- Before logging into the OvalEdge application, a new Warning Banner is displayed to inform users about the organization's privacy and security notices. When the user clicks the Okay button, the Sign In page is displayed, allowing the user to enter their credentials and sign in.
A new system setting, 'login.warning.enable,' has been introduced to display a warning banner when logging into the OvalEdge application.
-
- If set to 'true,' the warning banner appears.
- If set to 'false,' the warning banner does not appear.
Home
New & Improved
- Previously, users could not view the total number of unsuccessful login attempts or the last successful login date on the Home page.
With this improvement, users can now see the last successful login date and the number of unsuccessful login attempts between the current and previous successful logins on the Home page.
Configuration:
To enable this feature:
-
- Navigate to Administration > System Settings > Others.
- Use the key home.lastlogin.enable and set its value to true.
- By default, this system setting is set to false.
My Resources
New & Improved
- In My Resources > My Project Tasks, drag and drop functionality has been implemented for task cards in the Board view for individual projects.
- A new component has been built, allowing users to choose language preferences so the application shows in that language. In the My Resources section, go to My Profile and select your preferred language from the drop-down menu. The application will then be displayed in the chosen language.
Data Catalog
New & Improved
- Administrators can now control access to the report preview tab in the Data Catalog and Dashboards. They can enable or restrict other users' access to the report preview tab as needed. Additionally, they can manage report preview access by setting viewer permissions and role-based controls.
Navigate to Administration > Security > Applications and search for the Application Name (Report - Preview). - In the Data Catalog's list view, users now have the provision to add comments when certifying multiple data objects using the 9-dots action menu. This functionality allows users to include relevant comments during bulk certification.
- The Froala Editor now supports Right-to-Left (RTL) and Left-to-Right (LTR) text alignment when adding business and technical descriptions in Arabic. This enhancement allows users to achieve proper indentation and formatting for languages like Arabic that require RTL alignment.
- A new feature, 'Add to Impact Analysis,' has been introduced to enhance impact analysis workflows. Users can access this feature in multiple areas.
- Navigate through Tables, Table Columns, File, File Columns, Report, and Report Columns, click on the Nine Dots, and select the '+Add Impact Analysis' option.
- Alternatively, on the Tables, File, and Report Summary page, go to the Lineage tab, open the Graphical View, locate the nodes section, click on the three dots, and select 'Add to Impact Analysis'. This enhancement provides a streamlined approach to managing impact analysis.
- Previously, there were no loading bars to inform users when a page was loading. Now, loading bars have been implemented on all the pages in the Data Catalog.
Fixed
- In the Data Catalog objects grid view, an issue where the naming conventions of statuses in the "Certification" column and its filter did not match has been resolved. Users will now see consistent certification status names in the 'certification' column and its filter.
- In the Data Catalog’s Object Summary, the issue of terms becoming invisible in the object summary after being associated with data objects has been resolved. Users can now view the associated term(s) in the object summary without issues.
- In Data Catalog’s Object Summary, the issue that caused the URL field to be invisible in the business and technical descriptions during edit mode has been resolved. Users can now view the URL field in the pop-up after clicking the "Insert Link" icon.
- In Report Columns, the issue where the formula field for a virtual report column became non-editable for a manual connector after saving has been fixed. Users can now edit the formula field for virtual report columns linked to a manual connector, even after saving.
- In Data Catalog’s Object Summary, an issue where the Data tab displayed "No Data Exists" even after crawling and profiling the SSAS on-prem connector has been resolved. Users can now view the data in the Data tab for the SSAS on-prem connector objects as expected.
- In Data Catalog > Databases > Create New View, the issue that prevented users from creating a Public View when the "View Visible to All" option was selected has been resolved.
Users can now create and configure Public Views without encountering any issues. - In the Data Catalog > Tables, an issue where if the cloned table did not exist, column-level lineage was not built has been fixed. Now, column-level lineage is also built along with table-level lineage.
- Users can now hide/display the "Generate with AI" button across all the metadata description fields using the system configuration.
- The Remote Tags section has been removed from the Data Catalog's File Column Summary, as it applies solely to files, not file columns.
- In the Data Catalog object summary's nine-dots action menu, the label in the 'Update Governance Roles' pop-up has been updated to "Cascade all Governance Roles to Hierarchy."
- Creating Virtual Tables and Reports no longer requires adding at least one column during setup.
Business Glossary
New & Improved
- Users can now clone any existing term. The cloned term will be created in the same domain but not linked to any specific category or subcategory. It will inherit the following metadata: Business Description, Detailed Description, Tags, Custom Fields, Related Objects, Classification, and Policies.
- In the Term Summary > Associated Objects, users will now find an "Originative Source" column within each associated object type category tab. This column allows users to mark data objects (e.g., tables, columns, files, APIs) as originative sources, enabling quick identification of the origin of data within the organization.
This enhancement improves clarity and significantly enhances data traceability, particularly lineage tracking. - In the Term Summary, users can now filter report columns in the Associated Objects and Recommendations tabs by connection name. This enhancement simplifies navigation, making it easier to find relevant report columns.
Fixed
- In the Term Summary, an issue has been resolved where the metadata curation scores for terms were not updating after running the metadata curation advanced job. Previously, the scores would only refresh when users clicked the metadata curation icon. Now, users can view the updated metadata curation scores for terms automatically without clicking the icon.
- In the Term Summary, an issue where the associated code count was missing on the summary page has been fixed. Additionally, the issue of connector names not appearing for Codes and Report Type objects in the Associations tab has been resolved. Users can now see the code count in the Term Summary and the connector name details in the Associations section for Codes and Reports.
- In the Tree View, text wrapping and justification issues in term descriptions have been fixed. Users can now read term descriptions without any text layout problems.
- Admins can now reset the default system configuration and grant access to only specific Governance Role(s) users to publish the Term.
- Changes made by Security and Governance Admins (SGA) to the default classifications within a domain will no longer impact the classifications already checked or unchecked in existing terms within the same domain.
- Users won't be able to download the masked data when a masking policy is applied to a term associated with a file column.
- Users can now select multiple objects as authoritative sources.
Question Wall
New & Improved
- The assignee will receive email notifications for the initial question and all follow-up replies.
Dashboard
Fixed
- In Dashboard, previously, when a report was unavailable, the corresponding tile appeared blank, causing confusion. Now, the system displays a placeholder message within the tile to inform users that the report is unavailable clearly.
Projects
New & Improved
- The Project's Board View has been enhanced to improve object naming conventions, display curated task descriptions, and show task status history.
- Previously, users needed to manually configure the status workflow when starting a new project. With the "Copy Existing Status Workflow" option, users can choose an existing project from a dropdown menu to apply its workflow to the new project. The new project will default to system-generated statuses if no project is selected.
- A new "Priority" column has been added to the Projects List View, enabling users to view and manage task priorities.
Fixed
- The issue of data stories not showing up in the List View after being added to a project has been resolved. Now, users can see data stories linked to a project in both the List View and the Board View.
- In All Projects, an issue where the project label in connected modules such as Grid View (Data Catalog, Business Glossary) and tags associations was incorrectly displayed as "Project" even after selecting the default project type as "Access Cart" has been resolved.
