What's New

  • Business Glossary
    • In the Business Glossary, the existing functionality of assigning an Object to Domains is improvised from "Synonym of" with "Synonym to" Related Objects to overcome the confusion of adding objects to the domain. 
    • In the Business Glossary > Term > Summary, the new clock icon is included before the Business and Technical Description to view and download the business or technical description history associated with that particular Term.
  • SSRS Connector 
    • In the Crawler Information > SSRS Connector, the new feature associated with the file association is implemented to read the RDL & RDS files from the Local File System to the OvalEdge application.

Improvements

  • Home 
    • In the Home page, if the user selects an object and navigates to the detailed page view of the Object. The Top Values are by default set to display in descending order. 
  • Data Catalog
    • In the Tables module, the users can now download the Tables and Table columns using the download icon placed at the bottom of the page.
  • Business Glossary
    • In the Business Glossary, when the user with the Steward privileges changes the term status from published to draft, the Initiate Workflow button is enabled, where the user can republish the Term, following the new term approval workflow process.
  • My Resources 
    • In the Inbox module, the "Filter Range" and "Select Date Filters" options are added to refine the message search process by defining the date using the drop-down option and calendar options.
  • Advanced Tools 
    • In the OvalEdge API > Term API > the new "API Delete" field is included to delete the Term.
  • Snowflake Connector 
    • In the Jobs module, the existing Job Logs for the Snowflake connector related to the RDAM is improvised to show the differentiation for user and roles between every crawl similar to the tables.
