Hi everyone,Β Β We're excited to share highlights from our very first Community Spotlight event, where we heard directly from β@Albert de Ruiter, Lead Data Management at Stater, the largest mortgage service provider in the Netherlands.Albert took us on a deep dive into how his team tackled glossary customization in Ataccama ONE to better reflect their business logic and metadata needs. With over 25 years of experience in data, Albert brought both expertise and practical insights to the session.Β π‘ Here are some key takeaways: Why customize the glossary? Stater needed different metadata for catalog items and their attributesβcustomizing allowed them to reflect these distinctions clearly. Custom term types: They introduced entity terms, attribute terms, and business terms to better align with their logical data model. Reusability with relationships: Using relationship types ("roles"), they elegantly modeled attributes that appear in multiple entitiesβlike keys, foreign keys, and descri

Hello!Does anyone have experience using the Iterate tool within the Ataccama Desktop, when creating a workflow? Iβve found a couple of old community posts referring to it, along with the files theyβve used, but I canβt get it to work in my environment. see the following:Iterating rows of a table (Record-by-record - SQL Iterator) in a workflowBased on that post and my testing, it seems like the Iterate tool needs to call another workflow, so Iβm calling another .ewf file that just has the Run DQC tool, which runs the .plan file. Iβm able to succeed in running the .plan file from the Run DQC .ewf, however i canβt seem to get the Iterate tool to run, without getting Configuration errors, like the following:12.03.2025 15:30:51 [INFO] Task 'Iterate' : failed with exception: com.ataccama.adt.internal.core.runtime.EwfConfigException: Configuration contains errors, exitingjava.lang.RuntimeException: com.ataccama.adt.internal.core.runtime.EwfConfigException: Configuration contains errors, e
Hello ,please advise on the steps required to perform a bulk upload of business or report terms to the Business Glossary page?Additionally, is it possible to deploy the glossary content to a higher environment (e.g., from Dev to QA or Prod), or do we need to manually replicate the same steps in each environment
in One Desktop we will get the summary of DQ checks like if the column is empty or if the column (salary) is having greaterΒ than defined. For each and every record it will show the record which got failed in the output of Data Quality indicator . My question here is How to achieve Primary key violated here ? i will show with an example.Β Β Β
Hi everyone,Β Β This weekβs last best practice is on how to import terms from ONE Desktop π₯οΈΒ In data governance, importing terms is a crucial step. Using ONE Desktop, you can streamline this process by batch-importing terms into your ONE Web Application instance. This guide walks you through the process of importing terms from a CSV file into your ONE instance using the Text File Reader and ONE Metadata Writer steps. Please note that while we use the Text File Reader in this example, you can choose alternative input steps like JDBC Reader or ONE Metadata Reader.Step 1: Prepare Your Term FileBegin by preparing your term file. In this example, we have a CSV file called party.csv, which contains several terms:Β Step 2: Create a New PlanCreate a new plan in ONE Desktop. Simply drag and drop your term file into the plan. This action will automatically generate a new Text File Reader step.Β Step 3: Edit Text File Reader PropertiesEdit the properties of the Text File Reader step:In the Columns s
Hello!Β I am trying to think of a way through building a single post processing plan and or component that is able to be applied to every monitoring project in my ecosystem. It is a very simple plan, I will just have a filter for when invalid_rules_explanation is not null, and export to a default CSV location. The issue I am running into is that in all documentation, it is project / catalog specific when setting up a post processing plan. For a company with numerous projects and catalogs (around 500 unique configurations and more coming), I do not want to manually have to create the same post processing plan for every project and catalog. Is there a way to automate this, or have something within the UI of the web version that would allow me to do this more seamlessly?

Hi I'm Srija, Solutions Consultant here at Ataccama.In this post, Iβll walk you through how to use a dynamic expression assigner.Β What is a dynamic expression assigner?The Dynamic Expression Assigner in Ataccama allows you to define dynamic expressions or rules to determine how values are extracted or assigned to specific attributes based on conditions present in your data.Β Use Case:The Monitoring project results will give the attributes , Invalid DQ rules and Invalid DQ Attributes for the failed rows. If we need to extract the DQ Error Attribute Value based on the Invalid DQ Attribute then Dynamic Expression Assigner can be used in the post processing plan.In the below example, I have a DQ_Error_Attribute which is causing the issue for that record. If I need to extract the respective value of the DQ_Error_Attribute then, I can use the Dynamic Expression Assigner.Β We can achieve this using a column assigner, but we must hardcode the attributes to extract the value. If any new attribute

Hi,Β we are making use of reconciliation projects to compare two different dataset with eachother. Most of the data needs to be compared, but some fields we want to skip in the comparison.Β is it possible to skipp certain attributes in the comparison (we got some mutation dateΒ fields that show differences, but are no importance) is it possible to distinguish in notification between some attributes missing and data showing differences (Dataset A has a few extra attributes then Dataset B, but all other data should be exactly the same). I don't want daily notifications that I am missing these attributes, but I do want a notification when the data is showing differences.kind regards, Jur DΓΆrdregter

Hi All,We are periodically cataloguing our Databricks environment and have encountered a scenario where a table in the underlying system has been deleted, however the metadata still remains present in the catalog after a re-scan.I understand this is the expected behaviour of Ataccamaβs existing functionality, however it is not an ideal scenario for end users as they be viewing metadata for an object that no longer exists. Ideally we would want to tag the catalog item to indicate it has been deleted, or soft delete the catalog item in some way and hide it from data consumers to avoid any potential confusion.I am interested to understand whether others have encountered this scenario before and what mechanisms (if any) they were able to implement to help with this, either with native Ataccama functionality or with a custom workaround.Kind regards,CristianΒ
