Data Notebook asset

A Data Notebook asset is the asset that is automatically created when you publish a notebook. Its asset type is Data Notebook, its domain type is Data Notebook Catalog, and its status depends on the Data Notebook asset type assignment.

Image of a Notebook asset

The Notebook tab on the Data Notebook asset page shows the content of the notebook, including its queries. The notebook content is shown only if you have a resource role with the following resource permission: Asset → Data → View notebook content. If you want the queries to be hidden from the Notebook tab on the asset page, in the associated notebook, click and clear the Show SQL on Asset view option.

On the Data Notebook asset page, the Data section on the Summary tab shows the databases that were queried in the notebook. The Data Notebook asset uses the following relation type to show the queried databases: "Data Notebook queries / is queried by Database".
