Validating Findings

When you apply a validate label to a finding, you can assign it to another DQ user to review. You can assign any job findings to a user who has previously logged into the Collibra DQ application (internal user) or one who has a matching ServiceNow account (external user). This marks the finding for future runs and sends it to the internal Assignments Queue.

Note The ServiceNow integration does not currently support SSO users.

Warning To configure a queue, you must have ROLE_ADMIN or ROLE_CONNECTION_MANAGER.

Steps

  1. Select one of the findings of a previously run DQ job.

  2. In the Status column, click Unassigned. The Edit Assignment dialog box appears.
