled and you search for Order in Data Marketplace, then the data set Customer appears in the search results because the data set contains this column.

    Tip For more information about this feature and the default relation types, go to Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.

    False: The Data Marketplace search results do not consider relations.

    After you enable this setting, you must reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.

    Note In new Collibra environments, this setting is enabled by default. In upgraded Collibra environments, the previous status of this setting is retained.

    Automatic relation indexing

    This setting is specific to Data Marketplace.

    This setting keeps Data Marketplace up to date if relations between assets are created, updated, or removed.

    Example If the relation between asset A and asset B changes and this relation is used in relation-based filters or relation-based search, then the Data Marketplace search considers this change.

    True: Automatically index certain relation type changes between assets so that the relation information remains consistent between Collibra and Data Marketplace. The relation types that are considered are the relation paths used by relation-based search and filters. If such a relation type between assets changes, the change is reflected in the search index after some time.

    Tip For more information about this feature and the default relation types, go to Filtering and searching based on relations in Data Marketplace.
    Note Collibra does not automatically reindex relations between assets for relation paths that end with an attribute. You need to manually reindex the relations.
    Suppose that you created a path that ends with an attribute: Table A contains Column B with attribute Privacy. If you have a column with attribute Privacy and value "sensitive data," a user searching for "sensitive data" can find Table A based on the relation path. However, changes to the attribute value will not be picked up automatically during automatic reindexing.

    False (default): Changes to relations are not automatically indexed. This can cause inconsistencies between Collibra and Data Marketplace. You can, however, reindex Data Marketplace relations manually.

    Maximum batch size for relation path preview

    The maximum batch size for the preview of a relation index.

    • Default value: 500
    • Minimum value: 50
    • Maximum value: 10,000
  4. Click Save all.
  5. If you enabled the Standalone Data Marketplace or Relation-based search setting, reindex Data Marketplace relations or reindex Collibra completely.