Users will now see the default project type set in the Projects module, and the same is reflected as the project label in all connected modules. - A safeguard mechanism has been implemented in projects to prevent the accidental deletion of the default project, whether during single project deletion or as part of a bulk deletion process.
Service Desk
New & Improved
- Automated Metadata Curation allows users to transfer metadata from one report to another. When a new report is created in the source system, and the connector is crawled in OvalEdge, the report is added as an object with its metadata.
A new request type, Curating New Asset, is introduced and available when Tables or Reports are selected as object types. A custom template guides this process, enabling users to curate metadata for a new report based on an existing one. Users can fill in fields such as Business Description, Technical Description, and Associated Tags.
During the approval phase, users can select the new report group and name the report. After the request is fulfilled, a virtual report with the curated metadata is created. The virtual report remains in the Data Catalog even if the connector is crawled again. When the report is fully created and crawled in OvalEdge, it is added as a crawled object with the existing metadata from the virtual report.
- In the Service Desk Template, previously, fields such as Placeholder Text, Tooltip, and Field Label could not be edited once a service request was raised. Additionally, system-defined Workflow Action and Status Labels were not editable. In the current version, these fields are now editable if the template has no pending service requests. System-defined Workflow Action and Status Labels are also editable. A new Description field has been added for Status, allowing users to specify the use case for each System Status and modify the name accordingly, providing greater flexibility and control.
- Enhanced Service Request Closure Permissions in Service Desk.
Data Classification Recommendations
New & Improved
- In the Governance Catalog, Data Classification Recommendations, the AI configuration for setting the maximum number of data objects for AI recommendations was previously limited to Table Columns. This functionality has now been enhanced to support additional data objects, including Report Columns and File Columns.
- In the Data Classification Reports Overview, identifying data classifications while filtering and downloading records was challenging for users. Now, a “Classification” column has been added to every object page. This addition provides clear visibility of the classification applied to each data object, enhancing data clarity and accessibility.
ROPA
Fixed
- In ROPA Reports, the issue of Top Users being invisible under the "Top Users" section in the report summary has been resolved. Users can now view the Top Users list.
Data Quality
New & Improved
- In the Data Quality Rule Overview, previously, users had to navigate to the Rule Executions tab to view metrics such as Passed Count, Failed Count, Undetermined Count, and Execution Failed Count. The updated Data Quality Rule module now displays these fields directly on the overview page, providing immediate visibility based on the latest rule execution.
- The labels for "Report Data Quality Issue," "Report Metadata Change Request," "Term Data Quality Issue," "URL Data Quality Issue," and "Data Literacy" have been corrected to Arabic from the current version to the correct version.
- The supported data types for the Exasol connector were previously outdated and caused potential inaccuracies in the rule application. Following the update, the data types now align with the accurate list, ensuring consistency and accuracy in applying table column rules.
- The Data Quality Remediation Center has been enhanced to display failed values for Custom SQL Rules, addressing a significant limitation in the previous version where failed values were not shown. This improvement allows users to view problematic data directly, enabling quicker identification and resolution of data quality issues.
- In Data Quality Rules, users can now create custom SQL rules using the LMDF template, addressing the limitations of the previous version that required manual rule configuration. This enhancement allows users to upload templates containing boolean, statistical, and failed value queries, simplifying the creation of complex or customized rules for their datasets. Additionally, the feature supports direct query uploads via the template, reducing manual effort, streamlining the rule creation process, and ensuring the system efficiently interprets, catalogs, and applies these queries.
- Previously, Data Quality rules were not directly linked to terms, making it difficult to track their associations. The new solution allows users to add Data Quality rules in the 'Related Objects' section, enabling them to link rules with specific terms and specify relationship types. This change improves tracking and organization, offering a functional way to manage Data Quality rule relationships.
- Standardized Default View and Enhanced Customization for Data Quality Rules.
Fixed
- Change in Operator Default Values
- Enhanced Access Controls for Inline DQR Menu Actions
- Accurate User Attribution for Data Quality Rule Modifications
- In Data Quality Rules, scheduling conflicts are resolved to ensure the "Last Run By" field accurately displays the user who scheduled each rule, even during simultaneous executions.
- In the Data Quality > Rule Recommendations section, the "Add Objects" widget now displays only the connectors associated with the Data Quality Add-On license.
Query Sheet
New & Improved
- Users can now copy and paste SQL queries into the Query Sheet and execute them without errors.
Fixed
- An issue where users encountered blank data when downloading a query related to the Azure Synapse connector after increasing the row count limit has been resolved. Users can now view the complete SQL query data in the downloaded file, regardless of the adjusted row count limit.
- An issue where an error was thrown when users added the complete SQL code with intermittent line breaks has been resolved. Users can now execute queries, even if the SQL query includes line breaks.
- An issue where SQL queries failed to execute has been resolved. Users will no longer face query execution issues caused by line breaks, spaces, or other formatting in the SQL commands.
- Enhanced Security for Query Sheet Column Access
Jobs
Fixed
- An issue where the file name displayed a temp path after downloading has been resolved. Now, users can view the created user ID and timestamp included in the file name for better clarity and tracking.
Compare Profile Results
Fixed
- Previously, the Source and Target drop-down list placeholder was shown as "Please select the connector," is fixed and now showing as "Please select the schema" as per the functionality.
Compare Schemas
Fixed
- An issue was encountered when comparing schemas by selecting Schema A from one connector and Schema B from another, where only the latest crawl date appeared in the Select Date dropdown, even though the schema had been crawled on multiple dates. This issue has been resolved, and now the Select Date dropdown displays all the dates on which the schema was crawled, allowing users to select from a complete set of crawl dates.
Build Auto Lineage
New & Improved
- Lineage dashboard has been enhanced.
- Metadata propagation has been enhanced.
- Temp connector is not displayed on the Connectors page.
Fixed
- An issue with the clone table not building the lineage in the OvalEdge application when using the Clone function in Snowflake SQL. This issue has been fixed, and the Clone function is now supported in OvalEdge for Snowflake SQL.
- An issue while building lineage for the Dataset semantic tables expression, a new type of MCode function used in expression i.e. Analysis.Services() has been resolved. Now that function is handled and the lineage is populated for the expression and connected to the SSAS server, which is mentioned in the MCode.
Load Metadata from Files
New & Improved
- Users who uploaded the Datasets LMDF template with the code type set to "OTHER" encountered an invalid SQL error.
Fixed
- In the Load Metadata from Files > Data Quality Rule, an issue with downloading the “Data Quality Rule” template with data from the “Object Name” column has been resolved. Users will now be able to download the Data Quality Rule template with data.
- In the Load Metadata from Files > Table Column, when users renamed a downloaded template file and uploaded it an error occurred. This issue has been fixed, allowing users to upload renamed files successfully.
- In the Load Metadata from Files, when users uploaded table details where the table name and view name were identical, the governance roles were not updated. This issue has been fixed, and governance roles are now correctly updated for these tables on the Data Catalog page.
- In the Load Metadata from Files > Upload Users, when users logged in using SAML and attempted to upload user data, the upload failed if the username and first name fields were empty. This issue has been fixed, and the sheet now uploads successfully even if these fields are empty.
OvalEdge APIs
New & Improved
- A new API has been developed to retrieve all the reports based on the Report Group ID.
- A new API '/api/getAssociatedCustomFieldValueObject' has been developed to get the object details with a particular custom field.

