What's next

Tip To ensure the best experience when using the latest UI, we recommend using the latest browser version and configuring your network settings to allow for HTTP/2 or HTTP/3. For more information, go to the Collibra Support center.

• Familiarize yourself with the latest UI.

  Tip Collibra often shows complex information, including large data tables. To ensure optimal viewing, use a screen width of at least 1,200 pixels. Smaller screens widths are not supported.

• If you changed your instance using override files in the classic UI, check the Help Center article for alternate ways to apply some of these customizations in the latest UI.
• If you're using dashboards or custom workflows, verify that they render as expected and update the widgets and HTML code if needed.
• Update your internal documentation and training materials for your users. For example, educate users on the Show Empty Optional Values option and the in-page editing experience on asset pages.
• Optionally, make the most out of your instance by enabling and configuring some of our new features, such as the following:
  • Deliver relevant content to your users with Tailored Asset Pages. You can create customized layouts for your asset types via our layout editor.
  • Make asset discovery easier with configurable search result fields.
  • Provide a curated and customized search experience to all your users.
