# Browser Extension

The browser extension integrates OvalEdge with supported web-based applications, allowing users to access data catalog objects, view glossary terms, open saved bookmarks, report data issues, and validate certifications for tables or reports.

{% endhint %}

**Key Features:**

* **Explore Data Catalog and Glossary Terms:** Users can search and view data catalog objects (e.g., tables, reports) and glossary terms directly within their browser.&#x20;
  * **Example:** If a user is reading a report on a data analytics platform, they can instantly search for related glossary terms or data objects in OvalEdge without switching between applications.
* **Navigate Saved Bookmarks:** The extension allows users to bookmark important pages or objects within OvalEdge for quick access.&#x20;
  * **Example:** If a user frequently refers to a report about sales data, they can save it as a bookmark within the browser extension for easy access in the future.
* **Report Issues on Data Objects:** If a user encounters an issue with a data object, such as outdated or incorrect information, they can report it directly from the extension.
  * **Example:** If a user notices a discrepancy in a financial report, they can submit a data quality issue through the extension, providing the relevant details and context.
* **Certification Validation:** The extension helps validate the certification status of tables or reports.&#x20;
  * **Example:** If a user is working with a report in Power BI, they can check its certification status—whether it is approved, under review, or needs improvement—directly within the application where they are viewing the data.
