Automatic Change Requests
The Axon Administrator might configure change requests to start automatically when you create or modify an object. An automatic change request starts a workflow that requires mandatory approval for the object. This ensures that the right stakeholders can provide inputs to the object, and all changes are approved by the authorized people.
To configure an automatic change request, see the Axon Data Governance 7.2.1 Administrator Guide.

Axon creates automatic change requests when you create, modify, or delete objects from the Axon interface. If you use bulk upload templates to create, modify, or delete objects, Axon automatically raises change requests.
Enterprise Data Catalog Facets
You can configure automatic change requests to trigger for Axon systems that you create while you link them to Enterprise Data Catalog resources. You can also configure automatic change requests to trigger for Axon data sets and attributes that you create or edit while you link them to Enterprise Data Catalog physical fields. An automated change request is triggered when you create systems, create data sets and attributes, and edit existing data sets to create attributes from the following areas:
- •Resources
- - When you manually link an Axon system to an Enterprise Data Catalog resource from the Create > Manage Catalog Links > Resources page.
- •Physical Fields
- - When you manually link an Axon attribute to an Enterprise Data Catalog physical field from the Create > Manage Catalog Links > Resources page.
- - When you manually link all the Enterprise Data Catalog physical fields of a parent at once to Axon attributes from the Create > Manage Catalog Links > Resources page.
- - When you link an Axon attribute to an Enterprise Data Catalog physical field from the System > Enterprise Catalog > Physical Fields page.
- - When attributes are onboarded into data sets during automated onboarding.
