Self-Service Tools
The Data Catalog offers user-friendly self-service tools for streamlined and simplified processes. These tools facilitate various essential actions, including the seamless integration of service requests through the intuitive Service Desk feature. Additionally, the Certifications module certifies data objects, ensuring enhanced data reliability and trustworthiness. The Watchlist feature allows one to monitor specific data objects closely, staying updated on any relevant changes or updates.
Add Data Objects to My Watchlist

Add Data Objects to Projects
Add to Project enables adding the current data object to the default project or selecting a relevant project from the list. Projects serve as a collaborative workspace for a group of users, facilitating work on the data object’s quality and content, tracking activity progress, or managing tasks. A data object may be assigned to one or more projects in a Data Catalog.

Add Data Objects to Access Cart
When the Access Cart is set as the default project, it serves as a centralized access request management system. Meta-Read/Meta-Write privileges can add multiple data objects to the cart and raise access requests in bulk, simplifying management and tracking access permissions for the selected data objects.
Raise Service Requests on Data Objects
The Service Desk assists in initiating service requests, overseeing them, and monitoring their complete lifecycle, from initiation to fulfillment. Business users can request data access to data objects or modify metadata content in the Data Catalog, ensuring smooth and efficient data-related operations.