- The Table and Table Column APIs now display all associated term details, including the term ID, domain name, term name, category name, and subcategory name, based on the table or column ID.
Connectors
New & Improved
- The SAP Table connector in OvalEdge is now enhanced to fetch relationships from the source system and display them in the data catalog. A new Relationships option has been added to the connector settings. When enabled, the crawler automatically retrieves the relationships from the source SAP system and displays them in the entity relationship diagram (ERD), providing a clear view of table relationships and improving data governance and discovery.
- The Crawler options in Connector Settings have been enhanced with a new Indexes checkbox. When users select the Indexes checkbox, indexes from SQL, Oracle, and Greenplum databases are automatically crawled and displayed in the Data Catalog under the Index tab within the Table Summary.
- A new enhancement has been made for the Sybase connector to build the lineage from files to tables for stored procedures.
- The size limit for fields in Secrets Manager has been increased.
- For the Synapse connector,

This functionality has now been enhanced. When an Azure DevOps ticket is created, the Area Paths and Iteration Paths specified in the Service Desk Template mapper fields are now mapped and displayed in the Azure DevOps ticket.
- In Service Desk Templates, for the Associated Workflow, the Actor dropdown previously displayed all Team or Role names, even if no users were associated with them. This caused confusion for users.
This functionality has now been enhanced:- The Actor dropdown displays only Team or Role names with at least one user assigned.
- If a Governance Role is the approver in the workflow and an empty team is assigned as the Governance Role for an object, the workflow will skip that team and move to the next approver.
- In the Service Desk Template, the default term status for the Term Creation Request template was previously set to "Published." Additionally, system templates were not editable, and custom templates could not be modified once a service request had been raised. In the current version, the default value of Term Status has been changed to "Draft." Custom options in service request templates are now editable when the template is inactive and has no pending service requests.
- Specific fields in the Service Desk Template and Workflow Actions and Status Labels are now editable if no service requests are pending.
Custom Fields
Fixed
- An issue causing inconsistent visibility of custom fields while navigating between Global Custom Fields and Connector Custom Fields has been resolved. Users can now view the global and connector custom fields without any issues.
System Settings

- System Setting 'catalog.views.setdefault.allow' has been removed.
Audit Trails
New & Improved
- In the Audit Trails, under the Catalog tab and the Terms sub-tab, the action for data objects was previously displayed as Add for both when a term was moved to the draft state and the published state. This caused confusion among users.
This functionality has now been improved. When a term is moved to the draft or published state, the action is recorded only once. Detailed action information is displayed in the Governance Catalog under Terms in the Action Details column, with the following messages:- Term successfully moved to Draft State.
- Term successfully moved to Published State.
New Connectors
Oracle Analytics Server
- Oracle Analytics Server (OAS) is an on-premises analytics platform offering reporting, data visualization, and advanced analytics capabilities.

Data Lineage Dashboard
Known Issue
- In the Lineage Dashboard, we see the ovaledgedb connection, which happens when the schema or connector containing lineage tables is deleted. This issue will be fixed in the upcoming release, and users will not see the OvalEdgedb in the lineage dashboard.
Data Quality
Fixed
- In Data Quality Rule previously in Data Quality Rule execution, failed values appeared unmasked in the Data Quality Remediation Center (DQRC) and Notifications despite being correctly masked in Rule Executions and Object Executions. This issue is now resolved, and failed values are correctly masked across all relevant sections, ensuring consistency and data security.
Build Auto Lineage
Fixed
- Go to Data Catalog > Report Columns > Select any object, then click on Lineage. In the tabular view, an issue where the icons for report columns were showing as tabular icons has been fixed. Now, the icon for the report column is showing correctly.
- Go to Data Catalog > Tables and click the Has Lineage button; it navigates to the Lineage tab. Then, if the user clicks on Dashboard > Data Lineage and clicks on Lineage, again, if the user clicks on Data Catalog > Tables and clicks on Has Lineage, the page is not found error has been fixed. Now, if the user navigates from the Dashboard, able to view the Lineage.
Connectors
Fixed
- In Administration > Connectors, when you crawl tables from the Salesforce connector, they are crawled into OvalEdge. If a table is deleted from Salesforce, it should automatically be marked inactive in OvalEdge after the next crawl. However, this process was slow and caused performance issues. Now, the issue has been resolved by optimizing the performance by simplifying the inactivation of tables while using relationships.
- In Administration > Connectors > select any connector of type RDBMS or Report connector, go to Connector Settings and Others tab; an issue where when the user chooses any Team and saves changes and again navigates to Others tab, then the user is unable to see the added team is resolved. Now, the user can see the selected team.
New & Improved
- In Administration > Connectors > OAS7 connector, AWS Secrets Manager has been introduced as a Credential Manager.
Reporting Framework
New & Improved
- The ovaledgedb connector now supports Azure Key Vault and AWS Secrets Manager when users store their credentials in the oasis.properties file. While validating the ovaledgedb connector using these Credential Manager, the connector gets authenticated based on the values specified in the oasis.properties.file. This functionality has also been applied to Azure Entra ID and MariaDB connections.
Migrated the Reporting Framework (RFW) from file-based storage to Liquibase for improved data management and integrity.
- Previous Challenges:
- Deleting and inserting RFW data led to data loss and disrupted associations.
-
Enhancements with Liquibase:
- Corrects inaccurate queries and ensures data consistency.
- Inserts new scripts without affecting existing data.
- It protects data and formatting, preventing any unintentional changes.

Auto Lineage Build | Parsing Error for Specific Report Codes
In the SAP BO connector, a parsing error occurred during Auto Lineage Build for specific report codes. After metadata crawling, some reports failed to generate lineage due to syntax or structural issues in the report code, resulting in a partial lineage build. This issue has been resolved. All supported reports are now correctly parsed and processed during Auto Lineage Build operations.
Lineage Report Count Mismatch | Built Lineage Page vs. Data Catalog
In the SAP BO integration, the number of reports displayed on the Built Lineage page did not match the count in the Data Catalog. This caused confusion when validating report metadata and assessing lineage coverage. The issue has been resolved. Report counts are now accurate and consistent across both the Built Lineage page and the Data Catalog.
Missing Report Column Details Post Lineage Build
In the SAP BO connector, the lineage build process failed to capture column details, leading to missing columns in the Data Catalog. This was caused by backend errors during the post-processing step.

