How to Export Business Term History / Version History from Ataccama ONE

Hello,

I am trying to export the information displayed in the “History” tab of Glossary / Business Terms in Ataccama ONE using the ONE Metadata Reader component.

On the Business Term page in the UI, the History tab displays details such as:

  • Version number
  • Published on date/time
  • Published by user

It also shows when a term was newly created or updated, including the timestamp and the name of the user who made the change, similar to an audit/history log.

I would like to export this information together with my glossary/business term metadata.

However, in the ONE Metadata Reader, I can only see the standard business term attributes, and I cannot find any entities or columns related to:

  • history
  • version history
  • revisions
  • published by
  • published on
  • audit information

I am therefore trying to understand where this information is stored and how it can be exported.

Could you please clarify:

  1. Which entity/table/object stores the data displayed in the History tab?
  2. Is this history/version information accessible through the ONE Metadata Reader?
  3. If not, what is the recommended way to export Business Terms together with their version history/publication history?

Hi ​@Susan24us ,

You can retrieve the information by adding a json call step after the metadata reader. In the json call step you can use the following query

{"query":"query getDetails {
    businessTerm(gid: \"#ID#\") {
        gid
        publishedVersion {
           name
            _effectiveFrom {
                id
                timestamp
                author {
              ... on Person {
                firstName
                lastName
               }
              }
            }
        }
    }
}"}

You can retrieve the ‘ID’ from the metadata reader. The path of the data stream (in ‘Reader') is $.data.businessTerm.

Best regards,

Albert
