Synchronize SAP HANA lineage via Cloud Storage connection

You can synchronize your technical lineage manually or automatically by adding a synchronization schedule.

If you want to synchronize technical lineage by using the Collibra Catalog Cloud Ingestions API, use the /genericIntegration/{ingestibleId}/run API, where {ingestibleId} is the capability ID.

If you include multiple databases in your technical lineage capability template, you don't have to synchronize each database separately. One synchronization job will harvest the metadata from all relevant databases.

Warning During the ingestion process, relations of the type "Data Element targets / sources Data Element" are automatically created between certain assets. Any relations of this type that you manually create between assets will be deleted during the synchronization process. If you want to manually create such relations and ensure that they are maintained, you can create a custom technical lineage.
