Manage validation rules

You can create, edit, and delete validation rules.

Important 

In Collibra 2024.05, we launched a new user interface (UI) for Collibra Platform! You can learn more about this latest UI in the UI overview.

Use the following options to see the documentation in the latest UI or in the previous, classic UI:

Create a validation rule

You can create a Validation Rule asset to check if it meets certain criteria.

The steps to create a Validation Rule asset are the same as those to create any other type of asset. However, ensure that a domain of the type Validation Rule Domain exists, and when creating the asset, select the Validation Rule asset type.

Edit a validation rule

You can edit a Validation Rule asset to add a validation script.

Prerequisites

You have a global role that has the Product Rights > System administration global permission.

Steps

  1. Open the Validation Rule asset.
  2. Double-click any attribute.
  3. Switch on the Show empty optional values option.
  4. Edit the information.
    Tip For information on the Validation Script attribute, go to About validation scripts.
  5. Click Save.

Delete a validation rule

You can delete a Validation Rule asset the same way you delete any other type of asset. For more information, go to Delete an asset.

Note You can't delete a Validation Rule asset if it is assigned to an asset type.