Data Catalog
Fixed
Tables - Relationships
- In Data Catalog > Tables > Relationships, an issue occurred where accessing the relationship code triggered an "Invalid Query" error due to an incorrect URL. Although the code was accessible through the Data Catalog Codes search, direct access from the Relationships section failed. This issue has been resolved, and relationship codes are now accessible as expected from the Relationships section.
- Users were unable to delete relationships from the Entity Relationships table, as the delete action failed silently without any error or confirmation message. This issue has been resolved. Delete actions now function as expected with the appropriate system response.
Connectors
Fixed
Quick Sight Crawling Issue
In the QuickSight Connector, while crawling, errors were generated in the logs that caused the job to terminate before completion. This issue is now resolved. Crawling jobs complete successfully without interruption, and metadata is extracted as expected.

Data Quality Rules
Fixed
Performance Issue with Data Quality Queries
An issue was identified where certain queries were causing a high load on database tables due to poor indexing. These queries, used for calculating average scores across various data quality dimensions, resulted in performance degradation due to extensive table scans.
The queries have now been optimized to improve efficiency and reduce scan load, and the system is now performing as expected.
Query Sheet
New & Improved
SQL Query Formatting
In the Query Sheet and Data Catalog, saved SQL queries now retain their original formatting as written.
- Previously, saved queries were automatically reformatted when viewed in the Query Sheet collaboration window or the Data Catalog’s code summary.
- This reformatting altered critical aspects of SQL structure, such as indentation, line breaks, and alignment. As a result, complex queries became difficult to read, interpret, and debug.
- The automatic reformatting feature has been removed. Saved queries now display exactly as initially written and saved, maintaining all original line breaks, indentation, and alignment.
Note: Please ensure that commenting out the first line of a SQL query has been identified as a known gap, where execution should ideally not proceed. Please share the information with the client.

The application now consistently uses 'Tablero' for 'Report', and the 'Parent Report' field is translated correctly.
Connectors
Fixed
Partial Success in Crawling Report Groups in Qlik Sense (On-Prem)
The crawl operation for a report group in Qlik Sense (On-Prem) resulted in partial success due to a synchronization issue. This issue has now been resolved by limiting the crawl to a single report. Crawling of report groups is now completing successfully.
Incorrect Lineage Mapping in Qlik Sense (On-Prem)
The lineage was displaying alias names instead of actual source names and linking unrelated elements because variables were not replaced with actual values during extraction. This issue has now been resolved. The lineage now reflects correct source names and valid relationships.

These issues have been resolved. Long names are now neatly truncated with ellipses, and special characters are displayed correctly.
Audit Trails
Fixed
Missing Timestamps When Restoring Backup from CSV Archive for a_wiki Table
While restoring backup data from archival CSV files, the lastupdatetime column for the table was missing. This occurred because the backup job did not populate the lastupdatetime field when storing data in CSV format. This issue has now been resolved. The backup process has been corrected to include the lastupdatetime field in the CSV output.
Custom Fields
Fixed
Spelling Error for Table Column Object Type
In the Administration > Custom Fields, when selecting the object type as Table Column and navigating to the System Fields tab, the field Null Value Percentage was incorrectly displayed as Null Percentage (spelling mistake).

Lineage Not Established Between BigQuery Table and Tableau Report
In the Tableau connection, a BigQuery table used in the Insights, detailed report was not parsed in the lineage, despite being present in the Data Catalog and correctly configured with the BigQuery dialect. This issue has now been resolved. The BigQuery table now appears correctly in the Tableau report lineage.
External Data Source Misclassified as Internal in Tableau Report
In the Global dashboard, the report’s data source was incorrectly classified as internal due to system checks based on the repository location and the fields. This issue has now been resolved. Data sources with an HTTPS connection channel are now correctly identified as external and treated as original assets for lineage building, even when the repository location is missing.
Extra Upstream Table Displayed in Unity Catalog Lineage
In Unity Catalog, the lineage incorrectly displayed two upstream tables, although only one upstream table was present in the JSON. This issue has now been resolved. The lineage now accurately reflects a single upstream table as defined in the source.

Bulk Action Button Not Disabled
In the Business Glossary, the Delete Terms button remained enabled even after unchecking the Select All checkbox. This occurred because the system failed to disable the bulk action button when no terms were selected. Attempting to delete without a selection caused an error. The system now correctly disables the Delete Terms button when no terms are selected.
Data Classification
Fixed
Incorrect Replacement of Primary Term by Auxiliary Term
In the Data Classification module, approving a recommendation using the 👍 icon incorrectly replaced the existing Primary Term with a recommended Auxiliary Term. This happened because the system failed to distinguish between term types during approval. As a result, Auxiliary Terms were allowed to overwrite Primary Terms without confirmation. The system now correctly preserves the Primary Term and only adds Auxiliary Terms. A confirmation pop-up is displayed when replacing a Primary Term with another Primary Term.
Data Quality Recommendation Center
Fixed
Data Quality Remediation Center Status Change Issue
In the Data Quality Remediation Center, the Change Status option remained enabled even when no records were selected. This happened when users selected all items, navigated to a different page, and returned; the selection was lost, but the system still allowed status changes. The system now correctly disables the Change Status option when no items are selected in the UI.
Jobs
Fixed
Manage Button Enabled Without Selection
In the Jobs module, the Manage Jobs button was incorrectly enabled after selecting a job on one page and navigating to the next, even when no job was selected on the new page. This occurred because the system did not clear the previous selection across pagination. The system now correctly disables the Manage Jobs button when no jobs are selected on the current page.

In Data Catalog Table Columns, an issue occurred where downloading Table Column details from the Job Logs failed due to a backend query error. This issue has been resolved, and users can now successfully download the Table Column details.
Data Quality
Fixed
DQ Summary Page No Longer Breaks on Cancel Action
In Data Quality, an issue occurred within the Data Quality Summary when users entered the purpose and activated the rule without saving, which triggered a pop-up, and canceling this pop-up caused the page to break. This issue has now been resolved. The pop-up no longer appears unnecessarily, and the page functions correctly after cancellation.
Connectors
Fixed
Oracle Crawl Now Extracts Table Metadata Correctly
In Oracle Connector, an issue occurred where the crawl process failed to retrieve the list of tables from the Oracle source database, despite the correct GRANT permissions on data dictionary views. The job completed without errors, but did not extract any table metadata. A warning in the job logs indicated that no tables were found. This issue has been fixed, and the crawl process now correctly retrieves table metadata.
Informatica Connector Now Displays Source Filter Query
In Informatica Connector, an issue occurred where the source filter query was not displayed in the Data Catalog summary during crawling and lineage building. This issue has been resolved, and the source filter query is now visible.

