Coming soon: you'll be able to manage access to business assets using collections.

 

Business assets help describe the business use and context of your data. You can show how data is used by an application service or business process to meet a particular business use case. Until recently, these were managed in Purview as a flat list. Soon you'll be able to store business assets in a collection so these can be curated by the right experts and assigned to physical data. Look for the update on June 8.

 

We've also updated the collection design so that there's more space for working with assets. When you open a collection, the assets inside will be listed on a full panel that includes filters for asset types and source types.
