How to Unassign Assets from Data Products in Microsoft Purview at Once
Hello, I’ve assigned around 100 assets to a specific data product and would now like to unassign all of them at once, rather than removing them individually. Using the Purview REST API with Python, I was able to retrieve the list of my data products and successfully identify the target data product. However, I haven’t been able to fetch the list of assets currently assigned to it, which prevents me from performing a bulk unassignment. Could anyone please advise how to retrieve and unassign all assets from a data product programmatically?
Purview workspace scan: table visible but metadata not ingested
I'm copying gold tables from a dev workspace lakehouse to a user workspace warehouse in Fabric. The copied tables appear correctly in the warehouse, but when I run a Purview scan on the entire user workspace, all metadata is ingested except for one specific table. All other warehouse objects scan successfully - only this particular copied table is missing from Purview. What could cause this selective scanning issue?
Custom Attributes with 1 to Many relationship
Hi All, I am looking to enhance an asset (report) by adding custom metadata fields, such as subscription details. However, each report can have multiple subscriptions, creating a one-to-many relationship. Since managed attributes do not support this, what is the recommended approach to address this in Purview?Data product search is broken: no results for partial terms
Searching for data products using partial terms returns zero results, despite the existence of data products with matching names. For example, searching for 'risk' yields no results even though we have three data products that have 'riskscores' in their names. I have created a support ticket, and was told that the PG has stated this behavior was by design. I just can't wrap my head around this statement. Search is the reason why data catalog tools are popular and help democratize data, and this type of searching doesn’t really help to make the data products discoverable. A feature request was created (3135) but I was also asked to post here for visibility. Here's some proof:
Cannot see Data Map and Unified Catalog in the free version of Microsoft Purview
Hey, I am trying to setup a data connection in the free version of Microsoft Purview. However, I cannot see the Data Map and Unified Catalog features. Is this the intended limitation of the free version? Or do I miss something?Feature request: Get rid of "Welcome to new Microsoft Purview portal" screen
Any new user of Purview DGS will be shown this screen: I strongly believe this should be an admin led tenant-wide decision, and not an 'any new user on it's own decision'. The screen is confusing and completely unnecessary for new users with "Global Catalog Reader" permissions only. The problem with this screen is that it results in some users landing in the classic portal, while all documentation and training materials that we share are based on the new portal. My suggestions would be to move this option to 'settings'. After all, as Microsoft, you want your users to use the new portal too, right? P.S. in the meantime, please get rid of the homepage and move all that under a 'getting started' page: Catalog homepage improvements are urgently needed | Microsoft Community Hub
Building a ChatGPT like app on top of Purview catalog data
We've started experimenting with the Purview catalog and added some governance domains and data products. This helps us build up a rich source of meta data especially when linked with the glossaries and data assets. However, what we really want to get to is a solution where users can ask a question based on their objective and get told which report to run / website to access etc, like you would do with ChatGPT. The Purview CoPilot seems to be focussed on security as far as I can tell. I've got an idea that this can be achieved by using the Atlas APIs (confirmed by ChatGPT) but was wondering if this is something anyone else has done, if there is a sample app out there anywhere, or just if there's a better way of achieving our objective?Challenges adding large numbers of assets to a Data Product in Unified Catalog
The client's needs oblige us to add the tables from a SQL database into the data product; they've also got a use case for a massive file share. We are hitting a wall in finding a programmatic solution to bring these data map assets into the Product, and the portal fails when trying to add more than 100 objects at a time. Looking for a timeline for the release of APIs and tools to address this?Purview Data Governance: Grant access to business consumers search Unified Catalog "Data products"
Hello Team, I am in Microsoft purview as regular users (business Consumer) to search in Unified Catalog for organization data associated to customers. The administrator told me they granted me the following roles: Data Map collection: Data Reader Governance Domain: Local Catalog Reader. Governance domain Published Data product published: I am able to connect to Purview unified catalog > Discovery > Data Asset and see all the data asset in the data map collections. however, When I try to access Purview Unified Catalog > Discovery > Data Product > search keyword "Customers" which is a published data products, I got error 403. Please see the images for the context. the Microsoft documentation is very confusing about how business consumer can access the data products. How can I grant access to regular users to search corporate data in Purview Unified catalog for data products?Guidance on Using Atlas API/Another method to Access External Catalogs via Purview
Hi everyone, I've been looking for documentation on how to use the Atlas API to extract information from external catalogs, but haven't had much luck so far. Could someone point me to examples or resources that show how this is implemented and made accessible to users through the Purview user experience? Thanks in advance! Best regards, Paul