Table Columns | Download Failure
In the Table Columns section, downloads failed when column names followed a specific pattern with multiple words. The system now supports all column name formats, and the download feature works without interruption.
Business Glossary
Fixed
Domains | Missing Meta-Write Access
In the Domains section, a role with viewer permission was tagged in the authorized users and roles of a domain. A user who had this role was assigned as a steward but did not receive Meta-write privilege and was unable to update metadata. The issue has been resolved. Now, when a user is assigned as a steward, Meta-write privilege is provided on the domain, even if the role has viewer permission.
Lineage
Fixed
Tableau | Missing Data Sources
In a key dashboard, data sources were missing due to incorrect or broken connections in the source configuration. This issue has been resolved, and now the system connects to the intended sources, and the dashboard loads the data as expected.
SAP BODS | SQL Not Detected
In the lineage workflow, some SQL was missing due to code parsing issues with non-standard scripts. This affected lineage generation for workflows using data manipulation logic or unsupported SQL operations. The system now identifies these patterns and includes them in the lineage where possible. For workflows that cannot be parsed automatically, manual lineage will be created.

Fixed
Data Catalog Grid View Simple Download
In Data Catalog Grid View, an issue occurred where selecting a specific column filter in Simple View and downloading the results incorrectly exported the entire catalog table. This issue has been resolved. The download now correctly includes only the data matching the selected column filter.
Data Quality Rules
New & Improved
New Filter Column Shows Rule Scheduling Status
The Data Quality Rules Grid View now includes a ‘Has Schedule’ filter column, enabling users to determine the scheduling status of each rule.
- When the filter is set to “Yes”, only rules that have an automated schedule configured will be displayed.
- When set to “No”, only rules without an automated schedule will be shown.
Schedule
Fixed
Bulk Selection Limit in Schedule Module
In the Schedule module, an issue occurred where selecting more than 350 Data Quality Rule schedules in bulk via the cron entry filter resulted in a 401 error. This issue has been resolved, and users can now bulk-select and schedule over 350 rules without any issues.
Data Classification
Fixed
Auxiliary Term Approval Behavior Corrected
In Data Classification, an issue where approving a recommendation by clicking the 👍 icon incorrectly replaced the existing Primary Term with the Auxiliary Term from the recommendation. This behavior has been corrected. Approving an Auxiliary Term recommendation no longer replaces the Primary Term defined in the glossary.

Fixed
Report Preview Tab Fails to Load for Tableau Reports
In the Data Catalog, the report preview tab for Tableau reports failed to load and remained in a continuous loading state. This occurred because the Host Name in the connection details included the protocol (http://). This issue has now been resolved. The report preview tab now loads Tableau reports as expected.
Lineage
Fixed
Exclude Relationship Generation from Lineage Building
The lineage building process experienced severe performance degradation when processing datasets exceeding 100,000 records due to the inclusion of relationship generation. This issue prevented successful lineage builds for large datasets. The process has now been optimized by excluding relationship generation for all relevant connectors.
Advanced Job
Fixed
Conversion of Object Description URLs
During metadata migration through an advanced job MigrateDescriptionsFromAlation, object descriptions contained clickable links referencing other objects in the source system’s format. These URLs required conversion to the target system’s format to maintain references. A logic was implemented to parse and update the URLs during migration. This issue has now been resolved.
Build Lineage from Extracted Queries
The advanced job Lineage.build.relationships experienced significant delays in execution. After completion, some codes still remained in an Unprocessed status. The job also showed a killing status while continuing to run in the backend without visible errors in the logs. This issue has now been resolved. The job now completes within the expected time and processes all codes successfully. The job now correctly converts all URLs to maintain valid references in the target system.
Connectors
Fixed
Dell Boomi | Lineage Build Errors for Certain Components
In the Dell Boomi Connector, the lineage build has failed for certain components due to REST API calls in the lineage job. The issue was limited to specific tables and could not be tested earlier due to a lack of access to the client’s service account. The REST API calls have now been moved to the connector crawl job. This issue has now been resolved, and the lineage build completes successfully.
BigQuery | Parse Failures During Lineage Build
During the lineage build for the BigQuery connector, some SQL queries failed to parse while others processed successfully with associations. The failures occurred because certain keywords and functions are not currently supported in OvalEdge. This issue has now been resolved, and the lineage build completes successfully.

Data Quality Rules
Fixed
Count Missing for Codes Objects in Data Catalog
The Data Catalog page failed to show the Data Quality Rules count for Codes objects due to inconsistent display logic for existing and new data. Counts either appeared as 0 or stayed blank. This issue has been fixed, and the correct counts now display for all relevant Codes objects.
"Oops Technical Error" When Creating Custom View with "Has Schedule" Column
In the Data Quality Rules (DQR) page, creating a custom view that included the "Has Schedule" column caused an "Oops technical error" and prevented the page from loading. This occurred due to incorrect handling of the column in custom views. This issue has now been resolved, and the DQR page loads as expected when creating views with the "Has Schedule" column.
"Is Scheduled" Field Displays Incorrect
In the Data Catalog, when users added a schedule to Data Quality Rules from the Rule Recommendations or Rule Summary pages, the "Is Scheduled" field for the Recommended Rules incorrectly displayed as "NO" after creating a view with that schedule. This occurred due to incorrect display logic for scheduled recommended rules. This issue has now been resolved, and the "Is Scheduled" field correctly reflects the schedule status.
Automated Scheduling Missing for Some Data Quality Rules
In the Data Catalog, some Data Quality Rules did not have automated scheduling enabled. This occurred due to gaps in job-level configurations across modules. This issue has now been resolved, and automated scheduling is now applied to all relevant Data Quality Rules.
Data Quality Rules Not Displayed for Objects in Field-Level Query Parameters
In the Data Catalog, Data Quality Rules were not displayed at the object level when the object was added to field-level query parameters, even though the rule count appeared at the catalog level. This issue has now been resolved. Data Quality Rules are correctly displayed for all relevant objects.
Data Classification
Fixed
Unable to Identify Users Who Accepted or Rejected Recommendations in Data Classification Reports
In the Governance App’s Data Classification module, users could not identify who accepted or rejected recommendations from reports. The only way to find this information was by manually checking each term individually. This issue has now been resolved. The system now displays the associated user directly in the Data Classification Reports screen, allowing quick identification of who accepted or rejected each recommendation.
Lineage
Fixed
Lineage Gaps for Dashboards Not Connecting to Sources
In some cases, dashboards showed lineage gaps where source connections were missing. This happened due to issues like resident tables not linking to some files, and temporary objects being used as sources instead of the intended data warehouse. This issue has now been resolved. Lineage is now correctly established, and source connections display as expected.
Connectors
Fixed
Incorrect Source Selection in Power BI Lineage
The lineage process in Power BI incorrectly identified temporary tables as the main source instead of the original tables. This caused inaccurate source mapping in the lineage view. The logic has now been corrected to ensure that the original tables are consistently identified as the main source.
Salesforce Profiling Errors in SaaS Environment
Profiling the Salesforce connector schema through Bridge in the SaaS environment failed due to invalid JSON parsing. When certain column properties (not aggregatable, filterable, or groupable) triggered a 400 error, the system expected a JSONObject but received a JSONArray. This handling gap occurred only with Bridge and caused profiling errors for affected columns. The issue has been fixed by updating Bridge logic to handle the JSONArray response and improving validation to display clear error messages.

