Find the UUID of a metamodel element

It is possible that you need the UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) of an asset, domain or community, for example to use it in API calls.

You can find this UUID by clicking an asset, domain or community in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. The UUID of the selected resource is then shown in the address bar of your browser.

The URL looks like https://<yourdgcinstance>/<resource type>/bc40c085-352c-4a8c-8ee7-494fe821308e.

Tip UUIDs that start with 00000000 are packaged resources.
