Data source-specific permissions

Updated: August 13, 2026

To run data quality on a data source, the Edge connection must have the minimum permissions described below.

Important

The Edge connection may be shared with other capabilities, such as Structural Metadata Ingestion, or may be specific to Data Quality & Observability, such as Data Quality Pullup Processing or Data Quality Pushdown Processing.
Archive break records permissions currently apply to Data Quality Pushdown Processing only.

Permissions by data source

The following sections list the minimum required permissions for each supported data source, organized by capability. Permissions are listed separately for Structural Metadata Ingestion, Data Quality Pullup Processing and Data Quality Pushdown Processing, and archive break records.

Note Archive break records permissions currently apply to Data Quality Pushdown Processing connections only.

Note Unlike other Pushdown data sources, Trino connections require you to create COLLIBRA_DQ_RULES and COLLIBRA_DQ_BREAK_RECORDS manually in your source system before enabling archive break records. Collibra cannot create these objects automatically because DDL syntax and data types vary across Trino-connected platforms. Additionally, some Trino connectors, such as the BigQuery connector, do not support creating views through Trino. In those cases, create the view directly in the underlying platform.

Show setup instructions and examples

Create the COLLIBRA_DQ_RULES table using the DDL for your platform. Example for BigQuery:

Copy

CREATE TABLE `<catalog>`.`<schema>`.`COLLIBRA_DQ_RULES` (
                                seqno      BIGINT,
                                updts      TIMESTAMP(6),
                                job_uuid   VARCHAR,
                                dataset    VARCHAR,
                                run_id     TIMESTAMP(6),
                                rule_name  VARCHAR,
                                link_id    VARCHAR,
                                results    VARCHAR
                        )

Create the COLLIBRA_DQ_BREAK_RECORDS view. Because the Trino BigQuery connector does not support creating views through Trino, create this view directly in BigQuery (not through Trino). Example:

Copy

CREATE VIEW `<catalog>`.`<schema>`.`collibra_dq_break_records`
                                AS SELECT
                                dataset    AS job_name,
                                job_uuid   AS run_uuid,
                                run_id     AS run_date,
                                updts      AS updt_ts,
                                'Rules'    AS monitor_type,
                                rule_name  AS monitor_name,
                                CONCAT('Rule violation for "', rule_name, '"') AS description,
                                CONCAT('{"metadata":{"rule_name":"', rule_name, '"},"results":', TO_JSON_STRING(results), '}') AS details
        FROM `<catalog>`.`<schema>`.`COLLIBRA_DQ_BREAK_RULES`;