In Business Glossary List View, an issue occurred where filtering a Custom Field column excluded entries with "None" values, but the results still displayed those entries. This issue has been fixed, and the Custom Field column filter now functions correctly as expected.
Data Classification
New & Improved
User Identification for Accepted Recommendations
In Data Classification, users could not identify the user who accepted recommendations from the Recommendations page or the Data Catalog Reports Grid View. To check this status, users had to open each term manually.
Data Classification Reports objects Grid View now displays ‘Associate By’ (user list) and ‘Associated Method’ (E.g., AI Recommendation, Manual), with filtering options to identify who accepted or rejected recommendations.
Data Quality
Fixed
Accurate Row Counts in Custom SQL Data Quality Rules
In Data Quality Rules, an issue occurred where a custom SQL Data Quality Rule returned incorrect values for passed, failed, and total row counts after execution. This issue has been resolved, and the rule now displays accurate counts.
Function Filter Now Works Correctly
In the Data Quality Rules Grid View, an issue occurred where the Function column filter displayed duplicate entries when both Null Data Density and Data Density were selected. Additionally, the selected functions could not be unchecked after applying the filters. This issue has been resolved, and the filter now works correctly without duplicates and allows selections to be removed.
Load Metadata from Files
Fixed
Multiple Values Blocked When Single-Select Is Set
In LMDF | Table Columns | Code Custom Fields, an issue occurred where multiple values could be uploaded through the template even when Multiple Select was set to 'No.' These values appeared on the Data Catalog summary page without restriction. This issue has been fixed. When Multiple Select is set to No, uploading multiple values is prevented, and an alert message appears.

Duplicate Entries in Certification Metrics
In the Governance Catalog, duplicate entries appeared for some certification reports, leading to inaccurate certification metrics. The issue occurred when multiple certification requests were triggered simultaneously. The system now handles concurrent actions correctly and maintains accurate certification data.
Data Catalog
Fixed
Text Custom Field “Equals” Filter Option
In Data Catalog, the “Equals” condition was missing for custom text fields in certain filter views, limiting exact match searches. This inconsistency between standard and custom filter menus has been resolved, enabling precise filtering for all custom fields.
Endorsement Field Filter Conditions
In Data Catalog, filter conditions for the endorsement field were not applied correctly, preventing accurate filtering. The system now applies all conditions in the filter interface, enabling precise filtering for all endorsement scenarios.
Lineage
Fixed
MicroStrategy | Delta Lineage Job Includes Reports
In MicroStrategy, reports with a failed lineage status were not included in the delta lineage job. These reports now appear in the advanced job process, allowing lineage to be built from the interface.
Informatica | Query Parsing
In Informatica mappings, specific queries could not be parsed, preventing lineage from being built. The parsing logic has been improved, ensuring all queries are processed correctly and lineage generation succeeds.
Informatica PowerCenter | Connection Info Display
In Informatica PowerCenter, connection information was missing at the mapping level when query parameters were present. The system now displays connection names correctly for all mappings.

New & Improved
Session Expiry Enforced for Closed Tabs
During session handling, all sessions remained active even when the browser tab was closed without logging out. When the application was reopened, users were redirected to the home page without entering credentials, which created a security risk.
Session handling has been improved to enhance security. If a browser tab is closed without logging out, the session is now terminated, and users are required to log in again when reopening the application.
Data Catalog
Fixed
File Column Data Now Displays Correctly
In Data Catalog, an issue occurred where data in the File Column tab appeared corrupted after opening it in the newly created view. This issue has been resolved, and the File Column tab now displays data correctly.
ROPA
Fixed
Associated Data Displays Correctly After Back Navigation
In ROPA | Processing Activity | Associated Data | Databases, an issue occurred where clicking Quick View in the schema and then using the browser’s Back button caused the associated data to disappear, even after refreshing the page.

Catalog File Option Not Working in SharePoint File Explorer
In the SharePoint connector, the "Catalog File" option in File Explorer was not working. When users selected a file to catalog, the screen kept loading continuously, and the file was not cataloged. This issue has now been resolved. Users can now catalog files from the SharePoint File Explorer and view the data.
BigQuery Profiling Jobs Stopping Automatically
In the BigQuery connector, profiling jobs stopped automatically after running for 24 hours. When users retried profiling with the Profile Unprofiled option, the jobs still took more than 24 hours and showed several errors and warnings. This happened because errors during large-scale profiling were not handled properly. This issue has been resolved. Profiling jobs now finish within the expected time, and all errors are clearly logged for easy troubleshooting.
Snowflake | Nullable Property Displayed Incorrectly in Data Catalog
The Data Catalog always showed the Nullable property as "No" for all connector columns. This happened because the mapping logic did not check the actual schema definition (NULL or NOT NULL). The issue has been fixed, and the Nullable property now correctly reflects the database schema.

The test framework has been updated to include new scenarios for recent changes in connector functionality. It now covers end-to-end workflows, error handling, and performance checks for RDBMS, ETL, and reporting connectors. These enhancements help maintain accurate results and consistent connector behavior.
Governance Catalog
Fixed
Steward Display in Governed Data Query
In the Governance Catalog > Governed Data Query page, when editing an existing Governed Data Query using the Edit option from the actions menu, the Steward field appeared empty, making it challenging to confirm ownership. The system now displays the correct Steward information during the edit process to ensure clarity and accuracy.
Connectors
Fixed
DataStage Query Parsing
In the IBM InfoSphere DataStage connector, specific queries failed to parse, which resulted in job errors and incomplete lineage. The parsing logic now handles these queries correctly, allowing all jobs to run without errors and lineage to build as expected.
BigQuery Lineage Build Parse Failures
In the BigQuery connector, some views with complex SQL structures failed during lineage build and displayed a "Parse Failed" status. The parser now supports BigQuery-specific SQL syntax and complex view structures, ensuring lineage builds without errors.
Oracle Lineage Build Parse Failures
In the Oracle connector, certain views failed to parse during lineage build and returned a "Parse Failed" status. The parsing logic now supports complex SQL structures in Oracle views, enabling complete lineage generation.

