The "Catalog" permission or the “Sysadmin” role no longer grants access to standalone Data Marketplace in the latest UI.
  • We haven’t modified the permissions needed to use standalone Data Marketplace via API or in the classic UI. That is, you can have the "Catalog" or "Data Marketplace" global permission, or the "Sysadmin" global role.

Lineage Harvester (CLI and Edge)

  • Collibra Data Lineage now harvests lineage from all projects specified by the "Project ID" field on the synchronization page.
  • You can now use a custom Catalog to ingest metadata from Databricks Unity Catalog and create technical lineage.
  • When integrating Power BI, you can now benefit from new filtering options, which we refer to as “filtering v2”. In addition to filtering on capacities and workspaces, v2 allows you to also filter on dashboards and reports, including reports that are published in Power BI apps. For complete information, go to Prepare a <source ID> configuration file and Power BI workspaces.
  • When integrating Looker, Collibra Data Lineage can now access different API endpoints, depending on your Looker user permissions. Therefore, your Looker user no longer requires an Admin role. You can now configure a custom role with a specific set of permissions. For complete details, go to Set up Looker.
  • We updated the Snowflake JDBC driver that is bundled with the CLI lineage harvester to version 3.23.1.

    Collibra Data Lineage Service

    • When ingesting Spark SQL data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now support the TBLPROPERTIES function even if the key is not between double quotations.
    • When integrating Looker, Collibra Data Lineage now uses the value of the “label_short” attribute of the column in Looker, for the display name of ingested Looker Data Set Column assets in Collibra.
    • When ingesting DataStage data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now correctly handle:
      • Sequence in SQL statements.
      • Uppercase and lowercase letters in SQL statements.
    • When ingesting Snowflake data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now correctly handle SQL statements that include a lot of indirect lineage.
    • When ingesting Snowflake data sources via the SQL mode, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now support dynamic tables.
    • When ingesting Azure Data Factory data sources, SQL statements of the type “expression” no longer result in analyze errors.
    • When ingesting Netezza data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now support the WITH FINAL clause used with a table function.
    • You can again export a technical lineage as a JSON file.
    • When analyzing SQL statements from one of the supported BI or ETL tools, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now support SQL statements for which multiple sources are used to create a column.
    • When ingesting custom technical lineage via the batch definition option, Collibra Data Lineage now provides improved error messaging when duplicates are detected.
    • When integrating Power BI with DAX analysis enabled, previously unrecoverable HTTP 400 errors that occurred due to size limitations are now skipped and logged as analyse errors.

    Collibra Data Lineage Service

    • When ingesting Oracle data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now convert to uppercase any lowercase database names that are provided via the "databaseLinkMapping" option.
    • The Collibra Data Lineage service instances now correctly process SQL Common Table Expressions with three or more queries in a set.
    • When ingesting DataStage data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now correctly identify CONTEXT as an SQL clause, instead of as a DataStage expression.
    • When ingesting Snowflake data sources via the SQL-API mode, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances now create lineage even if a referenced database has not been harvested.
    • When ingesting Snowflake data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances use full names instead of native IDs to parse column lineage. This update allows for faster parsing, smaller batches, and less duplicate data.
    • When ingesting Azure Data Factory data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service instances:
      • Can now process single-space escape characters.
      • Now support the UTCNOW and FormatDateTime functions.
    • When ingesting DataStage data sources, variables are now applied at job level for nested jobs. Previously, they were applied at job level only for directly executed jobs.

    Infrastructure

    • We have improved our support for custom certificates on Edge sites. You can now:
      • Add a custom certificate to an Edge site, in addition to the existing system certificates.
      • Add, merge, or replace custom certificates after an Edge site has been installed.
      • Add custom certificates for Data Sources, in addition to proxy setup.

    Security

    • We have improved the security of Data profiling.

    Collibra Protect

    • Protect for Snowflake supports column names containing spaces and special characters.
    • You can now choose how Snowflake checks roles (that is, Protect groups) for applying standards and rules, accommodating Snowflake users who have multiple roles. When adding a capability for Protect for Snowflake, the "Edit Capability" dialog box contains a new "Snowflake role testing" field with the following options:
      • "CURRENT_ROLE" (default): Checks only the primary role assigned to the Snowflake user.
      • "IS_ROLE_IN_SESSION": Checks all the roles assigned to the Snowflake user, including secondary roles, within the active session.

    Data Catalog

    • The Collibra classification and sampling features now support Edge connection names that include the '>' character. However, we still advise against using '>' as it serves as a separator in ingested Catalog asset full names.
    • If you request sample data via Edge, we now report sooner that the 'Request sample data' job is completed.
    • We no longer mark valid dates and numbers in tables as "Invalid value" when collecting samples or classifying data.
    • The attribute "URL" for asset types Table and Database view is automatically synchronized via Edge for AWS Glue data sources only.
    • The AWS Bedrock integration now supports the integration of imported AI models in AWS Bedrock. Note that "imported models" is a preview feature in Amazon Bedrock.
    • The Azure ML integration now supports the integration of custom AI models in Azure ML.

    Collibra Data Lineage Service

    • When ingesting DataStage date sources, Collibra Data Lineage now retains the system names in the file paths. Previously, system names were removed during ingestion, which meant end-to-end lineage could not be attained.

    • When ingesting ADF data sources, the Collibra Data Lineage service can now get objects from an array.

    Infrastructure

    • We have removed ArgoCD from all Edge components. This change improves the security of Edge by reducing future security vulnerabilities associated with ArgoCD.
    • You can now create a backup of your Edge site installed via the Helm chart method, and use it to reinstall that Edge site via the Helm chart method.
