Highlights

  • In Collibra Platform 2023.04, we have upgraded to PostgreSQL 14.7 to ensure that your Collibra can continue to receive PostgreSQL updates. PostgreSQL is the database software that is used to store data of the Collibra repository, Collibra Console, and Jobserver.
    The upgrade to PostgreSQL 14.7 will not be applied to Collibra 2023.03 or older.

New features

Miscellaneous

  • In Collibra Platform 2023.04, we have upgraded to PostgreSQL 14.7 to ensure that your Collibra can continue to receive PostgreSQL updates.
  • You can now optionally upgrade your Jobserver running on Linux to use PostgreSQL 14.7. For more information, go to PostgreSQL 14 upgrade.
  • In the Documentation Center, you can now use a filter to search in a specific area. This way, you can reduce the number of search results and get faster to the information you need.

Enhancements

Data Lineage and BI integrations

Note Data Lineage is a cloud-only feature.

  • You can now include the new Calculation Rule attribute type on Power BI Column asset pages to show DAX calculations.
  • With the lineage harvester, you can now use the new ignore-source command to ignore the specified data source from the list of data sources to be used to create the technical lineage.
  • With technical lineage via Edge (in preview), you can use the new Analyze only checkbox in each capability to determine whether to only load and analyze the source data on the Collibra Data Lineage service instances. When you select this option, the technical lineage of the data source is not created during the synchronization of the capability.
  • Power BI Data Flow asset pages now show the description of the data flow.

Data Governance

  • You now need the System Administration or User Administration global permissions to export sensitive data about another user.
  • You can now import Excel files containing formulas when using the new import wizard. The formula's value is calculated and imported.

Fixes

Data Lineage and BI integrations

Note Data Lineage is a cloud-only feature.

  • When you integrate Looker, corrupt Looker Dashboards are now skipped.
  • When you ingest Microsoft SQL Server data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances can now parse QUALIFY statements.
  • A partial technical lineage that is generated from queries that have analyze errors no longer produces a foreign key error. (ticket #106998)

Data Marketplace

  • Data Marketplace now properly cuts text when the description is too long, and images are correctly displayed. (ticket #104830)

Data Governance

  • You can once again import assets into an existing community or domain using the new import wizard without needing resource permissions to create new communities and domains. (ticket #106147, 107491, 107722, 107820, 108055, 108476, 108597, 108730, 109279)
  • If you import tags or relations which contain commas using the new import wizard, Collibra no longer tries to split up the value in separate instances. (ticket #101851, #107617)

Collibra Console

  • The HTTP headers section in the DGC service configuration is now shown only to users who have the SUPER role.