Fixed
Jobs Start in Proper Order with Concurrency Limit
In Jobs, an issue occurred when multiple jobs triggered simultaneously. If one job was running and another was in the INIT state, starting a new job caused the INIT job to transition to the RUNNING state, while the new job entered the INIT state. This created a repeating cycle where each new job waited in INIT until an existing job finished.
The scheduling logic has been corrected. Jobs now start in the proper order based on the configured concurrency limit.
Connectors
New & Improved
Enhanced Session and Mapping Metadata Display
In Informatica Connector, the metadata at the session level did not display any override queries or source filters applied, which prevented users from seeing the full context of the data and potentially led to confusion or misinterpretation.
Now, the metadata visualization has been enhanced at both the session and mapping levels, providing a clear tabular representation of all collected information. Required queries are now displayed directly in the session and mapping summary, eliminating the need to navigate multiple levels in the OvalEdge application.
Metadata from the source is appended (subject to availability) with clear separation between session and mapping levels, while transformations are linked at the mapping level without modifications.
Crawl Captures SELECT Statements in Mapping Associations
In Informatica Connector, certain SELECT statements in session tasks were not displayed in the mapping associations after the crawl. As a result, users were unable to view the complete lineage of data transformations.
Now, the crawling process has been enhanced to check the source code of session tasks. During lineage building, all relevant SELECT statements are now correctly captured and displayed in the mapping associations.
Fixed
Duplicate Objects Removed During Crawl
In the ADF Connector, an issue occurred where duplicate ADF objects appeared when the connector was crawled. Duplicate Factories and Pipelines were created, especially after migration to the AKS environment. This issue has been resolved, and crawling now captures objects without duplication.

Errors While Building Lineage for Dell Boomi Components
Lineage building for Dell Boomi components previously failed due to undeployed processes, XML parsing errors, and API timeouts. This issue has been resolved by implementing retry logic for 503 errors, enhancing XML parsing, and handling undeployed processes during the crawling process. Lineage for Dell Boomi components now builds successfully without errors.
Performance Issue During Lineage Build for Tableau Reports
Lineage building for Tableau report groups previously experienced severe performance degradation, taking 18–46 hours to complete. The issue was caused by inefficient processing of column-level lineage during extraction. The issue has been resolved by optimizing query execution and improving the lineage build logic. Lineage for Tableau reports now completes within expected timeframes.
Amazon QuickSight Lineage Support
Datasets in Amazon QuickSight built on Athena, PostgreSQL, and Redshift sources, including file-based and custom SQL datasets, previously lacked end-to-end lineage visibility. This issue has been resolved by enabling independent crawling of dashboards, datasets, and analyses to ensure all assets are captured. Lineage now extends to both file-based and custom SQL sources with initial support at the object level. Users can view the complete lineage from source systems into Amazon QuickSight.
Build Lineage from Extracted Queries Fails on New Syntax Patterns
The Build Lineage from Extracted Queries job failed to complete successfully due to exceptions triggered by newly introduced syntax patterns that the parser could not process. The job ended with a partial success status. The parser has been enhanced to handle these syntax patterns, ensuring the job now runs to full completion with accurate results.
Reports Lineage Build Failure
In the Data Catalog, lineage building for reports previously failed during execution when creating a connection and generating lineage. This issue has been resolved, and lineage for reports now builds successfully.
Connectors
Fixed
Redshift | Parse Failed Codes
In Redshift, several queries previously failed with parse errors because the parser did not handle cases with only CALL statements and procedures with nested associations. All failed queries were analyzed, and fixes were applied. The parser now processes these queries correctly.
DataStage | Files Not Processed During Crawling
In DataStage, files were not processed during the crawling operation, resulting in excluded metadata from the results. The issue occurred because the crawler did not recognize file types. The crawler now identifies and processes files, ensuring the metadata is included in the crawl results.
Advanced Jobs
Fixed
SQL Server | Advanced Job Failure
The Mapping Between User Interface and Database Advanced Job failed to execute for SQL Server, even though all required custom fields were verified and the DBO schema was successfully crawled.

Searches with @ annotation, schema names, and the * operator now return results as expected.
Missing Filter Option for “Term” Column in Report Columns Tab
In the Data Catalog, the “Term” column in the Report Columns tab previously did not provide a filter option. This prevented users from filtering report columns based on associated business terms. The issue has been resolved, and the “Term” column now includes a functional filter option, allowing users to filter and refine results as expected.
Lineage
Fixed
Lineage Gaps for SAP BO Universes Aliases
Lineage building for SAP BO reports previously failed to connect aliases to their corresponding data warehouse tables. Aliases were treated as standalone objects, rather than being mapped to the actual tables. This resulted in incomplete lineage, where traceability stopped at the alias level. The issue has been resolved by correcting the logic to recognize and link Universe aliases with their corresponding warehouse tables. Lineage for SAP BO reports now connects aliases to the true sources, providing complete traceability.
Lineage Build Failure for SAP BO Reports
In SAP BO reports, lineage failed to build even though source queries were available. No error messages appeared, but lineage generation did not complete. The issue was caused by incorrect handling of schema and table names containing dots (.) and by intermittent null pointer exceptions. This issue has been resolved. Fixes were applied to ensure that schema-table parsing is handled correctly, and additional logging was added for improved debugging. Lineage now builds successfully without failure.
Advanced Job for Temporary Lineage Correction in Bulk Merging
Lineage correction for tables linked through temporary schemas previously required manual fixes. After rebuilding, tables from temporary schemas reappeared as temporary lineage even when matching tables existed in the target schema. An advanced job has now been introduced to handle bulk merging. The job automatically matches tables from temporary schemas with corresponding tables in the target schema when names align. If names do not match, those entries remain unchanged. This enhancement enables accurate and efficient correction of large-scale lineages.

