After your Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services POD is upgraded, the linked data assets in your data collections are replaced with the corresponding Data Governance and Catalog assets You won’t need to manually modify or replace the data collections that were originally comprised of linked data assets.
To simplify your experience, the linked data asset asset type is retired from Data Marketplace.
Note: While creating linked data assets earlier, if you had modified the names or descriptions that were retrieved from the Data Governance and Catalog assets, the modified names or descriptions are now replaced with the business name and description of the corresponding Data Governance and Catalog assets. If a governed asset has no business name and description, the asset's name and description in Data Marketplace will be updated using the technical name and description fields in Data Governance and Catalog.
Commenting on linked assets is also retired and existing comments are no longer available. For the governed assets that replace the linked data assets, you can view and add comments to them only in Data Governance and Catalog.
The following image shows the Integration tab on the Setup page:
If you want to preserve the names, descriptions and chat history of linked data assets, you can use the Retrieve Data Asset API and Retrieve comments on an object API. For more information about how you can use a API to export the details of a linked data asset, see the API Reference help.
You can now add a Data Governance and Catalog asset directly to a data collection in Data Marketplace without needing to first onboard the asset as a linked data asset.
To improve your experience, the asset search capabilities that are available when you try to add an asset to a collection are enhanced. The Search by Source Path option is now replaced with additional filters that improve the precision of the search results.
The following image shows the Add Assets grid on a data collection page:
For more information about how you can add a governed asset directly to a data collection, see the Adding data assets to a data collection topic in the Working With Data Collections help.
You can now view in Data Governance and Catalog whether an asset is added to a data collection in Data Marketplace. For an asset that is added to a data collection, you can view the data collections in Data Marketplace that contain it. You can also view the details of the data collections from the Data Governance and Catalog interface.
For more information, see the Asset Details help in Data Governance and Catalog.
You can now add a Data Governance and Catalog asset directly to a data collection in Data Marketplace using Data Marketplace APIs. You no longer need to create linked data assets before you can add governed assets to your data collections.
Furthermore, the Create Linked Data Asset API (/api/v1/integration/dataAssets/referenced) is retired. If you are using this API in an Application Integration process that invokes Data Marketplace APIs, you will need to restructure your processes around Data Governance and Catalog APIs.
