Edit the base URL

The base URL is the consistent part of the URL to access Collibra Platform, for example http://dgc.example.com.

The Collibra base URL is used for various purposes, including but not limited to:

• Constructing hyperlinks: The base URL is essential for creating direct links to Collibra resources, such as workflows, dashboards, and assets.
• Accessing system resources: The base URL is the starting point for accessing various system resources stored in Collibra, including user profile pictures and Tableau report images.
• Enabling API interactions: The base URL serves as the foundation for API calls made to the Collibra platform.
• Facilitating Single Sign-On (SSO): In environments where SSO is enabled, the base URL acts as the endpoint for authentication.