Data Catalog
Fixed
No Logout During Detailed Download File Access from Jobs
In Data Catalog and Business Glossary, an issue occurred where, after the Detailed Download job completed successfully, clicking the file listed in the Jobs section caused an unexpected logout. This issue has been resolved. Accessing the file now works without logging out the session.
Assigned Tags Visibility in File Columns Grid View
In Data Catalog | File Columns, an issue occurred where tags assigned to File Column objects were not visible in the File Column Tags filter Grid View. This issue has been resolved. Assigned tags now display correctly in the filter view.
Accurate Filtering for Empty and Non-Empty Date Fields
In the Data Catalog | Tables Grid View, an issue occurred when applying the Empty or Non-Empty filters to Last Crawl Date, Last Modified Date, and Created Date, displaying the error message “Invalid Date.” This issue has been resolved. The filters now correctly display records based on whether the date fields are empty or non-empty.
Date Range Filters Work Correctly in Tables Grid View
In the Data Catalog | Tables Grid View, an issue occurred where applying the 'Within Range' or 'Not Within Range' filters displayed "Invalid Date," even when valid input was provided. This issue has been resolved. Filters now correctly display records that fall within or outside the specified date range, and valid input no longer triggers "Invalid Date" messages.
Text Search Restored for Business Description in Report Columns
In Data Catalog | Reports Column Grid View, an issue occurred where the Business Description field in the Report Columns tab displayed a filter option (such as “Equals” or “Is Empty”) instead of allowing direct text search. This issue has been resolved. The field now supports direct text search for business description values.
Business/Technical Description Saves Without Extra Text
In the Data Catalog Object Summary, there was an issue where saving an updated Business or Technical Description appended unwanted text. For example, entering a description like "Customer purchase data for Q3 analysis" would incorrectly save as "Customer purchase data for Q3 analysis powered by Froala Editor." This issue has been resolved now and only the user-entered text is saved and displayed.
Jobs
Fixed
Large Job Logs Download Without Errors
In Jobs, an issue occurred where downloading logs for jobs with large output failed due to memory exhaustion and timeout errors when processing large log files. This issue has been resolved, and large job logs can now be downloaded successfully.
Data Classification Reports
Fixed
Business Description Empty Filter Behavior Corrected
In Data Classification Reports under the Reports tab, an issue occurred where the empty filter in the Business Description field did not function correctly. Objects with no business description were incorrectly displayed as "No Data Exists." This issue has been fixed. Applying the empty filter now correctly displays objects that do not have a business description.
Lineage
Fixed
Denodo Lineage Job Code Visibility Corrected
In Advanced Tools | Build Auto Lineage, an issue occurred where the Denodo lineage job did not display the corresponding code in the Query Sheet, and the same code was missing from the lineage records. This issue has been resolved. The code now appears correctly in both the Query Sheet and the lineage records.
Unity Catalog Column-Level Lineage Displays Accurately
In Advanced Tools | Build Auto Lineage, an issue occurred where selecting the Unity Catalog connector caused column-level lineage to display incorrectly. This issue has been resolved. Column-level lineage now appears accurately.

Data Catalog
Fixed
Profiling Status Column Sorts Alphabetically
In the Data Catalog | Tables Grid View, an issue occurred where the Profiling Status column did not sort in alphabetical order. This issue has been fixed, and the column now sorts correctly in alphabetical order.
Enhanced Search in Object Summary Descriptions
In Data Catalog | Object Summary Descriptions, an issue occurred where the search functionality did not work when using the @ annotation in combination with schema selection, “connection name.schema” format, or the * operator. This issue has been resolved, and the search now functions correctly with these options.
Search and Sort Functions Work as Expected
In the Data Catalog Objects Grid View, an issue occurred where the Search and Sort functions did not work as expected for specific fields. This issue has been resolved, and these functions now work correctly for all fields.
No Expansion of Column Field on Sort
In the Data Catalog | Report Column Grid View, an issue occurred where the "Column" field expanded unexpectedly when sorted by Popularity or Importance. While sorting worked correctly, the field size changed during the action. This issue has been fixed, and the "Column" field no longer expands when sorting by either Popularity or Importance.
Lineage
Fixed
Lineage Details Show Query and Mappings
In Quicksight Dashboard Lineage, an issue occurred where clicking the lineage details link displayed column mappings but did not show the associated query. This issue has been resolved, and the query now displays correctly, along with the column mappings.
Duplicate Lineage Entries Eliminated
In the Quicksight Dashboard | Lineage tab, an issue occurred where the lineage from the dashboard was displayed twice. This duplication issue has been fixed, and the lineage now appears only once for the correct sheet.
S3 File Locations Restored for Lineage
In Quicksight, an issue occurred where S3 parameters were available, but file locations appeared as 0 in Job Logs, preventing lineage from being built for the data source files. This issue has been fixed, and file locations now display correctly, enabling lineage to generate as expected.
Connectors
Fixed
HashiCorp Vault Connector Now Validates Successfully
In Connectors, an issue occurred where validation of the HashiCorp Vault connector failed with the error message “Exception occurred while connecting to the Bridge Server.” This issue has been resolved, and the connector now validates successfully.

Fixed
SailPoint Integration | User Provisioning to OvalEdge
A customer required an integration to authorize user provisioning actions from SailPoint to OvalEdge. The request included the ability to add, update, and remove users directly through SailPoint. The integration has been implemented and verified. It now supports user provisioning from SailPoint to OvalEdge as expected.
Data catalog
Fixed
Sort and Search Not Working for Certain Fields
In the Data Catalog list page, the Sort and Search functionalities did not work for specific fields.
- Tables: Created Date
- Table Columns: Profile Date, Last Crawl Date, Created Date, Last Modified Date
- File Columns: Data Quality Score, Created Date, Last Modified Date
- APIs: Created Date
- API Attributes: Created Date, Last Modified Date
The issue has been resolved. Sort and Search now work correctly for all affected fields.
Data Quality Rule
Fixed
"Last Run On" & "Duration" Columns Sorting Not Working
The "Last Run On" and "Duration" columns did not sort correctly. Sorting showed as applied, but the data appeared unordered or displayed gaps between results. The issue has been fixed, and the columns now sort dates correctly in both ascending and descending order.
Advanced Job
Fixed
Alation URL Conversion Failed Due to Missing Double Quotes
When running an Alation URL conversion advanced job, links failed to migrate correctly because double quotes were missing between the attributes in the HTML. The issue was resolved by correcting the link format, re-uploading the descriptions, and re-running the migration advanced job. URLs now convert successfully into the OvalEdge format.
Lineage
Fixed
Redshift Views | Lineage Parse Failed
During lineage build for the Redshift connector, some complex views failed to parse and were marked with “Parse Failed” status. The issue occurred when views contained leading comments, non-standard NOTNULL usage, or the := operator. This resulted in invalid SQL during normalization, and lineage for those views was therefore skipped. The parsing logic has been updated to handle comments, normalize NOTNULL to IS NOT NULL, and process the := operator correctly. Lineage now builds successfully for all affected views.
Lineage Not Built for Views
In Denodo, lineage was not built for views because the raw view code was missing. This prevented the accurate generation of lineage and limited the traceability of view-level dependencies. This issue has been resolved. Lineage for views now builds correctly, and the raw view code is included as expected.
Lineage Displayed as Manual After Automatic Build
In Informatica, when lineage was automatically built for jobs using the Build Lineage option, the lineage was displayed as "Manual" after the build completed. This created confusion in identifying whether lineage was generated automatically or added manually. This issue has been resolved. The lineage built through the Build Lineage option now displays correctly as 'Automatic'.
Connectors
Fixed
DBT Cloud Connector Crawl Failure
While crawling the DBT Cloud connector, the job failed with the error “Dataset not found or Dataset access denied.” This occurred despite the service account having Admin-level permissions on all projects. As a result, metadata ingestion was not completed, and the datasets were not fetched into the catalog. This blocked data discovery, lineage, and catalog visibility. This issue has been resolved. Crawls now complete successfully, and datasets are fetched into the catalog without errors.
