As a result, names containing common formats such as "Prefix - Term Name" or values with underscores (\_) could trigger validation errors, requiring users to modify naming conventions during creation, updates, API operations, or bulk uploads. With this enhancement, hyphens (-) and underscores (\_) are now supported across applicable object names (Business Glossary, Data Catalog, Tags, and Data Products). Users can create and manage objects using familiar naming formats without validation errors. Validation rules have also been updated to display a clear message listing only the characters that are not allowed, based on the current system configuration. ## Global Search ### Fixed #### Improved Tag Filter Display in Global Search In Global Search, tag values such as Customers could appear as separate filter headers in the left filter panel instead of being displayed under the Tag filter. This made the filter panel appear inconsistent and made it more difficult to identify tag-based filters. The Global Search filter panel has been enhanced to organize tag values under the Tag filter. This improvement provides a more consistent filter structure, simplifies tag-based navigation, and makes it easier for users to locate and apply tag filters when refining search results. #### Resolved Governance Role Filters Displayed Despite Configuration Settings In Global Search, governance role filters such as Owner, Steward, and Custodian continued to appear in the left filter panel even when the search.es.governancerole.filters.optional system setting was configured as Empty. This behavior prevented administrators from hiding governance role filters as intended and resulted in inconsistent filter behavior. The filter display logic has been corrected to follow the configured system setting. Governance role filters are now hidden when the search.es.governancerole.filters.optional setting is set to Empty, ensuring that only the configured filters appear in Global Search results. ## Browser Extension ### New & Improved #### Enhanced Issue Reporting Experience The Browser Extension has been enhanced to simplify issue reporting and improve the overall reporting experience. The **Report** action has been renamed to **Report Issue** to clearly distinguish it from Data Catalog reports and provide better navigation clarity. When reporting an issue, the Browser Extension now automatically captures the active browser URL, eliminating the need to provide source page details manually. Users can also attach up to **three image files (JPEG, JPG, or PNG)**, each with a maximum size of **5 MB**, to provide additional context and help teams investigate and resolve issues more efficiently. Additionally, menu labels have been updated to provide a clearer and more intuitive experience for both registered and guest users. 👉 For more details, see the [Report Context URLs](https://docs.ovaledge.com/release8.2/home/browser-extension/features-and-operations#report-context-urls) section. *** Copyright © 2026, OvalEdge LLC, Peachtree Corners, GA, USA. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.ovaledge.com/release8.2/minor-release/release8.2/release-notes/login-and-home.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
